The Cricketer wraps up the best of the action from the latest round of matches in the 2024 Vitality Blast
Trent Bridge: Notts Outlaws DNB, Durham 58-0 - match abandoned
The points were shared in the T20 Blast game between Notts Outlaws and Durham as it was abandoned after five overs of action.
Wet weather early in the day meant the scheduled 2.30 pm start was pushed back to 4 pm, with the intention to stage a contest of 17 overs per side.
The visitors raced to 58 in just five overs at Trent Bridge before a heavy downpour in Nottingham forced the game to be abandoned.
The rain scuppered any chance of Notts Outlaws building on Friday's first win of the season as they stay bottom of the table with only three points at the halfway stage.

Hove: Sussex Sharks 130, Surrey 184-8 - Surrey won by 54 runs
Ruthless Surrey replaced Sussex Sharks at the top of the Vitality Blast South Group after an impressive 54-run win at Hove.
The visitors scored 184, thanks largely to 45 from Jamie Smith and 41 from former Shark Laurie Evans before Spencer Johnson's opening burst helped bowl the host out for just 130.
Sussex came into the contest on the back of a four-match winning streak including a 36-run victory at the Kia Oval last week.
But they never recovered after losing three wickets in the first four overs and were bowled out for 130 in 18.1 overs chasing 185 by a highly effective Surrey attack.
