Commentary

So that's all that we have for you from the 2nd Quarter Final of the 2024 T20 Blast. We'll be back with more Quarter-Final action from The Blast later in the evening tomorrow as Northamptonshire and Somerset contest each other for a spot in the semi-finals. This is Rajarshi Das, signing off on behalf of Pragadeesh Shanmugam for now. Good night!

Match summary:

Sussex win by 8 wickets with 35 balls to spare

Daniel Hughes 35 (22) | James Coles 2/9 (2)
Liam Livingstone 43 (35) | Liam Livingstone 1/17 (3)

A target of 115 was always going to be light work for Sussex at home, and while they took their time, the Sussex Sharks top-order got the job done with ample overs to spare. They killed the game off early itself - Harrison Ward and Daniel Hughes dug into the Lancashire pacers right away. It wasn't all brutal hitting - both left-handed openers hit the ball into gaps often and set the tone for the chase perfectly.

Wood broke the opening stand in his second over - Ward slashed one well outside off towards deep backward point, and even though there was a fumble, Dockrell held onto the chance in the deep. Hughes stepped in and kept going with the onslaught, and the Sharks had 63 by the end of the powerplay, needing the remainder of the runs well under a run-a-ball.

Luke Wells and Liam Livingstone kept things tight in the next few overs - the latter broke through with a leg-break, getting it to whizz through Hughes' bat and pad. Tom Clark and James Coles could afford to take their time - they did, milking the singles at will to go with the odd boundary. The duo got Sharks home eventually, and in some style.

And that is that! A first win for Sussex over Lancashire in T20 cricket, and they set up a home semi-final for themselves!

14.1 Tom Aspinwall to Tom Clark, FOUR! Sussex have booked a spot for the Finals day! Slants the length delivery across off, Clark chops it towards cover. The fielder fumbles and the ball beats the fielder

The scores are level with six overs remaining. This has been a walk in the park for the hosts.
