Lancashire piled on a staggering 443-6 from their 50 overs in their victory over Somerset at Taunton – a record-breaking total reached thanks in no small part to sizeable hundreds from Jennings and Flintoff.
Opener Jennings hit 156 from 127 balls at the top of the innings to set a ferocious pace as Lancashire posted their highest ever List A score – eclipsing the 406-9 effort against Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge in 2019.
Teenager Flintoff joined in the fun, firing 10 fours and seven sixes on his way to 123 from just 76 balls. There was even time for Jack Blatherwick’s quick-fire cameo of 32 from just 10 balls.
Somerset struggled to cope with the intense scoreboard pressure from the off and found themselves 33-2 when Tom Aspinwall (4-42) removed openers Johnny Connell and Savin Perera.
Tom Lammonby, who racked up 547 runs in this competition, hit 68 more but Somerset were bowled out for 269 as Lancashire advanced.
Surrey openers Ryan Patel and Dom Sibley put on 175 for their side’s first wicket as they took on Nottinghamshire at the Oval, but Munsey’s knock in the chase proved decisive.
Sibley departed for 84 but Patel brought up his century in 91 balls to lay a platform for the hosts, but Nottinghamshire fought back to reduce Surrey to 298-8 following a notable spell from Dillon Pennington (4-54).
Notts lost openers Freddie McCann and Ben Martindale relatively cheaply, but Munsey (138 from 132 balls)) and captain Haseeb Hameed (51) restored control to the visitors’ chase and put on 109 for the third wicket.
Kyle Verreynne’s unbeaten 57 carried Nottinghamshire over the line.
At Rugby School, Warwickshire eased to a comfortable 87-run victory at the expense of Kent, although neither side will advance beyond Group A.
The Bears were bowled out for 263, a total they reached after Vansh Jani’s destructive 98 – the second time he has posted a career-best List A knock in three days.
Matt Milnes (4-52) led the Kent charge to ensure Warwickshire were all out with 29 balls remaining of their innings, having been put in.
Kent found themselves 23-5 after Bears seamer Ethan Bamber (4-29) ran through the top order. There was admirable resistance from Ekansh Singh (40) and Grant Stewart (41), but Kent were bowled out for 176 with a third of their overs unused.
Northamptonshire found themselves 27-2 against Gloucestershire at Cheltenham College but 79 from captain Nathan McSweeney and 75 from George Bartlett stabilised the visitors’ innings.
Dominic Leech helped to elevate the visitors up to 308 having been put in by their hosts when he added 35 before being bowled by Daaryoush Ahmed, who finished with figures of 4-56.
Openers James Bracey and Cameron Bancroft put on 99 to tee up Gloucestershire but they then found themselves 200-5 and still with plenty of work to do.
Ahmed (48) again proved key, this time with bat in hand, as he and Joseph Eckland (68 not out) steered Gloucestershire to their target.
