- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.3 Madsen takes a screamer at short cover! Quick and flat on a length, Jacks punches hard into the off side but Madsen flings himself to his left and clings onto a blinder. Serious athleticism at 40 years young! 57/25.3 picks out deep midwicket! Malan never got going. Tossed up, in his arc, but mistimes the slog-sweep and Walter makes no mistake in the deep 49/119.4 edged through to Salt. 82mph, back of a length, looks to slap it away through cover but feathers through to the keeper. Great hitting from Curran after his promotion to No. 3, back-to-back 50s for him in the Hundred 164/712.3 clears the front leg, looking to slog-sweep, but skies it straight up and Mir gets around from short third! Extra bounce from a good length, which means Cox gets it off the top edge 92/316.3 Raza keeps his balance at deep midwicket! Full, sliding into the pads as Billings comes down and shimmies outside leg stump. He mistimes this one into the leg side, and Raza settles underneath it in the deep. He was near the rope, but avoided it while hopping 126/417.4 bumper outside off stump, Ferreira is done for pace and his top-edge flies down to Mir at deep third. He's not usually the best fielder, but he's taken two catches today 140/518.2 slower ball, angling across him, plinked straight to mid-off. Picked the cutter but couldn't get the elevation or timing to beat Currie on the edge of the ring 145/619.5 clears the front leg, swings and misses. Lammonby calls him through for a single but Salt's underarm throw is a clean hit, with the batter short of his ground. Originals need 165 for their first win of the season 164/8Extras3 (lb 1, w 2)TOTAL164/8 (20 Overs, RR: 8.2 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-49 (Dawid Malan, 5.3 ov), 2-57 (Will Jacks, 7.3 ov), 3-92 (Jordan Cox, 12.3 ov), 4-126 (Sam Billings, 16.3 ov), 5-140 (Donovan Ferreira, 17.4 ov), 6-145 (Tom Curran, 18.2 ov), 7-164 (Sam Curran, 19.4 ov), 8-164 (Tom Lammonby, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.4 Now he's gone! Tries to repeat the heave to the leg side, but this delivery is fuller, and a leggie, spinning under Salt's hack and clipping off stump 89/111.5 Hurst goes! Is this the collapse? It might be you know... Hurst, fresh from getting his half-century, scuffs a Jacks delivery that was too wide and a little too short to slap down the ground, skewing an edge to Tom Curran at short third 96/216.5 Lifted over to fine leg... where short fine cannot make up the distance to take the catch. Madsen was on one knee lapping over his shoulder and just gets away with it 140/416.2 BACK TO BACK... he's gone! Oh my days... Walter gets a hold of this one away to the grandstand, but Sam Curran is out at deep midwicket and is in play on the very edge of the boundary as the wind holds it up. Catches, relays to himself, collects. Easy as. What a moment 137/319.1 Overton goes! How about that for a start?! The hot hand prevails; length, pace on, enough shape into the right-hander to draw the inside edge through to Billings. Now, now, now... 158/617.3 Raza goes! The retirement hasn't worked... no real depth to work with because it's not quite short enough, but Raza tries to go up and under down to the leg side and ends up finding Cox out at wide long on 142/519.5 And Invincibles have won it! Originals botch another chase to the team that know how to win... Curran hows a low full toss just outside off, carved high to Tom Lammonby out at deep point who keeps his cool to hold on. Invincibles win by three to move level with Southern Brave at the top with 8 points... and Originals are officially out of the play-off reckoning! 161/7Extras16 (b 9, lb 3, nb 2, w 2)TOTAL161/7 (20 Overs, RR: 8.05 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-89 (Phil Salt, 10.4 ov), 2-96 (Matty Hurst, 11.5 ov), 3-137 (Paul Walter, 16.2 ov), 4-140 (Wayne Madsen, 16.5 ov), 5-142 (Sikandar Raza, 17.3 ov), 6-158 (Jamie Overton, 19.1 ov), 7-161 (Usama Mir, 19.5 ov)
