| Scorecard |
Hampshire ended their Edgbaston T20 Day hoodoo as they beat Somerset to book a meeting in the final with Lancashire.
Although Hampshire have won the T20 trophy twice, they were at The Rose Bowl in 2010 and at Sophia Gardens in 2012 – and they had lost all their six previous semi-finals at Edgbaston.
But Tom Prest led the way with 64 as they made the final for a third time.
After posting 190-6, their highest Finals Day score, Hampshire then bowled out Somerset to win by 37 runs.
Somerset had twice beaten Hampshire in their two previous semi-finals in Birmingham, most recently in the last clash between the two sides 10 months ago.
But Hampshire perhaps began to lay that ghost when they demolished Birmingham Bears here…
