Rew returned to Somerset after a tough Test debut and smashed a 43‑ball century, finishing 116 not out off 56 deliveries with 19 fours as Somerset posted 194‑7. Gloucestershire, bowled out for 176, fell 18 runs short despite a fifth‑wicket stand of 55 between Liam Scott and Kamran Dhariwal. Australian pacer Riley Meredith’s two wickets in the 19th over sealed the result.

Warwickshire recovered from a winless start, beating Worcestershire by 59 runs at Edgbaston. Opener Zen Malik sprinted to a fifty in 19 balls and fell just short of a T20 ton, while Beau Webster contributed 79 off 44. Worcestershire managed 165‑7 despite Adam Hose’s 49, leaving them well short of the 224 total set by the Bears.

Hampshire edged Yorkshire on the penultimate ball, extending their winning streak to six. AJ Tye’s 44 from 17 sparked Yorkshire’s chase to 150, but early wickets from Chris Wood (3‑23) and a late yorker to Sonny Baker kept pressure on. Dan Moriarty’s three for 27 and Tye’s three for 36 rattled the Hawks before Tristan Stubbs’ unbeaten 27 guided them home.

Northamptonshire posted a club‑record 238‑6, powered by Chris Lynn’s 75 and captain Chris Willey’s 65‑ball 65, then bowled out Essex for 108 as Calvin Harrison claimed 5‑9. George Munsey hit an unbeaten 82 to steer the Outlaws past Kent’s 184‑7, while Glamorgan chased 154 against Middlesex thanks to a 96‑run partnership between Asa Tribe and Sean Dickson.
