Latest birmingham phoenix men vs welsh fire men 15th match the hundred mens competition 2026

128.57

6.1 no mistake from Cox on the long-on boundary! Back of a length, clubbed down the ground but straight to the man on the rope. Good composure from Cox, taking the catch on one foot, calmly throwing it up to himself as he steps over the rope, and takes it at the second attempt, with a little look at the crowd for good measure 53/2

WCF Smeed

c Cook b Woakes

125

1.3 picks out deep third! Width outside off stump, Smeed throws his hands at it, but it's straight down the throat of Sam Cook, the one man lurking out in the deep. Woakes is pumped and celebrates by punching the air 9/1

JM Clarke †

c Cox b Ferguson

152.17

9.1 stunning from Cox at long-on! A second relay catch to himself of the innings, this one even better than the first. Clarke gets a good piece of it and Cox does well, right back on the rope. Throws it up to himself but has a lot of work to do, runs around the boundary and springs back into play, diving forwards to take it at the second chance. Outstanding fielding 70/3

Rehan Ahmed

run out (†Salt/Jansen)

162.5

11.4 great stop by Salt, and another horrible mix-up! Dreadful running, it's been chaos with Rehan out there. Strayed onto the pads, Ferreira clipped it fine but Salt made a brilliant, one-handed diving stop to his left. He looked up to see both batters at the keeper's end after no real communication, and kept his composure to throw it to Jansen 79/5

LJ Evans

run out (Ferguson/†Salt)

100

9.3 horrible mix-up, and Evans is gone! Rehan slapped through mid-off, half-stopped by Jansen. The throw came in to the bowler's end with both batters mid-pitch. Ferguson gathered and could have taken the bails off at his end, but listened to Salt's throw of 'keeper!' and it's Evans who has to go. They might have been trying to get Rehan instead, but it was utter carnage with three fielders at the bowler's end and two batters in the middle 73/4

D Ferreira (c)

c Kohler-Cadmore b Ravindra

109.52

14.3 leading edge loops up to point! Speared in quicker, Ferreira looks to go again over the leg side but there's just a hint of grip as he cramps him for room, and TKC settles under the catch 107/6

SR Dickson

c Ravindra b Ferguson

110

17.3 picks out deep square leg! Slower ball into the surface, Dickson hauls it away via the top edge on the pull, and Rachin keeps his composure, running to his left 122/7
