Brave 59-4published at 60 balls left
After picking up two wickets Tristan Stubbs continues to bowl 10 in a row, but George Garton fancies a bit of him and twice mullers him down the ground for back-to-back four.
That's how you counterattack.

De Kock c Buttler b Stubbs 20 (Brave 51-4)
Tristan Stubbs gets rid of his South Africa team-mate Quinton de Kock who drives the ball straight into the hands of Originals skipper Jos Buttler.
It's all going wrong for Brave.

Davies c Russell b Stubbs 3 (Brave 50-3)
Tristan Stubbs strikes with his third ball. Alex Davies skies him over the top and Andre Russell takes a fine catch diving forward.
Davies punches the air in frustration. Brave under the pump now.
Tim David the new batter.

Target 189
Manchester Originals introduce spinner Matt Parkinson and reverse sweeping is the way to go for the Brave batters, but Quinton de Kock picks out the fielders.
Just two runs off that set.

Stoinis c Madsen b Hartley 1 (Brave 45-2)
Quinton de Kock hits one high into the night sky, like a shooting star off Tom Hartley, but it thuds safe into the turf.
Not so much for Marcus Stoinis who is gone off the final ball of the set and sweeps Hartley into the hands of Wayne Madsen.
Brave 38-0published at 80 balls left
Aussie Marcus Stoinis is the new batter, and he gets himself off the mark quickly. After a slow start Stoinis hit 37 against the Oval Invincibles so looks like he's finding some form with the bat.

Vince c & b Abbott 20 (Brave 36-1)
James Vince can hardly believe it. The crowd can hardly believe it.
A brilliant reaction catch by Sean Abbott.
Vince bunts it back towards Abbott but the ball was dying and yet somehow Abbott is able to get one hand down low to scoop it up.

Brave 32-0published at 85 balls left
Rookie Mitchell Stanley gets thrashed back down the ground by Quinton de Kock. Two bounces and four.
Fine start by the Brave. They're not going to leave anything in the locker here.

Former England bowler on BBC RadioThat is an unbelievable shot from James Vince, against someone bowling at 92-93 miles per hour.
Brave 22-0published at 89 balls
Mitchell Stanley, who has a handful of T20 games for Worcestershire under his belt, is chipped quite magnificently for six down the ground by James Vince
Pure timing from Vince, who holds the pose for the cameras. And rightly so. Glorious shout.
Brave 16-0published at 90 balls left
Quinton de Kock throws the bat at a free hit and a thick edge flies passed the wicketkeeper for four.
