    6.5 flat outside off, Smeed nicks off! Two in the set for Bracewell. Smeed went hard at a cut, and the celebration was immediate. Big noise as the ball passed the bat, Ian Blackwell concurring straight away. Brave getting stuck in here 36/3
    5.1 edged behind, Jordan strikes first ball! Hard length and it kicks up in the channel as Duckett looks to play straight. Judders into the outside edge through to Evans, and Brave celebrate gleefully. Excellent line from round the wicket, plus extra bounce. No loosener from Jordan 28/1
    6.2 angled in with the arm, rattles the poles! Bethell goes back and is done by the ball skidding on. Flaccid flick across the line and the ball disturbs middle and leg. Tame dismissal, Phoenix lose a second 35/2
    18.2 spooned to mid-off! Archer takes pace off again, back-of-the-hander this time. Clarke loses grip with his bottom hand as he attempts to muller it over the off side. Can't clear Roy on the edge of the ring. Phoenix's last recognised batter departs 95/7
    13.5 short with pace off, Livingstone holes out! Cleverly bowled, back-of-the-hander from Archer, and there was nothing to work with as Livingstone went for the release shot. Dragged behind square, could barely have picked out the boundary rider better. Brave strike again to maintain their grip 75/4
    14.4 done in the flight, simple stumping! Bracewell bags a third. NIcely flighted, drawing Mousley out of his ground, then it turns sharply to leave him stranded. Evans does the rest before he can think of returning, and Phoenix's plight worsens 78/5
    15.2 bowled off his pads! Donald goes second ball aiming a big slog-sweep. He stepped away to leg, but couldn't connect as Coles followed him. The ball dipped under the bat, kissed the pads and ricocheted into leg stump 80/6
