    There is a sign of emotion there - Quinton de Kock looks at the ground in frustration.

    WICKET

    De Kock c Roy b Topley 9 (Brave 10-1)

    What a catch! Reece Topley strikes with his first ball and it's the big wicket of Quinton de Kock.

    In all fairness, he smashed it - but from nowhere, Jason Roy pulls out a Superman dive to pluck it out of the air.

    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra

    Quinton de Kock is an emotionless player to watch sometimes.

  4. Brave 10-0

    125 more runs needed

    Shot! Saqib Mahmood is bowling quickly but de Kock effortlessly ramps this one for four. That was so casual! Ridiculous.

    And he follows it up with a much more classical cricket shot for another four down the ground.

    Ex-England batter on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra

    I'm looking forward to seeing how Brave go about this - it's not a massive score. They just need to play good cricket. There's no need to be frenetic.

  6. Brave 1-0

    134 more runs needed

    A single from the first ball gets Quinton de Kock up and running.

  9. Here we go then. The players are making their way back out there.

  10. It looked like they'd be defending a much higher total when Will Jacks was batting though, as he smashed his way to 39 from 13 balls.

  11. Thanks, Amy.

    Well, you'd say Southern Brave are favourites at the halfway stage, but it's a slow-ish pitch and Oval Invincibles have the number one ranked T20 bowler at their disposal, Tabraiz Shamsi.

  12. Will Southern Brave be able to stroll to victory? Or can Oval Invincibles find something special with the ball?

    Ffion Wynne will take you through to the close.

  13. It's not ideal for Oval Invincibles but it's a better total than it threatened to be at one stage.

    Alex Blake has played a cracking knock - he walks off with an unbeaten 44 to his name from just 28 balls, with two fours and three sixes to boot.

    Alex Blake has given his side a chance. It's a below par total but at least they have something to bowl at.

  15. Invincibles 134-7

    A four to finish!

    Southern Brave will need 135 to win and reach the Eliminator.

  16. Invincibles 130-7

    Alex Blake gives himself some room and works the ball into the leg side.

    It's a decent throw from Colin de Grandhomme but not clean enough for Chris Jordan to collect, and they scamper through for the second.

    By the time he'd swung his bat the ball was already in the keeper's gloves! Good luck hitting that. It was 91mph!

  18. Invincibles 128-7

    Full, wide, missed by Blake.

    Just the casual 91mph from Chris Jordan.

  19. Invincibles 128-7

    I would, quite simply, cry.

    Alex Blake tickles the ball down the fine leg and does incredibly well to rustle up two runs as Danny Briggs pings the ball back and Quinton de Kock can't pick up the ball cleanly.

    This is world class from Chris Jordan. How do you bat against this?
