5.34pm: Quick turnaround in the Hundred, with the toss imminent down in Cardiff. Thanks for joining our coverage today, and make sure to follow that one here.
Mitch Marsh is man of the match: "The way we bowled there towards the end was exceptional. Great win to kickstart our season. [Headingley?] Beautiful place to bat. It feels quite small. I love batting here."
5.29pm: Impressive win for Sunrisers. Set up by Marsh and Lawrence with the bat, then closed out by Abrar and Ellis with the ball. Their first win of the season after defeat at The Oval on the opening night. The Brave have lost two from two, and will wonder how they messed up this run chase after they were so well placed. They needed 72 off the last 40 with Stoinis and Miller together, but both fell in quick succession to Abrar Ahmed in a game-changing spell.

Potts to Jordan, FOUR, in the slot, miscued through the leg side but Sunrisers won't care! They win by five runs thanks to a clinical death-bowling performance

Potts to Stubbs, 1 run, lands the yorker! Stubbs can only push it to cover via the toe end, and that should be the game. Great ball from Potts, right in the blockhole
11 off 2 required. Two more sixes needed. Can Stubbs pull off a miracle?
19.3
6
Potts to Stubbs, SIX, that's one of them! Low full toss as Potts misses on the full side this time, and Stubbs sits deep in his crease to get underneath this. Clears Crawley on the long-off boundary
Stubbs needs to hit the last three balls for six.

Potts to Stubbs, FOUR, in the slot, finally finds the boundary! Misses his yorker, Stubbs leans back and gets underneath it, hitting up and over mid-off
21 off the last four balls required.

Potts to Stubbs, no run, nails his wide yorker, Stubbs can only jam it back on the bounce
Ellis hasn't conceded a boundary at the death. Potts to close it out
