But the veteran spinner struck in his opening over, gaining his revenge by having Willey caught behind by Davies, and quickly following up with the wickets of Saif Zaib and Lewis McManus as the visitors crumbled to 107-9 despite some spirited late resistance from Andrew Tye .
But Clarke was the first of three wickets to fall for eight runs in 2.1 overs. Alex Hales top-scored with 35 on a tricky batting surface and some typically wily batting from Samit Patel and Tom Moores helped Notts get over the line.Rishi Patel was the star of the show with a magnificent ton as the North Group's bottom side Leicestershire Foxes coasted to a six-wicket victory over Durham to record just their second win in eight matches.
A second-wicket partnership of 159 - Yorkshire's highest for any wicket in a T20 match - with England one-day batter Dawid Malan proved decisive, and although Malan was caught at deep extra cover attempting another big hit, the damage was done. But Clark was stumped by Jamie Smith off Will Jacks - one of the men overlooked by England for the Ashes - to spark a collapse which saw nine Sussex wickets fall for just 75 runs as they were all out for 134 with 31 balls remaining to lose by 124 runs.Birmingham 261-2 v Notts at Trent Bridge, 2022Essex easily defend daunting total
