2.36pm Jubilation at the Micky Stewart Oval, and handshakes all round. That was emphatic... would have made a decent Powerplay in the Blast. Burns and Patel make their way back to the Pavilion, and the celebrations can begin with a game to spare! As for Yorkshire, that's a drubbing, and with weirdness afoot in this round of games, the relegation trapdoor opens again. The Championship presentation, incidentally, will take place at Old Trafford next week.

Thanks for joining our County Championship Pop-Up Comms... I'm diving off to Karachi now. Laters!
