Livingstone equally as impressive with unbeaten 51 off 32
Wood impresses with pace and aggression - taking 3-17 off 20 balls

Rockets collapse to 53-6 after being asked to bat first
Tuesday's double header: Manchester Originals v Welsh Fire (women's at 15:00 BST, men's at 18:30)
Sams 20 Gregory 23
While Phoenix are very much still on top, they're leaking late runs here and Rockets are putting together a bit of a late surge.
A bit of a messy five from van der Gugten who keeps missing his length plus a wide in there and Rockets can smell that hundred.
This partnership is worth a very valuable 43.
Sams 15, Gregory 19
A bit of width provided and Sams throws his hands at it to find that leg-side boundary. Gregory joins the party and hits the second six of the innings. He knows third man is up and it rockets 74m.

That's what I really like about Moeen Ali's captaincy, he looks to attack all the time and uses the bowlers that he thinks will be good for the batters.
The best way to slow down the run-rate is to take wickets and Birmingham Phoenix have got that mindset.

Sams 8, Gregory 11
Lewis Gregory dances down the wicket and goes aerial. While the fielders are interested, he's got enough of it and it launches for a much-needed six.
Gregory 5, Sams 7
A welcome boundary as Sams clips it over fine leg for four. Howell recovers well and the run rate is still less than a run a ball as these two look to try and get going.
Rumours are rife that there is a branded Phoenix beach ball bouncing around the crowd.
Gregory 3, Sams 2
I could watch Imran Tahir all day. He is blockbuster. Every ball is a show isn't it? Even the way he runs in.
The last ball of the set almost finds the edge of Gregory and Tahir goes up hands on head.

It's Lewis Gregory that will need to need to play the captain's innings. Phoenix are just so much on top. The early wickets have really crippled them so it's a massive blow.
Patel c Ali b Howell 13 (Rockets 53-6)
Moeen Ali makes no mistake under that and it continues a day of Phoenix taking catches. Samit Patel is offered width but no pace and it goes straight to Moeen at extra cover.

Cockbain lbw b Howell 6 (Rockets 52-5)
It's umpire's call so the call stands and Cockbain has to go.
Fuller from Howell who traps Cockbain with the knuckle ball.
Rockets 52-4
Iain Cockbain is given out lbw so it will need to be completely missing or have hit the bat to be overturned.
Cockbain 6, Patel 13
Patel goes bit. We all felt it coming. Livingstone just dropped it a bit short and Patel threw his body through it. Not too shabby 75m.
Livingstone recovers well with two dots.

Samit Patel is not only talented but also has a huge amount of experience so he will not feel too overawed by this situation.
Cockbain 5, Patel 7
The Rockets finally find the boundary and it's off the bat of Samit Patel. He uses his wrists well to turn Brookes away and the strangle has been broken slightly.

Enter Samit Patel.
Kohler-Cadmore b Howell 11 (Rockets 37-4)
He holds the pose but we all heard the death rattle. He's played all around that and no matter how long you hold a pose, those zingers will still light up.
It just sort of floated past him and almost looked like it was happening in slow-mo.
