Yorkshire vs Gloucester, 1st Semi-Final at Leeds, Sep 06 2015 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Gloucester won by 8 wickets (with 19 balls remaining)
5:21pm: Top, top effort from Klinger. He waves his bat in triumph and acknowledges the crowd. After the bowlers launched a fightback, Dent and Klinger began well, laying a solid base in pursuit of 264. Though Dent and Roderick perished relatively quickly, Klinger continued to drive Gloucestershire onward, and found an able ally in Marshall. The pair put on an unbroken 177 runs, pacing the chase expertly. That's all we have for you today. We will be looking forward to your company tomorrow for the second semi-final between Surrey and Nottinghamshire. Until then, buh-bye and cheers.
