Tymal Mills was also bowling RAPID for Southern Brave yesterday.
Can he use this competition to stake his claim for a spot in England's T20 World Cup squad?

Hopefully we get two really exciting matches and the weather stays away.
Marizanne Kapp will be a big miss for Invincibles, she played a really key role in that first match at the Oval the other night.
But it hands someone else a really big opportunity.
I went to see The Hundred for the first time in Nottingham yesterday as the Trent Rockets hosted Southern Brave.
There was a brilliant atmosphere at Trent Bridge and we saw history as a seemingly unplayabale Marchant de Lange claimed the first five-wicket haul in the competition as the men's Rockets thrashed the Brave by nine wickets.
There was a very useful off-spinner called Joe Root playing for the Rockets too. Wonder if he can bat?
It meant a share of the spoils after Brave had beaten Rockets by 23 runs in the women's match earlier.

This day is officially a sell-out here at Lord's for the first matches in The Hundred.
Let's hope the weather holds too for this historic occasion.
Coverage of this first London derby of the day is under way on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra from Lord's.
We've got a new name to welcome to the team as well this Sunday morning...

Both sides won their first game in the competition - London Spirit beating Birmingham Phoenix by three wickets and Dane van Niekerk leading Oval Invincibles to a five-wicket win over Manchester Originals on a memorable first evening of The Hundred.
With Northern Superchargers and Southern Brave, the other unbeaten teams, not playing today, whoever wins this one will go top of the table.
Oval Invincibles captain Dane van Niekerk on Sky Sports: "We would've bowled first as well, but we chased well the other night so hopefully we can do the same again today.
"It's a great honour to play here at Lord's, I've never played here before so I'm really excited.
"We had a huge amount of fun in the win the other night, so hopefully we can do the same."
London Spirit captain Heather Knight speaking on Sky Sports: "There are a few overheads about, the ball will hopefully swing a bit too and we feel that chasing is our best suit.
"It's a quick turnaround from the first match, there are a few learnings to take into this match, but we're hopeful we can build on it as we get stronger as a squad.
"It's a great opportunity for some of our younger players to play here at the Home of Cricket in front of a good crowd."
The toss took place a short while ago and the hosts have won it.
Spirit and England captain Heather Knight wants to have a bowl first.
There are then two games starting at 14:30 BST - London Spirit v Oval Invincibles in the men's event, also at Lord's, which you can watch live on the BBC.
And then up at Old Trafford, Manchester Originals face Birmingham Phoenix in the women's competition.
Finally, the men's teams complete the double header at Old Trafford, starting at 18:00.
