- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.1 full toss, flubbed to deep backward square! Roy departs to the first ball of the innings! Rank delivery but he almost gets too much of it, helping the ball all the way out to the man on the rope, who takes a good catch above his head, to the delight of the Headingley crowd 0/18.4 full toss, plinked to long-on! Parkinson sets off in celebration... Jacks' eyes lit up as he looked to munch this meatball down the ground, but completely mistimed his shot to be well held by Wiese a long way in off the rope 69/214.4 goes again but holes out to long-on! Rashid tosses up the bait once again and this time Klaasen mistimes his blow down the ground, it's still a tough take for Wiese but he grabs it above his head and turns to steady himself in front of the rope 124/319.2 mistimed to cover! Curran looks to make room but can't get under a full delivery and picks out Rashid, backpedalling on the edge of the ring 180/419.3 full, straight and given! Whiteley swings hard at his first ball and is hit on the back pad in front of off stump. Tailed in quite late. Pretty straightforward decision for Steve O'Shaughnessy 180/5Extras2 (b 1, lb 1)TOTAL185/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.25 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Jason Roy, 0.1 ov), 2-69 (Will Jacks, 8.4 ov), 3-124 (Heinrich Klaasen, 14.4 ov), 4-180 (Sam Curran, 19.2 ov), 5-180 (Ross Whiteley, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR16.5 B-R-I-L-L-I-A-N-T! Whiteley holds a stunner running in from deep midwicket! Is that the game for Invincibles? Mistimed slog across the line from Banton, but it looked as if it might fall safely, until Whiteley thundered into view and took it at full stretch 155/53.2 short, 91mph and pulled... can't clear mid-on! Hurried on the shot and he splices it, nearly had enough to clear Curran running back but he scampers around to take a good catch as the ball dropped over his left shoulder. Gasman Gus breaks through 23/14.3 nicked behind! Sits back and tries to angle a length ball behind square, ends up choking the shot and edging through to the keeper. Good use of the angle from Curran, who strikes with his third ball to see off the dangerous Brook 28/210.3 drilled straight to long-on! Flat, fast legbreak from Sowter and Hose can't get under it. Crunched down the ground, firm connection but picked out Jacks for a low catch, well held 85/315.3 goes big, goes home! Zaib can't clear mid-on! Didn't get the connection and Curran takes his second excellent running catch of the night, this time scampering away to his left. Johnson breaks the stand at a vital time 147/417.3 carted leg side, Whiteley holds this one! Goes for the big hit towards the longer side of the ground again, doesn't have the legs and this is safely held to tip the game further towards Invincibles 158/619.3 dug in and sent spiralling to deep midwicket! Carse flailed across the line but his hook went high into the leg side, not enough to get over the rope and Cox holds it securely before quietly gesturing to the crowd 173/719.4 full and wide, Rashid connects... but picks out deep cover! The crowd went up initially, thinking that Rashid might have got it away over the rope. But the cheers died as Whiteley held it comfortably, before he turns and shows them his belly, for some reason 174/8Extras9 (b 1, lb 1, nb 4, w 3)TOTAL176/8 (20 Overs, RR: 8.8 per 6 ball)Did not bat: RJW TopleyFall of wickets: 1-23 (Matthew Short, 3.2 ov), 2-28 (Harry Brook, 4.3 ov), 3-85 (Adam Hose, 10.3 ov), 4-147 (Saif Zaib, 15.3 ov), 5-155 (Tom Banton, 16.5 ov), 6-158 (David Wiese, 17.3 ov), 7-173 (Brydon Carse, 19.3 ov), 8-174 (Adil Rashid, 19.4 ov)
