Salt c Patel b Rashid Khan (Originals 70-2)
Rashid Khan takes a wicket with his first ball!
Salt tried to sweep a full toss away, but he just top-edged it into Samit Patel's hands for a simple catch.
Originals 68-1published at 38 balls
Carter gets away with it, conceding just a single from the extra ball.
Originals 66-1published at 37 balls
A full bunger from Matt Carter is heaved over midwicket by Colin Munro. And as it's above waist height, they get a free hit.

Alex Hartley
Manchester Originals bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialThat's a brilliant shot. Munro is so chilled and relaxed. He looks like he means business.
Originals 56-1published at 34 balls
That's nice from Colin Munro as he drives De Lange back past him for a classy four.
Originals 52-1published at 33 balls

Originals 51-1published at 32 balls
A De Lange delivery squeezes under the bat, and it strikes Rockets keeper Tom Moores flush on the side of the knee as he drops down to try a long barrier.
That's gotta hurt, and he is having treatment from the physio.
Originals 50-1published at 31 balls
It'll get lively now as Marchant de Lange is on, and he is rapid.
Originals 48-1published at 28 balls
Steven Mullaney is the new bowler, and he is having to dry the ball out with a towel every time, but it gets wet again as Phil Salt smacks it back over the bowler's head for four.

Clarke b Patel 27 (Originals 33-0)
Bowled him!
Revenge for Samit Patel as Notts team mate Clarke aims a heave but misses it, to see the ball clatter his leg stump. Samit does a circular run around Clarke, just to rub it in.
Originals 33-0published at 22 balls
Shot!
Joe Clarke makes room and slaps Samit Patel through the offside between two fielders for another four.

Ex-England batter on BBC Radio Five Live Sports ExtraOriginals could be a bit scarred from their most recent game, where they conceded 200 runs, but they've had time to regroup. Clarke and Salt are setting a really good platform.
