The 2010 Friends Provident t20 tournament was the eighth edition of what would later become the T20 Blast, England's premier domestic Twenty20 cricket competition.

Contents

The competition ran from 1 June 2010 until the finals day at The Rose Bowl on 14 August 2010. [1] The eighteen counties were split into two regions, North and South, with the top four teams from each group progressing to the quarter-final knockout stage. The change in format meant a rise in the number of matches played, from 97 to 151.

The competition was won by Hampshire Royals, who beat Essex Eagles in the semi-finals, and Somerset in the final, by virtue of losing fewer wickets in a tied match.
