Hampshire v Gloucestershire 107-7 (Target 141)
James Bracey holds the key here for Gloucestershire. He will have to guide them home.
The run rate is only seven, but they are running out of wickets.
But they can't get seven off Chris Wood's over as his mix of cutters and short balls restricts them to just four.

Leics 214-6 v Northants 213-7
White can only get a couple from the final ball and Leicestershire have held on.
My goodness did that get far closer than they wanted.
Defending 19 from the final over, Ben Mike has done it by the skin of his teeth.
What a game.

Hampshire v Gloucestershire 95-6 (Target 141)
Mason Crane's final over.
Big one from left hander James Bracey as he sends one all the way for six - his first boundary of the evening. Gloucestershire need more.
He looks like getting a four, but a brilliant stop in the deep by Joe Weatherley to save two runs.
They take 13 from the over, which they badly needed.

Hampshire v Gloucestershire 82-6 (Target 141)
Nathan Ellis returns in place of Liam Dawson, but he backs up the left-armer with a very tight over.
Only three conceded and the task is getting steeper with each passing over.

Leics 214-6 v Northants
Naveen-ul-Haq with the penultimate over...
He gets Jimmy Neesham off strike first ball, then a dot to Lewis McManus.
Three runs is perhaps as good as Northants could hope for and Neesham back on strike.
A no-ball helps the cause.
But then only a single more to Neesham and another dot to McManus.
Another no-ball! They take two as well.
And then McManus clears the fence for six!
Northants still alive! Neesham will be on strike.

Gloucestershire ONLY need 62 runs from eight overs. Run rate is not too much of an issue, but wickets in hand is.

NOTTS BEAT DURHAM BY FIVE WICKETSpublished at 21:23 British Summer Time 1 July 2022
BreakingDurham 183-8 v Notts Outlaws
A single to Ben Duckett from a Brydon Carse no-ball is enough to get the job done for Notts Outlaws at the start of the 18th over.
Duckett finishes with 53 not out from 34 balls after he and Joe Clarke (51 off 30) had earlier put on 55 for the second wicket.
The Outlaws cling on to hopes of reaching the quarter-finals - but the results of the games at Headingley and Leicester could yet see them dashed.

Hampshire v Gloucestershire 77-6 (Target 141)
Hampshire firmly in charge now!
Terrific work from Mason Crane as he gets one to take a little nick off Jack Taylor's bat to have the Glos captain caught behind.
The spin twins are turning the screw.
