Northamptonshire skipper David Willey has challenged his team to "put their name in lights" in their T20 Blast quarter-final against holders Somerset.Breetzke scored 460 runs in the group stage with a strike-rate of almost 154 to help Northants finish second in North Group to reach the knockout phase.
A place at Edgbaston for Finals Day on 14 September is the prize on offer for the winners and Willey said: "To have a home quarter-final is massive. "There are guys who are probably disappointed not to have had opportunities and this is a great time for them to step up and put their name in lights in a really important game.", but the loss of veteran Bopara might be significant as he scored 265 runs and took 13 wickets in the group stage, at the age of 39.
"Early on in the competition it was about learning and working out what our formula is," added Willey.
