- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.2 Bowled him! Brilliant delivery, and so very needed. Marsh hangs back in the crease and gets one that spins out fat front of his hand, between bat and pad and into leg stump. Enough turn into the right-hander to find the gaping chasm, with Marsh's feet stuck in cement 52/118.3 Direct hit from Joe Clarke behind the stumps! And it's Rickelton who has to go! LPW gets an under-edge on a slower, length delivery... Clark throws off his right glove just before he gathers, winds up and throws immediately and strikes as he wheels away to his right 154/611.1 Given! Low full toss, darted in at 61mph, Brook had stepped across his stumps and attempts a paddle but that's hit him on the shin. The umpire's finger goes up immediately. A second for Tariq 94/212.5 Full, in off stump, lifted to Owen at long on! Poor shot from Crawley, who went up and over but didn't really commit to the shot and ended up chipping off the toe 107/316.3 Lifted to that man at deep cover! Better length than the first delivery, meaning Lawrence has top step across to this wide delivery across him and attempt to clear Smeed... but ends up finding him 10 yards in from the sponge 139/416.5 Wide yorker, nailed, driven to Ferreira at cover... who hits at the bowler's end! Not the Phoenix skipper's first direct of the competition, well in 145/518.5 Slower ball, on leg stump, lifted high to backward square... and taken low by Rehan Ahmed! 154/7Extras10 (b 1, lb 1, nb 1, w 7)TOTAL169/7 (20 Overs, RR: 8.45 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-52 (Mitchell Marsh, 6.2 ov), 2-94 (Harry Brook, 11.1 ov), 3-107 (Zak Crawley, 12.5 ov), 4-139 (Dan Lawrence, 16.3 ov), 5-145 (Matthew Revis, 16.5 ov), 6-154 (Ryan Rickelton, 18.3 ov), 7-154 (Brydon Carse, 18.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.5 Carse wins the battle! Dug in short, 84mph, at the head, Owen cloths a pull high... and it lands safely in the hands of a tumbling Abrar Ahmed at mid on. The Pakistan spinner did well to track that from midwicket 12/13.4 Snicked off! Smeed makes room, but Potts holds his nerve, and length outside off, the slashing blade comes through but can only feather behind. Another failure for Smeed... 22/210.4 Taken on the long side by Revis at deep midwicket! Length a bit back, out the side of the hand and, ultimately, clothed on the slog sweep by Clarke... 67/44.2 Dug in, pulled in the air off the toe... straight to Patterson-White at deep square! Rehan done for pace and, not for the first time, the short ball... 23/316.3 Ellis gets the breakthrough! Full, on off stump, lifted to Brook, under a meter from the long off boundary 114/612.3 There goes the game... A third, deserved wicket for Carse, as he goes wide on the crease, cuts down the pace to 73mph and does the South African, who was attempting to smash the white off that off cutter. Carse turns to Crawley to share the spoils 72/517.3 Potts gets his second! Off stump rattled, Currie trying to work that full ball over the keeper with a ramp. Done 120/717.4 Yep - gone! Base of off stump this time, Potts nails his yorker and that's two-in-two. Can Potts nab a hat-trick? 120/8Extras11 (lb 3, w 8)TOTAL124/8 (20 Overs, RR: 6.2 per 6 ball)Did not bat: Usman TariqFall of wickets: 1-12 (Mitchell Owen, 1.5 ov), 2-22 (Will Smeed, 3.4 ov), 3-23 (Rehan Ahmed, 4.2 ov), 4-67 (Joe Clarke, 10.4 ov), 5-72 (Donovan Ferreira, 12.3 ov), 6-114 (Sean Dickson, 16.3 ov), 7-120 (Scott Currie, 17.3 ov), 8-120 (Tom Helm, 17.4 ov)
