    The best part is they are very constructive, very well-measured and controlled.

    That completes the powerplay for Southern Brave, they're really motored away after the first three sets.

    Always a good battle when these two come up against each other, Ecclestone to Wyatt.

  9. Brave 35-0published at 20 balls

    The Originals need to slow things down. They turn to star spinner Sophie Ecclestone.

    Just as we said they were struggling to find any rhythm, they have now got three boundaries. Mandhana's ticking.

  11. Brave 35-0published at 20 balls

    The fours keep on coming!

    Mandhana chops one over the offside for another boundary before finishing the set of five with a pull for four.

    The Brave are finishing off the powerplay in some style.

  12. Brave 27-0published at 18 balls

    Mandhana 16, Wyatt 11

    Next ball, tickled fine for four. Mandhana is accelerating. She's on 16 off eight now.

    That's cleared the advertising board! That's her get-out-of-jail shot, clearing her front arm.

    Brave 23-0published at 17 balls

    Oh that is huge!

    Lea Tahuhu continues and Smriti Mandhana picks her, launching a six over the top into the stands.

    I think it's been really good bowling so far from the Originals. Good, tight bowling.

  16. Brave 16-0published at 15 balls

    Still, a very tight five balls from Grace Potts, just two runs from her set. The Originals have started well after winning the toss.

  17. Not outpublished at 14 balls

    Brave 15-0

    No chance. Mandhana is well in her crease.

    Stumping appeal has been sent upstairs mainly as a precaution. One thing about The Hundred is they get through umpire reviews really quickly.

    Brave 15-0

    Grace Potts is thrown the ball next as Manchester Originals continue with pace. She beats Smriti Mandhana with a slower ball and, hang on, is this a stumping chance? We go upstairs...

    Long chase there for Tahuhu, especially after having bowled her set. Danni Wyatt still not as comfortable but that's four nonetheless.
