Salt, who missed England's T20 series win over the West Indies because of paternity leave, amassed 80 off 57 balls while former England limited-overs captain Buttler contributed 54 off 42 deliveries.

Lancashire moved up to second in the North Group, level on points with Northamptonshire and leaders Durham, who claimed an impressive 49-run win over Nottinghamshire at the Banks Homes Riverside.
Colin Ackermann's 83 plus captain Alex Lees' 77 underscored Durham's 231 for five and Nottinghamshire were all out for 182, with Kasey Aldridge, who had just one wicket in nine T20s, bagging five for 29.
William Luxton made 81 and James Wharton 88 after former England stars Jonny Bairstow and Dawid Malan were dismissed for single figures as Yorkshire beat Worcestershire by 41 runs at Headingley.

Ned Leonard claimed a career-best five for 25 as Glamorgan edged out South Group leaders Somerset by two runs at Taunton. Will Smeed's 72 off 49 balls was in vain for Somerset.
