Big Blast Guide: Beyond The Bowl
Find out which Vitality Blast game is for you! In this edition, find out more about the two Hawks Women's home fixtures hosted at outgrounds on 7th June & 9th July.
Hampshire Hawks – who finished fourth in the South Group during the Vitality Blast group stages – face Notts Outlaws in a Vitality Blast Quarter-Final on Wednesday.
The Hawks qualified for the knockout stages of the domestic T20 competition following a remarkable run of five straight victories to round off the group stage and their reward is a trip to Trent Bridge to face North Group table-toppers, Notts Outlaws.
The T20 Quarter-Final is Hampshire’s third against Notts Outlaws – who, quite remarkably, are hosting their tenth home quarter-final in the last 12 seasons - with both previous fixtures taking place at Trent Bridge (2012 & 2014) with Hampshire winning on both occasions.
The winner of the fixture – starting at 7pm and broadcast live on Sky Sports Cricket – will qualify for Vitality Blast Finals Day at Edgbaston on Saturday 18th September.
