    Need 56 from 48 balls

    Mahela Jayawardene dishes out plenty of advice to his Brave men. They're all too meek at the moment, though.

    Garton returns to bowl. He got the one wicket earlier, but a wide is followed by further easily-acquired runs.

    Southern Brave are just hoping for a rush of blood from Trent Rockets.

    If the Rockets stay calm, they should be able to just knock it around.

    It's been pure play from Malan and Short - controlled, nice use of the feet.

    There's lots to think about for the Brave.

    Trent Rockets are just running Southern Brave ragged at the moment. They might have to bring up a couple of fielders, to make them take on the big shot.

    Need 59 from 50 balls

    It's so, so simple at the moment for the Rockets.

    The crowd sense it too. Feet up.

    The Brave take a much-needed tactical time-out to try and figure out just how they can make inroads.

    De Grandhomme is charging in, huffing and puffing, but he's nit making a dent in these two's armour.

    Malan carves another four.

    There's no pressure on the Trent Rockets. They're just knocking it around nicely.

    Briggs twirls away and is milked for a succession of singles. Easy.

  12. Rockets 54-1published at 16:32 British Summer Time 24 July 2021

    Need 73 from 60 balls

    There just isn't any pressure on the Rockets right now. Brave need wickets. And fast.

    In the modern game, this is a stroll in the park.

    Trent Rockets are cruising along nicely here.

    Back to the pace as Chris Jordan enters the fray with the ball.

    Dawid Malan hammers his first ball away for four. Brilliant.

  16. Rockets 49-1published at 16:29 British Summer Time 24 July 2021

    De Grandhomme varies his pace to good effect, trying to dry up the flurry of runs.

    Rockets are ticking along nicely.

    Big Col in on, his mullet flapping in the breeze.

    His third ball is swatted away but fielded well on the boundary.

  18. Rockets 44-1published at 16:25 British Summer Time 24 July 2021

    Need 83 from 70 balls

    Nice from Dawson. Economical... until his final ball is smashed down the ground for four by Malan.

    Cheers Callum.

    Powerplay done. Where is your money? Surely with the Rockets?

    Liam Dawson continues the spin assault and keeps it tight to start with.

  20. Rockets 36-1published at 16:23 British Summer Time 24 July 2021

    Need 91 from 75 balls

    Oh, superb fielding.

    D'Arcy Short lifts over the covers this time, and Southern Brave captain James Vince does brilliantly to flick the ball back in and restrict them to a couple.

    That's me done. Phil Dawkes will take you through the remainder of the chase.
