Former England spinner on BBC TwoIt looked like Mady Villiers bowled that one a bit slower. It was a clever bit of bowling.

Ball 48Boyce c Adams b Villiers 21 (Originals 59-2)
Chipped straight to the fielder and the partnership is broken! Georgie Boyce took a couple of steps down the pitch and hit it to georgia Adams who takes a fine catch down low.
Invincibles needed that wicket.

England captain on BBC TwoI wonder what Georgie Boyce has done to upset Lizelle Lee. That's twice now she's nearly knocked her head off hitting the ball back at her!

Former England spinner on BBC TwoYou feel like these two are just getting into their stride and there are still lots of batters to come.

Ball 45Boyce 20, Lee 29
Another change in bowling as the spin of Mady Villiers is introduced.
Villiers strays down leg side and Lee crouches down, sweeps and helps the ball along to the boundary.

Former England spinner on BBC TwoThat's nearly taken Georgie Boyce's head off at the other end!
Originals 51-1published at Ball 40
Ball 40After some more terrific bowling from Van Niekerk, Lee finally punishes a pitched up delivery by launching it down the ground for another boundary to bring up Originals' fifty.
Nevertheless, a good 10 balls from the Invincibles captain, conceding nine runs.

BBC Sport at The OvalMuch has been made of The Hundred’s attempt to make things simpler and easier to understand. This is what is being shown on one of the scoreboards. The scoreboard on the other side of the ground is more detailed.

Ball 35Brilliant stuff from the skipper as she floats in her deliveries and concedes just two runs from the five balls.
As you'd expect, she's staying on for five more.

Ball 30Time for some leg-spin - where the ball spins away from the right-handed batter and into left-handers - as captain Dane van Niekerk brings herself on.

West Indies all-rounder on BBC TwoThat was quality from Georgie Boyce. I'm loving the batting from these two so far.

Ball 30Oof, you can tell how good a shot is by the crisp sound it makes from the middle of the bat. Georgie Boyce makes some space and clobbers Ismail for four.

Former England captain on BBC TwoThe Originals have done well to get to this stage after Emma Lamb got out early.

Ball 28Ismail replaces Kapp, who still has five balls left to bowl.
Lizelle Lee latches onto a short ball from Ismail and pulls it to fielder out on the boundary but it falls just short.

Ball 25Sorry, Invincibles fans. It seems each time I compliment one of your bowlers, they get smashed by the batter the very next delivery.
Kapp is hit for back-to-back boundaries by Boyce.
