9:33pm That's all from us tonight, folks. Join us tomorrow as Birmingham Phoenix host Oval Invincibles

9:31pm Originals skipper Phil Salt is speaking to Sky Sports about this first win of the season: "We massively needed it. Even though we've lost the first two, we've probably played the two strongest sides since the competition started.

"We got the game against Southern Brave to a very similar scenario, and they got over the line, like good teams do. Oval outplayed us. Sometimes those games can be good early on, to remind you, and keep you honest.

[On new opening partner Ben McKinney's 29 off 12] "He's a bit of a surprise package, isn't he? Even I didn't know he was going to do that!"

9:26pm Your Meerkat Match Hero is Sonny Baker for his economical 1 for 21 from his 20 deliveries: "I mean, it was just trying to bowl fast! Swing the new ball, especially with left-handers, my preference is to go away from them. Especially to David Warner. He's a great player so I was worried if I was too wide! You've got a small margin for error but really grateful for the challenge and chuffed to get the win here today."

Currie to Pope, 1 run, Pace off, into off stump, worked to deep midwicket but Manchester Originals end their six-match losing streak at Emirates Old Trafford! A much-needed home win, by 10 runs. A complete team performance, with special credit to Sonny Baker, who set the tone early with his 10 straight. Tongue the pick of the quicks with 3 for 29 from his 20 deliveries.

12 needed at 1... just needs to be straight with your foot behind the line, Scott

Currie to Dawson, 1 run, Full, on leg stump, Dawson tries to clear down the ground, has to settle for a single out to deep point

Currie seems to want to review because he thinks it's flicked the pad... and it has! Can review that in the IPL but not here... Still, 13 needed from 2

Currie to Overton, 1 run, OUT, Full, straight, whipped around the corner but straight to deep square - Mark Chapman - who gathers and hurls to the keepers end, where Buttler takes in front of the stumps - 2019 anyone? - and takes the bails off as Overton legs it back... and continues on towards the dugout

J Overton run out 19 (8m 7b 3x4 1x6) SR: 271.42

Baker to Overton, SIX, Beefy! Short, angled in, Overton angles the bat and goes down-to-up with the cross-bat shot, high but far enough to bounce into the temporary stand
