Some great hitting by Freddy and espeically Symmonds taking the Lancashire total to a massive one. Surrey will have to play out of there skins to come close but they do have big hitters too.

hoping for a close match courtesy ali brown, benning and azhar

need sum excitement, getting bored in the office

[Fessal]

26 for no wicket after 3.1 overs. not bad start

[Fessal]

now 43 for 0 after 4.2 overs

[Fessal]

looks like nobody is interested in this match despite some azhar playing. everyone seems to be intersted in indian oil..

anyway surrey are going nicley and the latest is 64: 0 of 6.2 overs
but the pressure is still on surrey as they have to maintain this run rate and keep going. Any wicket losses and slips ups will slow them down.

I think Lancs at the moment are still favourites.

thats a gud run rate...but they have no big hitters in the middle order except for azhar

[z10]

98/1 now

newman is woefully out of form....shud have sent clarke at 3...atleast he keeps the board ticking....

[Fessal]

it still looks a tough ask for surrey and like u said only azhar the big hitter in the middle.

[Fessal]

Surrey 98/1 (9.3 ov)
Surrey require another 120 runs with 9 wickets remaining
Surrey RR: 10.32

[Fessal]

Rain Stopped Play

Surrey 98/2 (9.4 ov) Surrey require another 120 runs with 8 wickets remaining
Surrey RR: 10.14

[Oxy]

I was at 20-20 Finals day last year and it was a great day (and night out)

Same line up this year...except for Glamorgan!!!

[Fessal]

Surrey 113/4 (12.2 ov)

Surrey require another 105 runs with 6 wickets remaining

I can't see surrey winning this now even with azhar and ramps batting, unless they go berzuck and lans bowl a load of rubbish conssitently. too big a task now with over a 100 needed in less than 8 overs.. No way.

[Rob H]

Lancs have won this one now

[Kashif]

Azhar is going beserk, updates plz!!

[Kashif]

Azhar Mahmood 30 (17), 3 4's 2 6's....just got out, game over for Surrey.

[Nauman]

Anyone know the final result, I saw the match till Mahmood got out.

[DesiMD]

surry won by 22 runs..congrats all

[Nauman]

surry won by 22 runs..congrats all

How can Surrey win by 22 runs when they were chasing :13:

[Oxy]

Surrey LOST!! And Im not even watching the game!!!

[Bitman]

Somerset Are The 20-20 Champions!

[Shayan]

Smith batted brilliantly.

[KB]

Smith's captaincy was important. It was very agressive - not something you often say about South African captains. Against a strong batting line-up they attacked and put in the slips even when the fielding restrictions were relaxed.

After good tactics, he then led from the front with an excellent knock.

[Naz]

smith is a great asset to international cricket.
Did anyone watch girls aloud???? how was their performance???

[Oxy]

Watched the highlights programme on Channel 4...I cannot believe I didnt go.

I think the domestic 20-20 tournamet in England is THE number 1 tournament in the world after the World Cup in terms of interest/excitment/attendences etc.
