I don’t think Hampshire broke the stumps properly at the non-striker’s end and that Hartley actually gets back for the second run.
Did lancs just run a legitimate 2 at the end there or was that just me?Did lancs just run a legitimate 2 at the end there or was that just me?Watching it back, this looks to be right.

The overall captaincy standards in the T20 Blast are better than what I have observed in any other T20 franchise tournament around the globe.

To legitimately run Hartley out McDermott needs to pull another stump out which he doesn’t?! McDermott runs down the wicket, ball in hand.

A bitter pill to swallow - Confused fans react after controversial run-out makes Hampshire T20 Blast champions
Ben McDermott was seen holding the stump which was uprooted by another fielder. (P.C.:Vitality Blast) The final of the T20 Blast between and Lancashire ended in an anti-climax as the Hawks won their third title. With five runs needed off the final ball, Nathan Ellis overstepped and the delivery had to be bowled again. Three runs were needed off the legitimate last ball and Ellis, despite being under immense pressure, executed the back-of-the-hand slower ball to perfection. The batters could only complete one run as wicket-keeper came running towards the non-striker's end to ensure there was no second run taken. This was important as if Lancashire had completed two runs, they would have tied the game and won the title because of their powerplay score. While Hampshire finally celebrated a fantastic win, some fans on Twitter noticed something really strange about the last ball. The fielder at the non-striker's end handed McDermott the stump as the bails were already dislodged. McDermott claimed the run-out as according to the rules, you need to hold the ball with the uprooted stump if the bails are already dislodged. However, some fans claimed that the stump was not uprooted by McDermott himself, which technically and probably meant that Lancashire had completed two runs to secure the tie and thereby the title. Here are some of the reactions to the dramatic end: Did lancs just run a legitimate 2 at the end there or was that just me?Did lancs just run a legitimate 2 at the end there or was that just me?
