Lancashire Lightning 216-6 v Yorkshire 194-8, Vitality Blast. Lancashire win by 22 runs.
Lancashire 4 points, Yorkshire 0 points
Sir James Anderson removed former England team-mate Joe Root for four as Lancashire kept their hopes of Vitality Blast quarter-final qualification alive with a convincing 22-run Roses win over Yorkshire at Emirates Old Trafford.
