    Unbeaten Surrey will be looking to stretch their lead at the top of the South Group when they host Sussex Sharks tonight.

    Tonight's opponents Sussex ended a start of two losses with three wins on the bounce, although they did lose to Hampshire is 'El Clasicoast' last time out.

    Which Sharks team will be turning up tonight? Surrey have won the toss and chosen to bowl.

    If anyone can stop Lancashire running away with the North Group, Birmingham Bears can. The West Midlanders have won four and lost two of their matches in the Blast so far.

    They take on Durham who are struggling, having already registered four defeats.

    When these two met in May, Birmingham bruised their way to a five-wicket win with Adam Hose and Chris Benjamin posting an 85-run partnership for the Bears.

    Hosts Durham have won the toss and chosen to bat first.

  3. A repeat of last time's epic?

    Last time out Lancashire and Yorkshire played out an epic thriller that ended in a tie.

    Yorkshire batter Harry Brook was dismissed with the final ball to deny the White Roses a smash-and-grab win.

    Brook (72) and Tom Kohler-Cadmore (67) had taken Yorkshire to the brink of victory before Richard Gleeson trapped the former lbw as they finished on 183-5.

    The pair came together with Yorkshire in trouble on 56-3 after losing Dawid Malan and Joe Root cheaply early on.

    But they put on 115 for the fourth wicket before Kohler-Cadmore was run out and Brook could not quite get his side home.

    In the first innings, opener Phil Salt's 59 from 41 balls had helped Lancashire post 183-7.

    Epic.
