Conquerors of holders Lancashire, Sussex must travel on July 29 to Derby, where the in-form Malcolm claimed seven for 35 in a second-round victory over Northants. Glamorgan, rejuvenated by Pakistan fast bowler Waqar Younis, have a home draw against Yorkshire, Middlesex a home tie against Warwickshire and Nottinghamshire, who beat favourites Surrey, will host Essex.

The dispute between Derbyshire's players and committee following Dean Jones's acrimonious departure must linger on following the postponement of today's appeal by former captain Kim Barnett against club fines of £1,500 for unauthorised media statements on the matter.

The appeal hearing before the England and Wales Cricket Board will now be heard next month. It is understood that Derbyshire's chairman Mike Horton was unable to attend.

Sussex have started trimming their squad by releasing batsman Toby Radford and pace bowler Martin Thursfield.

NATWEST TROPHY.- Qtr-final draw:: Glamorgan v Yorks, Notts v Essex, Derbys v Sussex, Middx v Warwicks. To be played on Tues, July 29.
