Worcestershire vs Derbyshire

Worcestershire are rooted to the bottom of the table after another loss - this time to Derbyshire, who picked up a 39-run win in Worcester. Asked to bat, Derbyshire were led by opener Shan Masood's 47-ball 65. Cameos along the line-up ensured they finished with 168 on the board. Minus Brett D'Oliveira (55) and Jack Haynes's 35, no other batter could get even double figures as Derbyshire struck at regular intervals to restrict the hosts to 129/9 in their 20 overs to pick up their fourth win.

Brief scores: Derbyshire 168/7 in 20 overs (Shan Masood 65, Leus du Plooy 27; Moeen Ali 2-24, Dwayne Bravo 2-28) beat Worcestershire 129/9 in 20 overs (Brett D'Oliveira 55, Jack Haynes 35; Hayden Kerr 2-24, Mark Watt 2-28, Matt McKiernan 3-19) by 39 runs.

Leicestershire vs Nottinghamshire

Nottinghamshire cruised to a five-wicket win in Leicester after first bowling out Leicestershire for 123 before chasing down the target in just 13.2 overs. Regular wickets ensured the Leicestershire batters couldn't stitch any significant stands. Wiaan Mulder and Rishi Patel stabilised the innings in the middle after early strikes, but they couldn't regain the lost momentum. In reply, dynamic hands from Alex Hales (44 off 16) and Ben Duckett (44 off 23) had Nottinghamshire comfortable in the chase. They wrapped up the chase in less than 15 overs eventually.

Brief scores: Leicestershire 123 in 18.4 overs (Wiaan Mulder 32, Rishi Patel 28; Luke Fletcher 2-20, Dane Paterson 2-12, Calvin Harrison 2-31) lost to Nottinghamshire 127/5 in 13.2 overs (Alex Hales 44, Ben Duckett 44*; Naveen-ul-Haq 2-21, Callum Parkinson 2-29) by 5 wickets.

Durham vs Lancashire

Durham snuck out a two-wicket win in a low-scorer at Chester-le-Street after a wobble in a chase of 131. Lancashire would've been disappointed to be able to put up just 130 after opting to bat, but they had no answers against the Durham bowlers, who kept them tied down. Andrew Tye and Nathan Sowter returned 3 wickets apiece, while Ben Raine conceded just 18 in his four. Durham, in their chase, were undone by Richard Gleeson's four-wicket haul with just Michael Jones (36) and Ned Eckersley (46) keeping them in the chase. After wickets fell in a clump, it was skipper Liam Trevaskis's unbeaten 7-ball 16 that took them over the line for their third win.

Brief scores: Lancashire 130 in 20 overs (Steven Croft 55; Andrew Tye 3-29, Nathan Sowter 3-22) lost to Durham 131/8 in 19.3 overs (Michael Jones 36, Ned Eckersley 46) by 2 wickets.

Warwickshire vs Yorkshire

Yorkshire sailed into the top half of the table with a 10-wicket win over Warwickshire in Birmingham, chasing down the required 102 runs in just 12.5 overs. The bowlers collectively were impressive as Warwickshire were pegged back early with quick strikes. Chris Benjamin (26), Adam Hose (20) and Jake Lintott (16) were the only ones among the runs to take Warwickshire to a paltry 101 before being bowled out in 16.5 overs. Openers Adam Lyth (58*) and Dawid Malan (38*) didn't break a sweat in their chase and crossed the line rather comfortably in the end as Yorkshire climbed up to the fourth position.

Brief scores: Warwickshire 101 in 16.5 overs (Chris Benjamin 26; David Willey 3-17, Dominic Drakes 2-18, Matthew Revis 2-18, Adil Rashid 2-22) lost to Yorkshire 106/0 in 12.5 overs (Adam Lyth 58*, Dawid Malan 38*) by 10 wickets.

South Group

Kent vs Somerset, South Group

Kent remained at the bottom of the table even after their 32-run win over Somerset after getting to a massive 202 on the back of Jordan Cox's 94 off 47 balls. Somerset opted to bowl but couldn't keep a hold on Cox who attacked from the onset, belting six sixes and three fours in his knock. In reply, Somerset could only manage to get to 170 with all of Kent's six bowlers on the night returning wickets. Skipper Tom Abell (43) and Ben Green (48) kept Somerset in the chase, but eventually too much was left for too late.

Brief scores: Kent 202/7 in 20 overs (Joe Denly 41, Jordan Cox 94; Craig Overton 3-31) beat Somerset 170/9 in 20 overs (Tom Abell 43, Ben Green 40; Fred Klaassen 2-26, George Linde 2-29, Grant Stewart 2-29) by 32 runs.

Hampshire vs Glamorgan

Hampshire defended 134 in Cardiff to pick up their fourth win on the back of Brad Wheal's five-wicket haul with Glamorgan falling just 9 runs short. James Vince and Joe Weatherley's 44 and 46* took Hampshire to 134 before the bowlers did a stunning job in defending the small total. Chris Wood struck in the opening over, but it was Wheal who ran through the middle order returning 5-38. Wood picked up a couple of late wickets to finish with 3-16, shutting shop on Glamorgan's chase.

Brief scores: Hampshire 134/4 in 20 overs (James Vince 44, Joe Weatherley 46*; Andrew Salter 2-18) beat Glamorgan 125 in 19.5 overs (Sam Northeast 36; Chris Wood 3-16, Brad Wheal 5-38) by 9 runs.

Sussex vs Gloucestershire

Gloucestershire climbed up to the fourth spot after an all-round outing versus Sussex, pipping them by just 4 runs in the end. Glenn Phillips's 66 and skipper Jack Taylor's 46 gave Gloucestershire 145 on the board before Sussex's innings came apart with regular wickets, despite a fighting knock from Tom Alsop who kept them in the chase until the 14th over with a 52-ball 82. David Payne and Zak Chappell returned three wickets each as Sussex were eventually bowled out for 141 in 19.4 overs.

Brief scores: Gloucestershire 145/6 in 20 overs (Glenn Phillips 66, Jack Taylor 46; Obed McCoy 2-36) beat Sussex 141 in 19.4 overs (Tom Alsop 82; David Payne 3-17, Zak Chappell 3-19) by 4 runs.

Essex vs Middlesex

Essex tied with Gloucestershire on nine points but went one spot ahead to third after beating Middlesex by 61 runs in Chelmsford. Feroze Khushi's 67 and Paul Walter's unbeaten 58 were instrumental in Essex finishing with 186 on the board. Three-wicket hauls from Samuel Cook and Matthew Critchley thereafter restricted Middlesex to 128 before they were bowled out in 18.2 overs.

Brief scores: Essex 186/6 in 20 overs (Feroze Khushi 67, Paul Walter 58*; Martin Andersson 3-42) beat Middlesex 125 in 18.2 overs (Joe Cracknell 29; Samuel Cook 3-18, Matthew Critchley 3-22) by 61 runs.
