2:34 IST and 22:05 Local Time: Middlesex come on top of this rain-curtailed 10-over shootout at Cardiff to beat Glamorgan by 6 wickets! They keep their hopes of qualifying for the quarterfinals alive!

Middlesex won the toss and bowled first. Rain then halted the game for a while, reducing it to 10 overs per side. Glamorgan never got going and could only post 88 for the loss of 9 wickets. A couple of 10s and 12s at the top order was never going to be enough. Luke Hollman was the pick of the bowlers, who derailed the opposition big time with his figures of 4/13. The rest of the bowlers picked up one scalp each, except for Blake Cullen, who had 2 to his name.

Mason Crane's unbeaten 9-ball 18 helped Glamorgan to put something respectable on the board as he took the attack to Ryan Higgins, who was slightly expensive at the end.

Leus du Plooy (28 off 19) and Martin Andersson (30 off 23) were on fire opening the batting for Middlesex, scoring 55 runs for the opening wicket. Timm van der Gugten was swinging the new ball both ways, but the Middlesex openers dealt with it somehow to clobber him inside the powerplay.

A few wickets fell in quick succession post the 6th over, with Mason Crane, Daniel Douthwaite, and Marnus Labuschagne bowling well and pulling things back nicely to take it to the last over. All three of them grabbed one wicket each, while Jamie McIlroy also took one scalp but failed to defend 4 off the final over as Joe Cracknell's boundary in the 3rd ball of the 10th over sealed the deal for the visitors!
9.3 J McIlroy to J Cracknell
4 FOURRRR!!! That will do it for Middlesex! Good length angled across outside the off stump. Cracknell slashes and gets a thick outside edge. It flies between short third man and backward point for a boundary. End of the contest as Middlesex bash Glamorgan by 6 wickets!
Joe Cracknell is in at 6 and Middlesex need 4 off 4 balls.

9.2 J McIlroy to R Higgins
W WICKETTT!!! Brilliant catch from Marnus Labuschagne at short mid wicket! That was travelling, but the Australian managed to take a sharp one! Short and around the off stump. Higgins clears his front leg and smashes the pull straight to short mid wicket. Game on!
9.1 J McIlroy to R Higgins
0 Over the wicket. Back of a length outside off. Higgins pulls it straight to short mid wicket. 4 off 5 now!

8.6 M Labuschagne to L Hollman
6 SIXXX!!! That will ease the pressure on Hollman and Middlesex! Disappointing end to Labuschagne's over! Full outside the off stump. Hollman comes down the track, gets to the pitch of the ball and smokes it flat and hard over long on for a maximum.
8.5 M Labuschagne to R Higgins
1 Good length outside off. Gets down on one knee and pulls it to deep mid wicket for a run.
8.4 M Labuschagne to R Higgins
2b Poor wicketkeeping! Full outside off. A leg break. Higgins misses the sweep. Too full to play the stroke. Cooke fails to gather it behind the stumps and concedes a couple of byes as short third man hunts it down. 
8.4 M Labuschagne to R Higgins
WD WIDE! Leg break, full and outside off. Past the tramline as Higgins leaves it alone.
8.3 M Labuschagne to L Hollman
1 Full outside off. Drilled to long off for a single. A sliding stop in the deep, Hollman is off the mark.
8.2 M Labuschagne to L Hollman
0 Hollman is in at 5. Full around off. Goes for the reverse sweep and is hit on the pads.
