    That was a great catch by Lintott, brilliant!

    It's an interesting atmosphere here with the majority of the crowd neutral. They celebrated the wickets earlier but seemed to be enjoying the Rockets sixes. I think they just want to see good cricket, obviously.

    Great catch! Samit Patel was playing patiently, but he's gone for a big shot and out of nowhere Lintott appears to take a diving catch.

    I think this one was definitely my favourite.

    And another!! And even better this time because it's caught in the crowd! There have been some really decent catchers in these Hundred crowds.

    Tom Moores' shirt looks like it's been found in the bottom of his kit bag after two days festering there.

    Well, Tom Moores has had enough of this blocking nonsense! He dances down the pitch and whacks the ball straight into the stands.

    It's a great shot, but his shirt is really creased. Someone get him an iron.

    What can Trent Rockets do from here? Samit Patel has had a good tournament with the bat, but you feel that if he gets out, it's going to be a real struggle to get a decent score.

    I think that was just a low full toss and Gregory couldn't get the elevation. That's a great catch from Paul Stirling, diving to his right.

    Tymal Mills makes the breakthrough! Gregory gives himself some room, backs away and drives it straight into the hands of a diving Paul Stirling.

    That was a brilliant 20 balls from George Garton. He has picked up the Trent Rockets' top three - and what a three to get.

    Garton comes back, in search of a fourth wicket but the Rockets batters are being much more reserved.

    But a great spell from the fast bowler, with three wickets for just 17 runs from his 20 balls.

    Good recovery though from Lintott, with a couple of dot balls. At the halfway stage, Brave are still in control.

    Not yet - Lewis Gregory gets four more.

    Jake Lintott is staying on for another set of five. Will the gamble pay off?

    That was the most expensive set of five by far for the Southern Brave.

    And Patel follows it up with the first six of the night! Looks like they're going to try and target the spinners.
