ECB Match Report - Durham sweep to victory
Durham needed just 38 minutes of the reserve day to clinch a 125-run win over Hampshire in the Friends Provident Trophy final at Lord's.
Forced into a second day as they strived for their first major domestic trophy, Durham's bid for victory was held up by more rain until 12.30pm.
But, following a delay of an hour and 45 minutes, Hampshire - 158 for five overnight chasing a target of 313 - collapsed to 187 all out in front of just a few hundred spectators.

Nic Pothas and Dimitri Mascarenhas took the total to 174, but Pothas was caught at deep square-leg by Graham Onions for 47 off Paul Collingwood and Mascarenhas was bowled by Liam Plunkett for 12 to all but end Hampshire's hopes of pulling off an lready improbable triumph.
It became four wickets for eight runs when Chris Tremlett skied a catch to Michael Di Venuto off Collingwood for a duck and Daren Powell gave a simple chance to Collingwood off Plunkett for one.
Hampshire captain Shane Warne was greeted with a no-ball bouncer by old foe Collingwood, but it was Plunkett who bowled the Australian for five to end the innings in the 41st over.
