Curran b Lintott c Briggs 5 (Invincibles 99-7)
Well. That's not ideal.
Tom Curran goes for a huge swing of the bat and ends up sending the ball straight to Danny Briggs at backward point.

Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports ExtraWhat a swing of the bat that is! Back-to-back boundaries just gives the Invincibles a bit of impetus.

Now that's a shot and a half!
Alex Blake muscles a pull off Chris Jordan back down the ground, the ball making the sweetest sound off the bat, and it sails over the boundary ropes.

Ex-England batter on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports ExtraIf these two play smart cricket and build a partnership, it could be salvageable. They've got to try and nudge up to 130 if they can.

Alex Blake has timed some lovely shots straight at the fielders. That must be beyond irritating.
Oh, that is four, though! Much needed for the Invincibles as Blake slaps a Jordan delivery up and over the heads of the fielders.

Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports ExtraIt was all going the Invincibles' way when Will Jacks was smacking it everywhere. But now they're well and truly on the back foot.

Wonderful, controlled bowling from Danny Briggs, who concedes a handful of singles to finish with 1-26 from his 20 balls.

This was an excellent comeback from Danny Briggs, who is about to start his last set of five.

Tom Curran gets in a muddle against Chris Jordan, outside edging the ball into the air, but it drops short of the lurking fielders.
