The 2010 Friends Provident t20 tournament was the eighth edition of what would later become the T20 Blast, England's premier domestic Twenty20 cricket competition.
The competition ran from 1 June 2010 until the finals day at The Rose Bowl on 14 August 2010. The eighteen counties were split into two regions, North and South. Group members played each other twice, with the top four teams from each group progressing to the quarter-final knockout stage. The change in format meant a rise in the number of matches played, from 97 to 151.
The competition was won by Hampshire Royals, who beat Essex Eagles in the semi-finals, and Somerset in the final, by virtue of losing fewer wickets in a tied match.
