The 2020 Vitality Blast was the 2020 season of the t20 Blast, [1] a professional Twenty20 cricket league being played in England and Wales. [2] It was the third season in which the domestic T20 competition, run by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), which was branded as the Vitality Blast due to the tournament's sponsorship deal. [3] [4] On 12 August 2020, following a delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ECB confirmed the fixtures for the tournament. [5]

In the North Group, the Notts Outlaws and Lancashire Lightning qualified for the quarter-finals. [6] [7] In the Central Group, Gloucestershire became the first team to qualify. [8] The South Group saw Surrey and Kent Spitfires qualify. [9] [10] Following the conclusion of the group stage, the Northants Steelbacks, the Leicestershire Foxes and the Sussex Sharks had also confirmed their spots in the quarter-finals. [11] [12]

Surrey, [13] Lancashire Lightning [14] and Gloucestershire [15] all won their quarter-final matches to progress to Finals Day. The match between the Leicestershire Foxes and the Notts Outlaws finished in a tie. [16] The Notts Outlaws advanced to Finals Day after they had scored more runs in the powerplay. [17]

For the first time in the tournament's history, Finals Day was washed out, with all the matches rescheduled to played on 4 October 2020, the designated reserve day. [18] If no play was possible on the reserve day, the ECB announced that the matches would have been played on 7 October 2020. [19] Play was delayed further on the reserve day due to rain, and as a result the two semi-finals were reduced to 11 overs per side, and the final was shortened to 16 overs per side. [20] Surrey beat Gloucestershire by six wickets in the first semi-final, [21] and the Notts Outlaws beat Lancashire Lightning by five wickets in the second semi-final. [22] In the final, the Notts Outlaws beat Surrey by six wickets to win the tournament and their second domestic T20 title. [23]

Background

The tournament was scheduled to start on 28 May 2020, and finish on 5 September 2020. [24] [25] [26] However, on 24 April 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) confirmed that no professional cricket would be played in England before 1 July 2020. [27] [28] In late May 2020, the ECB looked at the scheduling of domestic cricket for the summer, with the t20 Blast likely to go ahead, including the traditional Final's Day at Edgbaston. [29] The ECB also confirmed that no domestic cricket would be played before 1 August 2020. [30] [31] On 29 June 2020, the ECB confirmed that the county cricket season would begin on 1 August 2020, [32] with the format agreed in early July. [33]

On 7 July 2020, the majority of counties voted to start the tournament on 27 August 2020, [34] with Finals Day taking place at Edgbaston on 3 October 2020. [35]

Teams

The teams were placed into the following groups. The top two teams in each group progressed to the quarter-finals, where they were joined by the two best third-placed teams: [36]

Essex County Cricket Club played their cricket during the 2005 season in Division Two of the County Championship and Division One of the Sunday League. They started the season 8–1 to win the Second Division Title, and were second in the Championship table at 9 May, but five matches without a win following that sent them down to fifth place at the Twenty20 break in June. They only intermittently broke into the top three after the Twenty20 break, and when they did their opponents behind them usually had a game in hand. They finished fifth, 15.5 points behind the promotion spot, and with 36 bowling points they picked up the fewest in the entire Division Two. In the National League, however, they only lost once in sixteen games – against Gloucestershire Gladiators in August – and won the League on 28 August with three games to play. In the C&G Trophy, they went out to Lancashire at the second round stage, while they finished fifth in the group stage of the Twenty20 Cup, two points off a guaranteed quarter-final spot.

This amendment to the rules helps speed up the game. Additionally, boundary ropes tend to be shorter in Twenty20 cricket than for normal limited over games.
