    T20 Blast Final
    Northamptonshire
    155 for 6 (Cobb 80, Wakely 43) beat Durham 153 for 8 (Jennings 88, Sanderson 3-31) by four wickets

    Northants have defied injuries, international call-ups and relentless financial problems to secure their second limited-overs trophy since 1992 with victory in the final of the NatWest Blast.
    Reeling at 9 for 3 after 14 balls, Northants were rescued by a brilliant, fearless and powerful innings of 80 in 48 balls from Josh Cobb that helped them to victory with four wickets and five delivers to spare.

    Leicestershire lost their coach and their promotion hopes within a few hours with Andrew McDonald confirming a return to Australia with a year of his contract remaining and Essex inflicting their heaviest defeat of the season.
    McDonald, two years into a three-year deal, has accepted the Victoria coaching position, having already been named as the new Melbourne Renegades coach.

    Jason Gillespie, Yorkshire's head coach, will be leaving the club at the end of the 2016 season to return to his native Australia.
    Gillespie, who was appointed in November 2011, helped guide the club from the second division to back-to-back Championship titles in 2014 and 2015, with the club firmly in the hunt for a third title following last week's victory over Nottinghamshire at Scarborough.
    In the course of 76 Championship fixtures at the helm, he suffered just five defeats
