- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.2 full on a good length, swung all around it and is clean bowled first danger removed. It nipped back a little but still Roy got in a bad position, aimed to the leg side, loses his middle and leg stumps 17/15.1 slower ball, slapped cross-batted down the ground, long-on fumbles and they run on the misfield, throw comes in from Willey and he hits direct! This is out surely? Yes on the replay, Davies is well short, what a waste 39/26 another swing, this at a 71mph slower ball and Maxwell edges behind aiming over the leg side. Nicely bowled, a little offcutter, Maxwell saw a chance to free his arms again but was done by the change of pace and presented a simple chance to the keeper 53/310.1 down the track, swung into the night sky and taken at long-on no where near enough contact on the stroke, that was never clearing the fielder 72/67.5 slapped down the ground off a good length, is this big enough, long-on has a good look at it and realises the length isn't there on the stroke and, who else, Willey takes the catch on the boundary's edge. Just not enough power on the stroke and it carried a yard short of the fence 59/49.3 very full again, driven again reaching for it, parried by point and then taken by point on the rebound with a dive! Everything they touch turns to gold in this match 70/512.5 another slower ball, 66mph, swung across the line, misses and is cleaned up. A nice delivery and Wilson was miles away from it, Surrey sliding now 92/713.1 full length wide of off stump, swung hard and here's another for Willey, caught at deep cover totally mistimed and the fielder comes in a few yards to take a simple catch, a second strike for Willey and he has enjoyed a dream evening 92/813.2 two in two! Lewis trying to play over the off side and gets it all wrong, just chips a catch to cover, a catch he could have taken in his sleep and Willey is on a hat-trick! 92/913.3 full just outside off, dabbed at, edged and oh my goodness caught behind!!! Willey has a hat-trick, the match is finished with three in three and Northants have won the cup! What a catch that was by Murphy, diving away to his right hand side, claimed it inches from the turf, what a take and Willey has only the second hat-trick in a T20 final, after Ryan McLaren for Kent in 2007 92/10Extras4 (lb 3, w 1)TOTAL92 all out (13.3 Overs, RR: 6.81)Fall of wickets: 1-17 (Jason Roy, 2.2 ov), 2-39 (Steven Davies, 5.1 ov), 3-53 (Glenn Maxwell, 5.6 ov), 4-59 (Azhar Mahmood, 7.5 ov), 5-70 (Zander de Bruyn, 9.3 ov), 6-72 (Vikram Solanki, 10.1 ov), 7-92 (Gary Wilson, 12.5 ov), 8-92 (Zafar Ansari, 13.1 ov), 9-92 (Jon Lewis, 13.2 ov), 10-92 (Chris Tremlett, 13.3 ov)
