David Willey is on for his fourth and final over of the final.

Nope, he stays over and is guided down to the third-man fence.
There are 17 runs from the over - Northants were 146-3 at this stage but then lost seven wickets for 26 runs.

Joe Weatherley has now made more runs on a Finals Day than any other batsman.
And he becomes the very first batsman to score two fifties on Finals Day.
Hants 84-4 v Northants 169
A second 50 of the day for Joe Weatherley as he gets another one away to the boundary.
He may have to do this himself.

Tristan Stubbs going feels signifcant for Northants.
He was bowled by a superb Calvin Harrison turner, and couldn't quite believe he had been!
The Hawks need Hilton Cartwright to produce something special here with Weatherley if they are to chase down this score.

What a beauty. In any form of cricket that is a beauty.
You feel like that could be a huge moment.
Someone desperately needs to stay with Wetherley.

Image source, ShutterstockThey will get no more from Tristan Stubbs though.
