7:50pm Big ask for Birmingham Phoenix, who will need their home-grown batting line-up to do the business here. The pitch is a belter and Headingley does love a bit of drama. Can they topple the highest total of the last two seasons? Alan Gardner will be with you soon to find out

Boult to Brook, 2 runs, Yorker nailed, 78mph, dug out by Brook down to long on for a couple. The 200 dream dies but in part because of an excellent comeback from Boult after an expensive first 15. Quality death bowling. Still, 194 is a tough target...

So here we go. Last 5... is 200 on the cards? Trent Boult with his last 5 - 0 for 36 from 15 so far - has the honour of closing out the innings...
