Trophy finalists decided

Middlesex and Somerset booked their place in the final of the Second XI Trophy after enjoying four-wicket wins in the last four.

Middlesex saw off Sussex at Uxbridge thanks largely to Eoin Morgan, who hit a fine 103 as the hosts overhauled a target of 212 with 4.3 overs to spare.

Somerset’s victory over Lancashire at Taunton was less comfortable - they surpassed Lancashire’s total of 244 for five with just nine balls remaining, Keith Parsons top-scoring with 74.
