Bears 63-4 v Glos 138
Pressure on again.
Chris Benjamin is the new bat and he's away first ball with a drive to long-off either side of singles to Sam Hain.
A big cry for lbw against Hain last ball but it's sliding down.
This game is up for grabs now.
Bears 56-4 v Glos 138

It is a big wicket. Jacob Bethell has been so successful this season for Warwickshire, Birmingham Phoenix and the Bears!
Bears have a less-than-convincing record in knockout games and it is coming back to haunt them again.
Bears 56-4 v Glos 138
Ollie Price again.
Two singles before Sam Hain gets a cut backward of point and a good save on the fence saves four but they get two.
He works two more wide of long-on before another single to leg.
Jacob Bethell then rocks back and tries to lift one over the off side but lobs it to extra-cover!
Just when Bears appeared to have settled they lose another.

More spin now with Tom Smith into the attack.
He almost squeezes one past Sam Hain first ball but he's finally off the mark to his eighth delivery.
Two singles follow to bring the 50 up.
Jacob Bethell pulls for one to deep midwicket before Hain sweetly drives another single.
Five from. And that's all the Bears need at the moment chasing such a small total. They just need a partnership.
Bears 48-3 v Glos 138

This is not a job done yet for the Bears. They are making heavy weather of it.
It is a good review from Gloucestershire. They only have one review and they have to be careful - that is why they didn't use it the ball before.
Bears 47-3 v Glos 138
Another new England man out there now with Jacob Bethell replacing Dan Mousley.
He's off the mark first ball with a flick wide of midwicket.
Bears 45-3 v Glos 138
Image source, Getty ImagesNothing on ultra edge.
And ball tracking has it hitting the top of leg stump!
Dan Mousley trying to pull and it skidded on under his bat.
First view it looked plumb and the review was a good one.
Bears 45-2 v Glos 138
Ollie Price is on with his off spin.
He drags the first ball down and is pulled for six over the short leg side fence by Dan Mousley.
He tries again and gets a big top edge - but it lands agonisingly short of short-fine leg running in! Huge slice of luck.
A big cry for lbw against Sam Hain but surely pitching outside leg from round the wicket? No review asked for.
But a second shout against Mousley and this time a review!
Bears 37-2 v Glos 138

For what it's worth, this might not be much, Gloucestershire won the powerplay handsomely - 54-1 playing 37-2.
Of course, the Bears have the benefit of knowing what they need, but you can get into a bit of a muddle chasing these low targets.
Bears 37-2 v Glos 138
Final over of the powerplay and Josh Shaw is back. Sam Hain the new man.
Single, wide, then a firm punch from Hain to extra-cover.
Hain gives himself room outside leg and Shaw fires it outside off and inside the guidelines.
Another off drive finds the fielder. A dot. Then an attempted paddle-sweep misses.
Great end to the powerplay for The Shire and it's game on.
Bears 35-2 v Glos 138

Moeen Ali makes his way off the pitch with a slow trudge but there isn't a lot he could do. It was a fantastic delivery from Payne.

But Moeen Ali takes a slightly full one and whacks it over cow corner for six! Such a sweet strike.
He then edges to third man for four! No slip in place. Did open the blade but it was a thin nick.
No doubt about the next ball though - hammered down the ground for six more!
But then Moeen nicks a length ball behind!
Huge relief for Gloucestershire.
Bears 19-1 v Gloucs 138
Mike Taylor
BBC WM commentator
In a low-scoring game that is five runs that the Bears have picked up already. The standards are that high.
The odd misfield happens but in these games, it almost breaks the spell when the bowler is on top. It is amazing the change in the tone after a misfield.
Bears 19-1 v Glos 138
Matt Taylor takes over at the city end.
He's driven to deep point for one first ball by Mousley.
But then Moeen gets up on his toes to play a classic back-foot drive wide of the same fielder for the first boundary of the chase.
A front-foot drive then goes straight through extra-cover for four more! Should have been stopped.
Two dots rescues the over.
Bears 9-1 v Glos 138
Dan Mousley the new man and he's away second ball with a flick to deep square.
Another cracking over from David Payne.
The Shire have a foothold.
Bears 8-1 v Glos 138
Second over from David Payne.
Wide, single, then a nudge just wide of mid-off for two via a misfield.
Then Alex Davies pulls towards the Hollies Stand, doesn't get anywhere near enough on it and is well held by Ollie Price!
Breakthrough for the Glosters!

Alex Davies needed some treatment to his eye so hope he's okay here.
He's facing Josh Shaw from the city end.
And clubs the second ball down the ground for a couple. Didn't get all of it. Before a single to mid-off.
Moeen then almost taps a catch back to the bowler. It just died away from his left hand. He gets a toe-end for a single last ball.
New willow needed.

It is going to be interesting to see if it is becoming increasingly difficult to bat on here.
We have the full effect of the floodlights and it is skidding through on more.
Bears 0-0 v Glos 138
Straight away some swing for David Payne from the pavilion end.
Moeen punches the second ball in the air but just short of cover point.
He's then beaten twice outside off.
An outstanding over.
The first maiden of all the quarter-finals.
Image source, Getty ImagesSam Hain's total of 554 runs in 12 T20 Blast innings this season is exceeded only by Daniel Hughes of Sussex.
He has made six half-centuries, including a dazzling 98 not out off 48 balls as they beat Yorkshire by four runs at Headingley, without adding to his sole T20 hundred.
Hain signed off the group stage with 93 off 60 balls against Northants and will hope to pick up that form after a fairly quiet time, by his standards, in The Hundred for Trent Rockets.
