Leus du Plooy smashed an unbeaten 48 off 20 balls to lead Derbyshire to a six-wicket victory over Yorkshire in a rain-affected Vitality Blast North Group match in Chesterfield.
With the Falcons chasing a revised target of 105 from 10 overs, Du Plooy hit two sixes and a four off Matthew Waite to clinch a dramatic win with two balls to spare.
Harry Brook had earlier scored 77 off 50 balls, his third half-century of the competition, and Finn Allen hit four sixes in his 37 from 17 balls but the Vikings lost their last five wickets for six runs in 11 balls to finish on 175.
Fast bowler George Scrimshaw took three wickets in the final over to finish with three for 20 and spinner Mark Watt three for 29 before rain delayed the contest for 90 minutes.
Yorkshire looked favourites when Dom Leech took three wickets but du Plooy had the final word to give the Falcons a fourth straight T20 win over Yorkshire at Queen's Park.
The Vikings had threatened to run riot after Allen and Adam Lyth took 32 from the first two overs but Watt slammed on the brakes with a double wicket-maiden in the third.
Lyth was bowled swinging wildly at the spinner's first ball and Tom Kohler-Cadmore was yorked by a quicker ball without scoring.
Watt's next over cost 14 as Brook drove him for four and a straight six but the Falcons claimed the big wicket of Allen in the last over of the powerplay when he lifted Mattie McKiernan to deep square. But Brook was combining placement with power, straight driving Alex Hughes and McKiernan for sixes to reach 50 from 29 balls although the Falcons were keeping the Vikings in range by picking up wickets.
Shadab Khan drove McKiernan for six but then played on to Watt before Will Fraine drilled Hughes to long off.
