Surrey 279 for 9 (Sangakkara 130*, Roy 42) beat Northamptonshire 276 (Kleinveldt 76*, Cobb 66, Dernbach 4-39) by one wicketScorecard Kumar Sangakkaras masterful 130 not out saw Surrey into the semi-finals of the Royal London Cup in a thrilling one-wicket win over Northamptonshire achieved off the last ball of the match.With Surrey looking likely to crumble in a lower-order collapse, Sangakkara finally found a partner in No.11 Jade Dernbach and the pair found the 27 runs needed for victory.Chasing 277, Surrey slid from 234 for 5 to 250 for 9 with two catches behind the wicket and two run outs as Sangakkkara looked on in frustration from the non-strkers end.Twelve were needed from the final over and Sangakkara leapt across his stumps to paddle sweep Azharullah into the sightscreen for six over the wicketkeepers head. It was an extraordinary shot at such a tense moment. Then with two to get from the final ball - although one would have brought Surrey victory by virtue of fewer wickets lost - he carved a boundary wide of point.It left Northamptonshire heartbroken after a fine comeback in the field and Ben Duckett rueing his dropped catch of Sangakkara on just 7. It came straight to him, albeit firmly, in the gully. It was one a number of moments Northants were left to look back on with regret in the field in a match in which they conceded 13 wides and seven no balls.David Ripley, Northants coach, said: Im very proud of the effort but we made too many individual errors throughout the game - soft dismissals, catches went down, too many extras. But as a collective effort to fight our way back was phenomenal.With three overs to go we were favourites, so its a double-whammy to have it taken away from us. Kumar was sensational in everything he did and it was a wonderful innings.It appeared Surrey were cruising to victory after the chase swung their way in the 21st over. Richard Gleeson was brought back to bowl it. He pulled up with a side strain and left the field. Alex Wakely tried to finish the over but it proved a complete disaster with two high no-balls that were swung for six and four by Sangakkara. Another boundary saw 24 come off Wakelys four legal deliveries. It left 129 to get in 29 overs.Sangakkara was composed and classy, working the bowling around and taking very few risks. A slog sweep against Graeme White brought him fifty in 61 balls. After flogging Wakely, he reached a third one-day century for Surrey in 116 balls. It did not seem then that it would take all of his experience to haul Surrey over the line.Northants were bowled out for 276 with an over to spare - and their total looked light on a good batting surface. Josh Cobb gave them a steady start having lost the toss but regular wickets fell throughout the innings and the hosts were in danger of posting a total well below par without Rory Kleinveldts fine late-order effort.Kleinveldts 76 in 62 balls gave the Northants innings a late revival. It was flagging at 227 for 9 but he found Azharullah for steady company and he blocked up an end to allow Kleinveldt to find the boundary. He carved Tom Curran wide of extra cover, and slapped a six over midwicket.It followed Cobbs 66. He injected some life into the innings in the 19th over bowled by Gareth Batty. A straight drive beat mid-off for four, a waist-high full toss slapped over midwicket for another boundary and the subsequent free hit was launched far over long-on as 19 came from the over.Cobb made his way to a smart half century in 54 balls but Tom Curran returned to angle a delivery into his middle-and-off stumps to break a stand with Alex Wakely worth 69. Wakely fell four overs later to a superb cutter from Sam Curran.Cobb and Wakely began to move the Northants innings along after Jade Dernbach claimed two early and very important wickets, both of them bowled to the batsmans strengths. A ball on the pads of Richard Levi was flicked into the hands of James Burke at deep square leg; another outside off stump to Ben Duckett was slapped to cover diving forward, Burke again the catcher. Dernbach returned to finish the innings off and claim 4 for 39.Harry Carson Jersey .

Their experience showed Tuesday as the No. 10 Badgers blunted a Saint Louis surge to win 63-57 and advance to face West Virginia in Wednesdays finals of the Cancun Challenge.Dale Earnhardt Jr. wont race in 2016, and his continued absence will bring many questions about not only his own future but the future of his team.It doesnt end there. The absence of this kind of star even draws questions about NASCAR in general, even though it has worked hard not to rely on Earnhardt -- the winner of the most popular driver award in each of the past 13 years -- as the sole face of the sport.Dale is definitely a leader in our sport, said Elliott Sadler, who drives for a team co-owned by Earnhardt in the Xfinity Series. He is one of the good guys. Hes one of the blue-collar guys, down-to-earth guys, the guy who tells it like it is.He is one of the true grit racers in our sport and always has been.Earnhardt can continue to be a leader in the sport. Many have praised him for making the decision to get out of the car, but he will also point out he didnt feel there was any way he could race in the condition hes in. He also has, through social media, showed fans what some of his rehab entails.For Earnhardt, he will have to balance any risks to coming back versus his desire to race. The emphatic answers he gave last month when asked about retirement -- bolstered by the resurgence in his career the past five years that has seemed to reinvigorate him -- show he desperately wants to race again.His contract runs through next season, and he had talked about an extension with team owner Rick Hendrick. Many in the sport believed that extension would likely be Earnhardts last, that he would race well into his mid-40s (he turns 42 in October) and then hang it up.His team will work with a couple of drivers the remainder of the year. Four-time Sprint Cup champion Jeff Gordon will do four more races, including this weekend at Darlington. He will run at tracks hes traditionally strong at -- Richmond, Dover and Martinsville.Alex Bowman will run the rest, giving the 23-year-old several opportunities to show what he can do and get comfortable in the car.The team now goes into this stretch knowing it could win only what is called the owners championship. It really is a team title, and it means much more to teams than it does to the public. But the bonus money is the same to the team as it is for who wins the driver title.Crew chief Greg Ives said the motivation for the Hendrick No. 88 team comes from wanting to run well. His team sits 15 points outside the final spot in the owner version of its Chase with two races left in the regular season.Every point I can get on the racetrack drives me, Ives said. The pride is being able to finish races and get as many points as possible.The health of our driver is No. 1. ... To be able to strive through [some mechanical issues] annd still be 15th in points and know we have to get a couple more to be able to ensure a potential owners championship, that drives us with a little bit of a spark.dddddddddddd.Ives doesnt worry that his crew might want to leave if Earnhardt cant return. He said the atmosphere at Hendrick Motorsports -- where the Earnhardt and Jimmie Johnson teams share a shop -- creates more of a sense of working for the company than a specific driver.I dont think anybody is forecasting that far ahead, Ives said. For me, I know Im not. ... Its just one of those things where we keep going, keep working hard.Its not just Earnhardts Sprint Cup team that is affected. Other drivers, if they have concussions, will see what Earnhardt did and be encouraged to follow a similar path. But drivers with less secure sponsorship and rides still could feel pressure to race while injured.Drivers know they compete in a dangerous sport. And despite how much work goes into safety, they tend to put a lot of their future up to fate.Time will tell, Joey Logano said about Earnhardts return. Im not going to be the guy thats going to be able to answer that question for you.All I can say is hes in our thoughts and our prayers and either way Gods got a plan for him and it will work out, but a lot of the time you dont know Gods plan until it happens.There also is the challenge for the sport in having its most popular driver absent.Attendance and ratings dont seem to have been affected yet by his absence -- tracks with expected sluggish sales have been sluggish -- but now that fans know he wont be at their track, there certainly is at least mild concern throughout the sport.The first track that comes to mind is Talladega, where ticket sales since Earnhardts announcement have not shown an impact, according to a spokesman.NASCAR has tried to push its younger drivers into the limelight. The 26-and-under drivers include Logano, Kyle Larson, Austin Dillon, Chase Elliott, Ryan Blaney and Chris Buescher.The elimination-style Chase format introduced in 2014 also has added drama to the final 10 weeks of the season.When Dale Jr. is the most popular driver in our sport and you dont show up to the track for two or three weeks, not that you are forgotten, but its crazy how things move on,?Jamie McMurray?said.I dont know that any of us knew what to expect or how that was going to go, but I dont know how to say that and to be, like, correct. ... He is iconic and he is obviously the most popular guy, but it will move on and it will continue to be a great form of auto racing in the United States. ' ' '
