  1. How they got here

    Notts Outlaws v Hampshire Hawks (play starts 19:00)

    Notts Outlaws have reached Finals Day in four of the last five seasons - and lifted the trophy in 2017 and again in 2020.

    Their strength in the format was again evident as they won nine of their 14 games to top Group One, with Alex Hales amassing 463 runs, and three others passing 300, while six different bowlers took 10 or more wickets.

    Hampshire Hawks, by contrast, did it the hard way after winning only one of their opening nine games in June, three of which ended in no-results.

    July brought a change of fortune and five successive wins, culminating in a six-wicket triumph against Glamorgan, when they chased down a target of 184 in just 13 overs, saw them edge out Surrey on net run rate.
