Ex-England batter on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports ExtraIs this smart batting? Laurie Evans is a very accomplished batter, surely Sunil Narine needs be thinking of getting a partnership going with him.

Tymal Mills is back.
Sunil Narine, meanwhile, can't find the middle of his bat.
Invincibles 68-4published at Ball 40
Sunil Narine goes the aerial route and manages to hit the ball just - and I mean just - short of Chris Jordan at long-off.

Billings b Lintott 12 (Invincibles 64-4)
Emphatic!
Sam Billings goes for a reverse-sweep, misses, and Jake Lintott sends the ball clattering into his stumps.

Ex-England batter on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports ExtraThis middle phase of the innings is going to be key. We saw spin play a big part in the women's game so it'll be interesting to see how they approach it.
Invincibles 64-3published at Ball 35
A terrific sliding stop from James Vince stops Sunil Narine snaring two runs off new bowler Jake Lintott, before Lintott nips a delivery just past Sam Billings' outside edge.
This has been a good comeback from the Brave, and Lintott is going to bowl another five in a row.

A thick inside edge saves Sam Billings from an lbw appeal and an excellent set of five from Danny Briggs comes to an end.

A thick outside edge from Sunil Narine first up, but Tymal Mills goes haring after the ball and keeps it to just two.

London Spirit captain on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports ExtraWe spoke about the match-up of Briggs with Jason Roy. He got taken apart by Will Jacks, but what a comeback.

Roy b Briggs 6 (Invincibles 56-3)
And Jason Roy will have to go!
Fired in a little quicker from Danny Briggs and Jason Roy has, essentially, yorked himself. It's not the prettiest mode of dismissal you'll ever see.

Danny Briggs is back.
