    9.1 "Noooooo..." comes the exclamation from Davies as he cuts Howell high to backward point... and Bethell charges in to take what for him is becoming a pretty routine catch! Had to dive at the end, but clean as you like from the young Warwickshire allrounder. That ends the second-highest partnership of the men's Hundred so far 81/1

    12.3 Into a length, hacked in the air and Bethell takes another well-judged catch in the deep! No need for a dive this time as du Plooy gets up and under a ball that was probably too full to pull. Probably not the worst time for a wicket for Brave considering the power of their middle order... 101/2

    3.2 excellent catch by Jofra, diving forwards at short third! Another arm ball, this time from around the wicket to the right-hander. Extra bounce from a good length as he looks to flash over cover-point, and it skews away off the edge 33/1
    19.3 swept to deep fine leg, Mills makes no mistake on the rope! Jumps across his stumps, looking to flick it away, but not a good enough connection this time. Duckett trudges off to a decent reception but got completely stuck at the non-striker's end during that collapse 135/9
    9.5 sticks one up the chute, held at point! Livingstone looks horribly out of touch and has been swinging like a rusty gate. He has another ugly heave, looking to belt one out of the ground, but it goes high, high, hiiiiiigh into the air and du Plooy eventually settles underneath it after some miscommunication with the keeper Davies 92/2
    11.3 bowls to his field this time, and gets the reward! 87mph, banged in halfway down, and Moeen picks out deep backward square leg. Full extension of the arms but slightly rushed on the pull, and Overton takes a simple chance 99/3
    12.5 Mousley's misery comes to an end! Looked all at sea against Archer and Mills, and is completely flummoxed by the slower ball. Mousley was looking to work it away through midwicket but didn't pick the slowie, and it loops up off his outside edge. Davies hardly has to move 101/4
    13.4 shimmies outside leg stump to give himself room, Jordan goes wide outside off. Bethell throws his hands at it... and picks out Evans at deep point! Brave are turning the screw here, Duckett is stuck at the wrong end and the 'Nix are collapsing in a heap! 101/5
    14.2 far too easy for the Brave! Poor batting, just needed to get Duckett back on strike. But this sat up from a length, and Kimber was sucked into a big slog. Picks out Pollard, who saunters in off the rope to take an easy catch 104/6
    14.4 so soft! Howell dances down like he's in the Strictly ballroom, but is comprehensively beaten by a bit of turn from Hosein. He doesn't bother trying to make his ground, with Davies whipping the bails off in no time at all. This has been an epic collapse 104/7
    18.4 picks out Pollard! Slogs across the line, as much elevation as distance, and Pollard ambles around from long-on to take a simple catch 128/8
