And that will do it Warwickshire are in the final with a very nice performance, scored plenty and then defended this total pretty well once the Powerplay was done. Jason Roy gave the hosts a chance with a blazing start but there was little else for Surrey who fail at Finals Day again. Warwickshire will be back at 7pm, as will we, but first the second semi-final between Hampshire and Lancashire, flick over where Monty has begun the live commentary...
