Rain wrecked Friday's schedule in the Vitality Blast with all eight matches abandoned without a ball bowled.

North Group table toppers Lancashire Lightning saw their clash with Birmingham Bears wiped out, while Yorkshire Vikings and Durham were also thwarted by the weather.

The games between Nottinghamshire Outlaws and Derbyshire Falcons and Northamptonshire Steelbacks and Leicestershire Foxes were washed out, too.
