Smeed: "It sounds nice. It's quite a good wicket, it's good to be back here at Edgbaston. It was amazing. You try and put it to the back of your mind that you're in the 90s but it was nice to get there. I actually felt a bit scratchy for most of it, felt like I mishit a lot of balls. We've got to bowl well but hopefully we can defend it."
HMQ: "Didn't Will Smeed score a century for Quetta Gladiators as well? Or that is not counted as Professional Hundred?" -- Not quite - he made 97 and 99.
7.45pm: Phoenix post 176, driving by a sublime hundred from Will Smeed, the first-ever in this competition. That's a very good total, though the boundaries are pretty short here at Edgbaston and Brave have a long, strong batting line-up. Smeed takes in the applause and the eomtion as he walks off.
Sampath Bandarupalli: Edgbaston was the host for the first ever T20 century (Ian Harvey - 100* for Gloucestershire vs Warwickshire in 2003) and now the host for the first ever century in the Hundred
Two balls to come. Can Smeed bring up the first-ever Hundred hundred?
Huge cheer as Will Smeed gets back on strike. He's never made a professional hundred but has been out in the 90s plenty of times...
Hammond, the new man, will be on strike.
