Milestone

This is it from the live coverage between Northamptonshire and Lancashire as we conclude this game with the hosts winning it by 7 wickets. That’s it for today from myself Nikhil Kalla alongside my co-commentator Tugral and our scorer/analyst Suresh. See you soon again tomorrow with more games to follow till then stay safe and stay tuned.

NIKHIL: So, we are done here with the hosts winning the game with relative ease as they just had 154 to chase against the visitors in Lancashire.

The Lancashire innings started with a slow pace as the visitors managed to score just 39 runs in the powerplay which laid a dodgy foundation for the star strikers who got going to some extent but even their innings was cut short by some excellent piece of bowling by White. Heldreich once feared getting hit for 6 sixes in an over when David scored 4 back-to-back sixes to him but he escaped that. For the hosts, all the bowlers bowled well but Sanderson was the standout today as he took 3 wickets at a decent enough economy while White chipped in with 2 crucial wickets to support his counterpart.

In reply to the target set by the visitors, the host started in an opposite manner scoring 63 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in the powerplay that laid a good foundation for them to go on and win this game. Curran and Gay started with all guns blazing and scored at a blistering pace. Gay fell short to Lamb as he got out after a quick-fire cameo of 30 while Curran continued and managed to score 50 runs, Joshua Cobb managed to be the top scorer for the hosts as he scored a half-century to get his side going and winning this game.

16.2 M Parkinson to S Zaib
4 FOURR!! Zaib smashes a Winning Run! Full delivery is a bit slower on the middle stump line. Zaib gets down on his knee as he reveres-sweeps it nicely past the short third man region and the ball runs away to the fence for a boundary. Northamptonshire won by 7 wickets!!
16.1 M Parkinson to J Neesham
1 Good length delivery on his off-stump and he has driven this towards cover for a single.

15.6 T David to B Curran
W WICKETT!! That's the game as David gets Curran. Length ball and in the slot, he gets the height and not the distance as the catch is taken by Jones at the deep. Curran departs for 50 off 41 balls as the 3rd one goes for 149 here.
15.5 T David to J Neesham
1 Full delivery on the leg stump, Neesham flicks it towards the leg side for a single.
15.4 T David to J Neesham
4 FOURR!! Flighted delivery on the middle stump line. Neesham down on his knee and reverse sweep this past the short third man for a boundary. Perfectly executed by Neesham.
NIKHIL: That's the half-century here for Ben Curran and he has displayed perfectly how to pace a run chase as he has paced his innings to perfection here. 
15.3 T David to B Curran
1 Fuller delivery on the off, Curran has driven it towards the off side and takes a single. Curran brings up his 1st half-century.
15.2 T David to B Curran

15.1 T David to B Curran
4 FOURR!!! Davis is greeted with a boundary by Curran! Quicker delivery on the leg stump line. Curran swivels and pulls it through a deep fine leg for a boundary.
