After Notts confirmed Patel would not be staying with the club beyond 2023 last September, he made sure he quickly came out to say he was “far from retired”.<\/p>\n

And it was not just franchise cricket he was keen to chase around the world, with the all-rounder intent to add to the almost 21,000 runs and more than 700 wickets he took in the English domestic game with Notts.<\/p>\n

“I kind of got written off basically,” Patel said of his Notts departure. “They thought I had to move on and I wasn’t ready to move on from Trent Bridge to he honest.<\/p>\n

“And that is what I\u2019m doing now in the Blast – showing people and trying to prove people wrong really.<\/p>\n

“And the record speaks for itself. If we beat Notts I think they are out of the competition, so there is a lot of things on it.”<\/p>\n

It was only two years ago that Patel’s propensity to excel in this very fixture for Notts was highlighted by the club.<\/p>\n

His match-defining knocks as a “rip-roaring, chest-beating, heart-on-the sleeve Notts Outlaw”, external<\/span><\/a> against Derbyshire were chronicled alongside his record against their fierce rivals – having amassed nearly 600 runs, and taken 30 wickets against them over two decades of T20 meetings.<\/p>\n

“I do like a derby,” Patel said.<\/p>\n

“I think that is what gets me going, to be honest, even if it’s Leicestershire. Whoever we play, I just thrive on it. <\/p>\n

“I just enjoy the moments of being there at the end or doing something special and winning the game for your county. <\/p>\n

“It’s one of those special occasions where I love it.”<\/p>\n

And Friday night under the lights at Trent Bridge is where Patel freely admits he adores his cricket most.<\/p>\n

It is where he grew into a Nottinghamshire legend.<\/p>\n

“And now it’s in a Derby shirt that I’m trying to do the opposite, and trying to turn them over for the second time in a year,” Patel said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
