    And again. Jamie Overton pierces extra-cover for a four off the last ball of Tom Helm's over.

    So then. 12 balls remain. How many are Surrey making?

  9. Not outpublished at 16 overs

    Middlesex v Surrey 155-5

    Martin Andersson makes the catch but does not have the ball under control as he hits the deck. His fingers aren't underneath it.

    A harsh call I reckon, but not out given. Overton survives.

    He's back into form, Jason Roy and it has been fascinating watching him.

    He's played some gorgeous shots.

    He tried to pull that and it came off the bottom edge and it flew back on to his stumps.

    Here's the chance in a way for Middlesex to keep this down to something manageable.

    Middlesex v Surrey 155-5

    Has Martin Andersson taken a stunning caught and bowled to remove Jamie Overton?

    The umpires are taking a look at it.

    Roy b Andersson 81 (Middlesex v Surrey 154-5)

    The BIG wicket.

    Jason Roy goes chasing Martin Andersson but this time under-edges the ball on to his stumps.

    A fabulous innings comes to a close with his 81 coming off 45 balls.

    Jamie Overton is the next batter in.

    Middlesex v Surrey 152-4

    In T20 game number 596, Kieron Pollard gets up and firing, whacking Toby Roland-Jones for a maximum over deep cover.

    Middlesex can't get a break.

    Northants 178-2 (15.5 overs) v Worcestershire

    Steelbacks opener Chris Lynn reaches his second century of this year's competition off just 48 balls!

    It's been another incredible knock from the Australian. Eight fours and eight sixes.

    Beauty from Jason Roy who goes over extra-cover for four and moves on to 80 in the process.

    He's on a mission.

    Narine c Eskinazi b Green 25 (Middlesex v Surrey 138-4)

    Chris Green has the last laugh, squeezing Sunil Narine who digs the ball straight to mid-off.

    Former West Indies captain Kieron Pollard walks out to the crease.

    Middlesex v Surrey 138-3

    Good-looking shots from Sunil Narine who twice chips the ball over leg-slip, reverse-sweeping for four.

    He's now on 25 off 15 and going well.

  19. Postpublished at 13 overs

    Middlesex v Surrey 128-3

    So close!

    Jason Roy gets away with one, inside-edging the ball for four.

    Inches away from chopping on to his own stumps was Roy, who moves on to 76 off 40.

    Wowza from Sunil Narine.

    He takes on the fielder on the long-on boundary and dispatches the ball over the top for six.
