That is incredibly played! Absolutely genuine, he meant to play it there. How do you get the timing to do that?

Oh, that is a remarkable shot!
Henry Brookes bowls short, Wayne Madsen ducks beneath it and casually carves it over the keeper's head for four! That is brave.
I just know that if I tried that I'd end up hitting the ball into my face or something.
Originals 56-1published at 40 balls
A precious boundary for Wayne Madsen, rocking onto his back foot and carving it through the off side.
Powerful shot.

Ravi Bopara
Former England all-rounder on BBC TwoI was just thinking the job is only going to get harder with the likes of Howell bowling now.
Originals 46-1published at 35 balls
Benny Howell, who is a master of bowling in the middle overs, continues to keep things nice and tight for Phoenix.
It's bubbling. Something's got to give from the Originals batters. Singles aren't enough.

Isa Guha
Former England bowler on BBC TwoThis is the first time I think in five games Manchester Originals have lost a wicket in the powerplay. They certainly have firepower at the top.
Originals 40-1published at 30 balls
Henry Brookes starts very nicely, piling the pressure on Wayne Madsen who has just two runs from his first five balls.
Originals have got to kick on here. The runs are drying up.

Wayne Madsen is the new batter and that's the powerplay done.
Phoenix will be happy with that, especially to get that wicket.

Saqib Mahmood
England bowler on BBC TwoThere's a short leg side boundary that Evans tried to target and it's a tidy catch from Tom Helm.
Sometimes that's why the short boundaries can be your undoing.

Evans c Helm b Richardson 12 (Originals 36-1)
Breakthrough!
Laurie Evans tries to finish the powerplay in style, taking an almighty swing at a wider ball from Kane Richardson. The ball swirls high in the air, all fielders falling silent until it lands safely in Tom Helm's waiting hands.
Big wicket for the Phoenix.

Phil Tufnell
Former England spinner on BBC TwoGood, strong shot. If it's up, it's off. That was an elegant bat swing!
Originals 35-0published at 20 balls
Matthew Wade is doing a decent job of multi-tasking while wicketkeeping and chatting to the commentators on the player mic, which can't be easy.
Not much he can say when Laurie Evans whacks Ben Dwarshius down the ground for a one-bounce four, though.
Originals 26-0published at 15 balls
Smashed down the ground for four more, Phil Salt cashing in this time.
Looks like we're in for another good score from these openers.

Scott Read
Commentator on BBC TwoThat was cheeky from Evans. Played it late, played it fine.
Originals 20-0published at 12 balls
Laurie Evans joins the fun with a deft touch for four, guided nicely past the keeper.
The runs just starting to flow nicely now.

Phil Tufnell
Former England spinner on BBC TwoYou're already playing a league where you have to win every game from now. So I think the best way to release that is to go out there and get a big score as far as Manchester Originals are concerned.
Originals 13-0published at 10 balls
Phil Salt is a lucky, lucky man.
He swings hard again and the ball loops up into the air off the edge and just out of reach of the fielder.
And it runs away for four!
Originals 9-0published at 5 balls
A welcome dot ball to conclude the first five balls.
So, Phil Salt's been given a life. Can he make it count?

Former England spinner on BBC TwoThat went quickly to him. That is certainly a great stop, but potentially a catch!
