Twenty20 Cup, Lord's:
Surrey 200-3 beat Middlesex 177 by 23 runs
Tim Murtagh took the first six-wicket haul in Twenty20 Cup cricket to spark a Middlesex collapse and help Surrey to a 23-run victory before 26,000 at Lord's.
The hosts, set 201 to win, were in fine shape on 148-1 but lost nine wickets for 29 runs when Murtagh (6-24) removed Owais Shah for 78 and were out for 177.
Brisk fifties from Ali Brown (64) and Dominic Thornely (67) had led Surrey, who beat Kent on Wednesday, to 200-3.
The pair put on 76 runs for the third wicket and shared five sixes.
