Outstanding effort from Durham, centred around their England stars Ben Stokes and Mark Wood. You felt they were a few short, but Wood produced a spell of spell-binding magnificence. We have a Durham v Northamptonshire final. It's not all about money, you could say. It will be a quick turnaround to the final because of the delays, so we'll take a quick break back and be back with you, on a new page, shortly. Cheers!

Wood to Bresnan, OUT
through him! This is one of great T20 performances. He's done him with the slower ball, at 79mph! Fantastic bowling. Bresnan waiting for the quick one, Wood rolls his fingers across the ball, Bresnan is through his shot and cleaned up.

and how he's struck! Followed Plunkett as he moved to leg, deflects off the pads into the stumps. Another huge moment. They are checking the back-foot no-ball. Tight, but okay

Arshad to Bresnan, SIX runs
just clears Stokes at deep midwicket! Bresnan heaves a full ball from outside off, didn't quite come out of the middle, it's a teasing one for Stokes who isn't right on the rope, tries to leap for it but the ball just clears him

Shashi: "Chiming in with Geoff there regarding English test batsmen. I love the finals day, so much superior to IPL. Three games in a day is just too good. Good on the English for inventing another excellent idea. Thanks for the good coverage, the quality certainly deserves it."
