Twenty20 reaches climax

Atomic Kitten will play at Trent Bridge on Saturday

The all-singing, all-dancing Twenty20 Cup reaches its exciting climax on Saturday.

The semi-finals and final will be played on the same day at Nottinghamshire's Trent Bridge.

And Gloucestershire, Leicestershire, Surrey and Warwickshire will vie for the title - and £42,000 in winner's prize money to boot.

But while the cricket will take centre stage, there will be lots of other attractions to keep the punters entertained.

Pop band Atomic Kitten will play an hour-long concert, with support from the United Colours of Sound, who have recorded the theme tune for the cup.

Trinidad Steel Band is playing in the Caribbean food court area and there will be face painting a balloon modelling for children.

There are barbecue areas for families and the match sponsors will be organising various competitions throughout he day.

The England and Wales Cricket Board launched the Twenty20 Cup to bring a fresher audience to the game, namely children and women.

And so far it has proved a runaway success with more than 240,000 people attending the 45 group matches.

The final is a 15,000 sell-out too and organisers are hoping the finals day will have as big a buzz about it as the competition itself.

A spokesman for Nottinghamshire Cricket Club told the BBC Sport website: "This is out first domestic final so we are really excited about it.

"There is plenty going on all day, it will be action-packed."
