While Duckett did connect the ball, it didn't go where he intended it to be. The ball didn't change the direction and struck wicketkeeper Dane Vilas, who was beginning to stand. However, the ball struck Vilas' helmet and changed it direction while being in the air. Vilas was quick to react to where the ball actually went and charged towards and could only complete the catch by diving forward.
It was a remarkable recovery considering how Vilas was in the opposite direction of the ball and had to make quick decisions to get to the ball.
Nottinghamshire ended up posting 179/7 but it wasn't enough for them to defend as Lancashire chased down the target quite convincingly by six wickets and ten balls to spare. While Steven Croft finished the run chase with his 61, Vilas contributed 55 runs in 30 balls to make the chase easier.
