An explosive century from Ben Geddes put Middlesex on course for an 87 run victory over Derbyshire Falcons at The OurCoop County Ground to take them to the knockout stages of the Metro Bank One-Day Cup.

The Middlesex skipper hit seven sixes in a 93 ball 109, sharing a third wicket stand of 156 with Max Holden who scored 65.

Joe Cracknell scored an unbeaten 44 from 31 balls to lift the Group B leaders to 327 for 6 which proved too much for a depleted Falcons side.

Zafar Gohar took 3 for 35 as Derbyshire collapsed from 82 for 1 to 240 all out despite Caleb Jewell’s 54.
