In the latest round of Twenty20 Cup matches, there were wins for Leicestershire, Warwickshire and Lancashire, while Gloucestershire triumphed over Northants in a game reduced to just 5-overs-a-side by rain.
At Headingley, Darren Maddy smashed 111 off 60 balls with eight fours and two sixes - the highest Twenty20 score by a Leicestershire batsman - as Yorkshire were set an imposing total of 221. Phil Jaques lead their reply with 92 off 49 balls, but despite a late flurry of runs Yorkshire fell 10 short.
Bradd Hogg bowled Warwickshire to victory at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff, taking 4 for 30 as Glamorgan fell 26 runs short of Warwick's 152. Matthew Maynard's 31-ball 53 was the only highlight of Glamorgan's innings, with only two other batsmen - neither of whom reached 20 - making it to double figures.
At Derby, Dinesh Mongia completed his three weeks as Carl Hooper's replacement by guiding Lancashire to a 5-wicket win against Derbyshire - their first victory in all domestic cricket since May 29. Mongia cracked 50 off 34 balls, falling just before the winning runs were it, as Lancs successfully chased Derby's total of 142.
Persistent rain reduced Gloucestershire's game against Northamptonshire to just 5-overs-a-side. James Averis picked up three wickets in his solitary over, and still managed to go for seven runs, as Northants made 42 for 5. Tim Hancock lead Gloucestershire's reply with 28, and despite Carl Greenidge bowling his over for just one run, Gloucs romped home with five balls to spare.
