Whiteley c Sams b Cook 30 (Brave 123-4)
Big moment?
Daniel Sams takes an excellent catch on the ropes as Ross Whiteley cannot quite connect with a big one.
The end of a great partnership of 71 between Whiteley and Alex Davies.
It's 16 needed off 11.

That is a boundary which will go a long way to sealing the victory for Southern Brave.

Somerset all-rounder on BBC radioAmazing. Three in this set of five which have fallen just short of a deep fielder. Fine margins.

Target 139
Oh, big let-off for Alex Davies as he launches one high in the air but Alex Hales cannot get around quick enough and the Brave man has his half-century after running two.
It's 23 needed off 15.

Target 139
Now a wide from Shamsi.
More quick running from Alex Davies and Ross Whiteley gets two off the next ball when most teams would only have got one.

Tabraiz Shamsi might have been the fielder guilty of that breach we just mentioned.
He dropped a catch earlier - and now he's been smashed for six by Alex Davies. Wow.

The free hit goes only for a single despite Alex Davies' best efforts to find the boundary.
It's 36 needed off 20. Has the advantage swung back in the Brave's favour?

Free hit for a field breach now. Trent Rockets falling apart a bit.

Bit of a delay here as the ball seems to have split. The umpires selecting a replacement.

Somerset all-rounder on BBC radioIt's less than two runs per ball now.
Davies and Whiteley are both capable of knocking twos around and hitting the bad balls for boundaries.

Target 139
More good running from Davies and Whiteley as the former pushes a clever shot leg side for two.
