Chris Green to Cartwright, 2 runs, shortish delivery, Cartwright drags the pull behind square and that's the first fifty for Cartwright in The Hundred. Also the quickest by a Brave batter

Chris Green to Craig Overton, out Caught by Walter!! This is high, this time Walter takes it clean at long-off. Flighted delivery just outside off stump, dragged it back after seeing Overton advance, ball goes straight up in the air and Walter makes no mistake. Craig Overton c Walter b Chris Green 1(2)

David Payne to Cartwright, SIX, scoops and goes to the ground but he manages to middle it nicely. Low full toss, Cartwright moves across and gets the full toss away fine to the fine leg fence

David Payne to Jordan, out Caught by Walter!! Bottom hand comes off the handle, goes straight up. Oh Walter takes it on the second attempt. Slower delivery wide of off stump, Jordan goes for a maximum, got it to long-off but he didn't have enough power and distance behind the shot. Walter tried to catch, ball popped out but managed to grab it again. Jordan c Walter b David Payne 2(3)

Walter to Cartwright, SIX, pace off and into the wicket, need more power on it? No problemt says the strong Cartwright. Pulls and clears mid-wicket for another maximum

David Payne to Cartwright, SIX, oh my word! That's disappeared from the cameras. Short of a length delivery on the leg stump, Cartwright pulls and hits with brute force, possibly cleared the roof as well. 100 up for the Brave

David Payne to Michael Bracewell, out Caught by Bairstow!! Bracewell tries to hit out, instead nicks off. Short of a length delivery into the pitch seeing Bracewell give the charge, wild swing and the bounce with some away movement does the trick. Thick edge and straight to the keeper. Michael Bracewell c Bairstow b David Payne 8(12) [6s-1]

Ajeet Dale to Cartwright, SIX, you miss the mark and I muscle it down the ground. Ajeet Dale went for the yorker and offered slot, Cartwright got under it and smashed it into the sightscreen

Ajeet Dale to Cartwright, FOUR, this is a brilliant cameo from Cartwright already. The train wasn't moving and now he's got it rolling swiftly. Shortish delivery down leg, Cartwright swivels and pulls behind square for a boundary

Chris Green to Cartwright, no run, that would have been a stunner had Chris Green taken it! Shortish delivery outside off stump, Cartwright went hard on the flat-batted hit down the ground. Green reacted quickly to the left with a dive but it didn't stick. He is so disappointed. Great effort though

Chris Green to Cartwright, SIX, belted down the ground. Another full delivery, Cartwright gets down the track and gets under the ball to hit it high, kind of sliced it but managed to clear long-on

Chris Green to Cartwright, FOUR, tossed up too much and too full! Thank you very much thump down the ground over the bowler's head for an easy boundary

Chris Green to James Vince, out Caught by Saif Zaib!! Green gets the set batter. Shortish delivery on the stumps, Vince thought enough of hanging around and wanted to break-free. He hits the pull shot straight to deep mid-wicket and perishes. Key wicket this for the Fire. James Vince c Saif Zaib b Chris Green 29(26) [4s-3]

Walter to Michael Bracewell, SIX, that is a lovely shot! Just moved across and shape up for the scoop. Got down on one knee and got under the ball to help it away very fine over the fine leg fence. The ball hides under the black sheets covering the seats as an extension of the sightscreen. The steward searches and manages to find the ball

Ajeet Dale to Laurie Evans, out Caught by Bairstow!! Appeal, given and Evans walks off. Short of a length delivery on the stumps, Evans moves across and tries to scoop, the ball bounced so he couldn't control the shot. Was on the move as well and had no balance. Gets an inside edge and Bairstow takes an easy catch. Ajeet Dale roars in delight. Laurie Evans c Bairstow b Ajeet Dale 8(9) [4s-1]

Chris Green to James Vince, FOUR, slider just outside off stump, punched nicely through cover. Walter dives to the left from long-off, got there but he lets it go through to the ropes. Should have only been two. In fact Walter properly stopped that but while rolling and trying to release the throw the ball popped out

Walter to James Vince, FOUR, lovely cover drive! Walter overpitching this full delivery, Vince plays a neat looking drive all along the ground

Walter to Laurie Evans, FOUR, back and across movement to cut this short of length delivery fiercely past backward point to the right for a mighty boundary

Walter to James Coles, out Caught by Smith!! Oh he's hit this straight up and taken at cover. Slowish full delivery outside off stump, Coles waits and swings hard, bat turns in his hands on impact and the ball goes as far as cover. Smith settles under it and completes a simple catch. James Coles c Smith b Walter 14(10) [4s-3]

Walter to James Coles, FOUR, Coles has managed to time the pull better than his Brave skipper. Short delivery, Coles nailed it over backward square leg and got the boundary

Ajeet Dale to James Coles, FOUR, off the edge but Coles manages to get it rolling all along the ground and past the slip fielder. Third man tries his best but couldn't stop the ball. Short of a length delivery, Coles hops to defend, controls the edge and gets four

Ajeet Dale to James Coles, FOUR, oh chip drive but mid-off is so wide and Coles gets a boundary. Fullish delivery outside off stump, Coles goes straight on the drive and it was interesting to see mid-off very wide and no long-off in place

Matt Henry to Roy, out Caught by Abell!! Flicks it straight to mid-wicket and he stands there in disbelief. He has a long stare before walking off. Henry gets his deserved second wicket. Roy just had no idea how to play Matt Henry with the ball nibbling around. He gets out without getting a run off Henry despite facing 9 balls, Roy tried to flick this into the gap, instead found the fielder. Roy c Abell b Matt Henry 4(12) [4s-1]

Ajeet Dale to Roy, FOUR, oh inside edge past the off stump and he's finally got his first runs. Excellent fullish delivery just outside off stump to keep the batter guessing which way it would move. It nips back in to catch the edge and escape for four

Ajeet Dale to James Vince, FOUR, that is the perfect release ball that the Brave needed. A gift down leg, Vince glances it fine to the fine leg to release all the pressure Henry and Payne had built

Matt Henry to Leus du Plooy, out Caught by Smith!! In the air and taken at mid-off. This is the bowler being very alert to what the batter is trying to do. Matt Henry spotted Leus du Plooy itching to go big and running down the track. Matt Henry goes okay I am shortening the length and digs it into the back of a length spot, du Plooy was in no position to control the lofted shot because of the bounce. The shot just wasn't on and it lobbed to mid-off off the splice of the bat. Leus du Plooy c Smith b Matt Henry 2(6)
