7:13 PM IST: Lancashire continue their winning streak in the T20 Blast with a thumping eight wicket victory over Leicestershire at Manchester. A superb bowling performance led by Luke Wood (3/11) and Saqib Mahmood (3/17) restricted the visitors for 99 bundling them inside 19 overs.
Chasing an easy target of 100 on a not so difficult surface, opener Luke Wells fell early in the second over but Phil Salt (28) continued the assault with Steven Croft (46* off 34) to add 60 runs for the second wicket. The batters found it very easy to get the singles and doubles alongside the boundaries to get to the total. Daryl Mitchell batting at number 4 then added 37 runs for the 3rd wicket with Croft to guide the team home with 51 balls remaining.
Rehan Ahmed and Wiaan Mulder were the only wicket takers for Leicestershire as they struggled to gain momentum throughout the match. Callum Parkinson put the lid on the scoring conceding 18 in his 3 overs but it wasn't enough as there weren't enough runs on the board to defend or put up a fight.

Ninaad: With just 3 runs required to win, this could well be the last over of the match. Will Davis to bowl the 12th.
