    5.4 dug in, deflected behind! Another one off the glove looking to pull. This was 89mph and up towards the grille as Allen swing across the line, the ball crashed into the hands and looped tamely through to the keeper. Allen trudges off, Fire knock over another 40/2
    2.2 banged in and gloved behind! Shaheen missed out in his first set, but gets one in his second! Short ball, fizzing towards the right shoulder as Conway looked to pull, and he just gets a tickle through to the keeper 14/1

    7.3 backs away, and Payne hits leg stump! Rare ungainly moment from Vince, looking to get a wriggle on after a fairly sedate start. Made room, flailed across the line and missed the ball, maybe done by some low bounce 46/3
    13.5 Megs! Du Plooy is stuck on the crease and bowled! Scuttles low as he tries to flick it away and the ball sneaks between his legs to hit the woodwork. "Bulldog" van der Merwe takes another bite out of Brave 72/7
    8.1 bowled 'im! Off stump is flattened! Pace from Rauf and Fire are on fire with the ball. Banged on a length at 89mph, whoomph there it is as the ball smashes into the top of off with Garton beaten 47/4
    9.5 nicked behind, Brave lose another meekly! Pushed across him and David plays a flat-footed swipe, grazes an edge through to the diving Clarke. Not a full-blooded drive, just a jab at the ball in the channel, well taken down low. Fire in charge 55/5
    10.4 Rauf blasts out another! Throat ball, 89mph and Fuller is on it far too late, he's looking to go either leg side or down the ground, ends up spooning the shot into the covers, where Willey takes a good catch on the turn, the ball dropping over his shoulder 56/6

    15.1 dropped into the covers, direct hit... and Rehan is gone! Hurled hard into the base of the stumps by Willey going to his left. Big cheers from the Fire fielders, they knew his was out. Brave lose their eighth, and still have 24 balls of this innings to come! 76/8

    5.5 Rehan has his first wicket of the Hundred season. Full googly, swung high but not very mighty down the ground, and Overton hardly has to move at long-on. Wells was dropped first-ball, and now falls for 24 off 19. Tim David celebrates with Overton and breathes a sigh of relief. 47/2
    0.4 Clarke's poor form in a red shirt continues. Test-match bowling from Overton, length ball, angling in, nipping away off the seam. Too good for Clarke, who edges through to Conway 6/1
    8.4 done in the flight, Conway whips off the bails! Eskinazi skips down, Rehan drags the length back and turns it away just a touch. It beats the bat and he's stranded halfway down the pitch 64/3
    12.1 and gets his man! Around the wicket, slower ball outside off, smashed straight to Overton at short cover. A real struggle for Abell, which comes to an end 83/4
    15.4 hard length, angling in towards the hip... pulled away via the top edge... Allen holds on! Brave are closing in here. Decent pace, rushing Phillips, who gets himself in and then out 102/5
    19.5 hard length, skied into the off side... tumbling catch by Weatherley, the second sub fielder, at point! Brave celebrate, Willey is down on his haunches! Mills went pace-on and Willey was a touch late on the shot, looking to slap it out into the off side but skewing it up towards point. Weatherley had time to think about it as he set himself and the ball disappeared into the lights... nearly got away from him, as he hung a little too far back, but he fell onto his knees to snaffle it 145/7
    18.3 in the slot... but mistimed to long-on! David takes a very low catch and gives it out himself, signalling to the umpires that it's clean. Wide outside off, swung hard across the line. Tumbling catch from David and replays confirm it's a catch 134/6
