    Jos Buttler gets in on the action now. He blasts another six over the top.

  2. Carlos Brathwaite
    West Indies all-rounder on BBC radio

    That went 83 metres. He'll tell you he didn't time that all too well.

  3. 6 runs

    Originals 123-2

    It's the Andre Russell show now. He launches another six over the top off the bowling of George Garton.

    That's the power we are talking about. That's flat-batted all the way.

  6. Carlos Brathwaite
    West Indies all-rounder on BBC radio

    Fuller's a clever bowler, he predominantly hits the wicket. Russell is powerful, so I am looking forward to this match-up.

  7. 6 runs

    Originals 115-2

    Huge from Andre Russell.

    Pure power this as he swats a flat six over the legside.

  8. Originals 106-2

    Braves' Dan Moriarty is done for the day, finishing on 0-28 off his 20 balls.

    I get the feeling the Originals are going to go big in the next few balls.

  9. 50 runs

    50 for Jos Buttler

    Originals 102-2

    Jos Buttler finds a gap to bring up his second half-century of this season's Hundred.

    He strikes his milestone off 32 balls with three fours and three sixes.

  10. Originals 100-2

    Russell 1, Buttler 48

    Andre Russell is the next batter in. He flashes a single to bring up the Originals' 100.

    I'm not sure that is good cricket, that's some lazy running there.

    WICKET

    Madsen run out (Stoinis) 9 (Originals 99-2)

    Poor from Wayne Madsen.

    He doesn't ground his bat and isn't expecting Marcus Stoinis to hit the stumps.

    Buttler is wreaking havoc here at the Ageas Bowl.

  14. 6 runs

    Originals 97-1

    Buttler 48, Madsen 7

    And another one!

    Buttler smashes a maximum off Jake Lintott over the legside.

  15. Melissa Story
    BBC Radio

    Fantastic blow from Buttler. It does feel evenly poised here.

  16. 6 runs

    Originals 90-1

    Oh that is huge!

    Marcus Stoinis is called for a no-ball and Jos Buttler punishes him with the free hit, launching it down the ground for six.

  17. Originals 78-1

    Eight runs from the latest James Fuller set. Time for Marcus Stoinis to return to the attack.

  18. Steven Finn
    Former England bowler on BBC Radio

    With mid-off and mid-on up in the ring, that's Fuller gifting Buttler a four.

  19. Originals 74-1

    Buttler 32, Madsen 3

    And the pressure is released straight away as Jos Buttler wallops James Fuller over the top for four.

  20. Melissa Story
    BBC Radio

    Madsen is struggling here.
