PLAYER OF THE MATCH
Chris Lynn

That's all for this second semi-final. The final gets underway in less than half an hour. Join us then, bye for now!

Chris Lynn | Player of the Match: One ball at a time, they had some quality seamers but for us it was all about building partnerships. Really happy with my form, but still have one more job to do. I like this jersey, hopefully they'll get me back next year. (On going after six sixes) I was just trying to join Yuvraj and Polly with those six sixes. (Will he keep the pads on now) That's a good way to stay warm, they boys have seen the conditions and will be ready to go, but on the flip side the opposition would be rested for a while.

18:12 Local Time, 17:12 GMT, 22:42 IST: Lynn-sanity at its finest. In a chase of 155, the opener has ruled the roost with a superb century, ending unbeaten with 108 runs (the second highest was James Vince with 12 runs). He found his mojo right from the very start, as he attacked the opposition pacers in the powerplay. Northamphtonshire found some joy with the left-arm spin of Saif Zaib, as he was the pick of the bowlers with 3/18. However, pressure couldn't be exerted from both ends as Chris Lynn was unfazed with the wickets tumbling around him. He silenced any doubters by taking down Lloyd Pope for five sixes in an over, sealing the fate of the match. Hampshire march on towards the final.

Lloyd Pope to Chris Lynn, no run, not to be six sixes!! And Lynn is saved by the review as he was initially given out LBW. A googly from a length, keeps a tad low after pitching outside off. Lynn shuffles in and is early on the sweep as the ball sneaks under him and thuds onto the thigh pad. Impact outside off though

Given out LBW and the batter has reviewed. Was the impact outside off? Yep, not out!!
