    0.5 miscued and taken! Smith tries to go big from the final ball of Dwarshuis' set, only manages to send it up the chimney. Mitchell Owen tracks around to his right from mid-on and takes it securely 7/1

    5.2 skewed up and taken at cover! McKinney falls softly after a decent start. Owen just popped it on a length, maybe the lack of pace did for him. Big top edge but it doesn't get behind the edge of the ring 40/2

    8.4 flatter, beats him as he advances - easy stumping! Brave lose another batter before he can really get going. Maybe sensed he was coming, pushed it through as Abell left the crease and he was left in no-man's land for Clarke to complete the dismissal 55/3

    12.5 half-tracker, slammed to cover! Stoinis is filthy with himself here. Dragged down wide of the stumps and he belts it off the front foot, but straight to Ferreira at short cover. Brilliant reaction catch, putting his hands up instinctively, and Stoinis falls just as he was looking to motor 87/4

    18.1 skied to short third, Miller falls! He was Brave's best hope of muscling up to 140, but he's foxed by pace off and ends up top-edging to the edge of the ring 116/7

    15.3 slogged... but not cleanly, straight to long-off! Tossed up and Stubbs tries to emulate his partner, but doesn't get the connection. Maybe too full to get under, maybe grips a touch. Ends up slicing it slightly and Currie takes it comfortably running across to his right 104/5

    17.2 short ball, Jordan connects, picks out the man! Looking to get some oompetus into the innings, but it ends up being a straightforward catch for deep backward square leg. First wicket of the night for Currie 112/6

    18.3 slapped to cover, Archer sets off - Ferreira dead-eyes the stumps! Archer not in the picture. Phoenix have been excellent in the field tonight, epitomised by the efforts of their captain. He grabs the ball, sizes up the non-striker's end, and hits unerringly 116/8

    4.5 short and smashed - straight to deep midwicket! Stoinis the golden arm for Brave again. Driven into the pitch, urging Clarke to take on the big hit. He connects well but picks out the safe hands of Stubbs out on the rope. Brave get the breakthrough they needed from the final delivery of the powerplay 28/1

    9.2 Smeed holes out to long-on! Brings a big yelp of delight from Wood. Back in the crease and trying to muscle it over the ropes... it's a good hit, but not quite long enough on one of the bigger grounds. Vital wicket for Brave's hopes 52/2

    11.3 hoicked and taken! Rehan loses patience, despite that six off the previous ball. Tries to bully Jordan down the ground but it's nowhere near clearing long-on, Archer holds it securely running in off the rope 64/3

    13.5 wide line, nicks him off! Stoinis does it again for Brave. Lures the big drive and there's an audible tickle through to Smith. Bowler knows it, keeper knows it... and Evans knows it too! He trudges off, and the game swings again 83/5

    12.1 bowled 'im! Huge moment in the chase. Archer's first wicket of the 2026 Hundred. Just back of a length and it skids on to smash the off bail from its groove. The Utilita erupts and Brave are (finally) running hot 65/4

    15.2 Rashid googles him, bails go pop! Owen's fight is over. Rashid goes back to flighting it high above the eyeline, encouraging the big hit. Owen plants the front foot and heaves across the line, gets a thick inside edge into this stumps 89/6

    19.1 over the wicket, miscued off a leading edge, held by the diving Miller! Wood makes the perfect start and the crowd go bonkers. They can almost touch that first win of the season! 115/7

    19.2 round the wicket, short ball nicked behind! Wood has two in two. Digs in the offcutter and Currie feels he has to swing for the hills. Big top edge through to Smith and Brave are almost home 115/8

    19.3 direct hit from short third! Team hat-trick and Brave are as good as there now. Mahmood does manage to get Dickson on strike, jamming the ball down into the ground and loping off for the other end - but he's well out of the frame as Rashid takes aim and hits the stumps! 115/9
