This included classic crowd-pleasers such as Blue Monday, True Faith and Temptation. As the show came to a close, the band disappeared momentarily. The crowd quickly called for their return.

They also thrilled fans with their uni

Somerset chased a target of 185 with 10 balls to spare as Tom Lammonby (47 not out) and Will Smeed (44) also made impressive contributions. Lancashire's 184-9 proved to be well under-par after they made a quick start in the powerplay. Reaction from some of the players involved Danny Lamb tweeted: "Tough one to take- wasn’t to be tonight… on to the Championship." Liam Livingstone then added: "Not to be tonight, beaten by a better team! Onto the championship, thanks to the select few who traveled all the way down to support us! It means a lot!"
