In the North Group, Finn Allen hit an explosive 66 and Alex Davies 56 as Lancashire remained on course for the quarter-finals with a six-run victory over Durham at Old Trafford that ended the visitors' hopes.

Durham raced to 78 without loss after six overs in reply as David Bedingham made 50 off 24.
