    Vince b Tahir 4 (Brave 35-2)

    Time for the lap of honour!

    Just brilliant from the 42-year-old Imran Tahir - the oldest player in the tournament. He gets a little bit of turn, and it goes past James Vince, who is looking to sweep, and crashes into off-stump.

    Tahir wheels off in celebration, arms outstretched. He loves it.

    Three singles follow the six.

    That's a decent set for Southern Brave. They are starting to build a decent platform for a charge later in the innings.

    That is huge. Stirling is an outstanding cricketer when he gets going.

    Benny Howell is on, and Paul Stirling greets him with a big 'un over long-on. Lovely strike.

    Howell supposedly has 90 different deliveries. We could well see 20 tonight.

    It's been feast or famine - sixes or dots - in the powerplay.

    Adam Milne is just superb. Say it to anyone who will listen - people need to know.

    He concedes just one single from his third set, and that means he has now bowled 12 dot balls from his 15 deliveries too.

    To think he is only a reserve for New Zealand for October's T20 World Cup. Terrifying depth.

    The batters are under pressure to score big in the first 25 balls but it's difficult against a bowler like this.

    Moeen Ali is sticking with Adam Milne. He'll have used up 15 of his 20 balls by the end of this set.

    A potential gamble by Moeen Ali? It could potentially leave Phoenix short of bowlers at the end of the innings.

    It's a powerful blow. It was right in his zone and Stirling does not miss out.

    Oh! Imran Tahir almost does Paul Stirling in the fight, as the Irishman looks to advance down the track, but he just about drags it through mid-wicket.

    SIX! Stirling is maximum or dot ball at the moment bottom much. He whacks Tahir down the ground to end the over.

    In a final you want to get your team off to a flier but sometimes it's worth taking a few balls to get your eye in and to get set. Someone like James Vince can make up the runs.

    Time for a bit of spin.

    Imran Tahir - the oldest player in the tournament at 42 - is on.

    Adam Milne starts with three dot balls to James Vince. There's a little bit of movement there for Milne too.

    He's gone for just two runs from his first 10 balls. Superb.

    To get him early is a massive boost for Phoenix.

    Milne has been superb this tournament. The dangerous De Kock has gone.

  20. wicket

    WICKETpublished at Ball 12

    De Kock c Pennington b Milne 7 (Brave 15-1)

    The breakthrough! The big one too!

    Adam Milne decided to persist with the round the wicket tactic, and he was continuing to cramp Quinton de Kock for room, and the South African just ramps one up in the air to short leg.

    The slower ball worked nicely there.

    That is very big wicket for Phoenix.
