Hayley Matthews is a key wicket for them to pick up - she is one of the best batters in the world.
In T20s she only averages 18.88 against spin, compared to 25.60 against pace.
Her strike-rate against the slower stuff is also 96.15, compared to 112.81 against pace.
South Africa's left-arm spinner Chloe Tryon is the second opening bowler for the Brave. A loose one to begin with is punished by Matthews, sending the ball smartly to the square leg boundary.
Tyron follows with a leg-side wide but tightens up for the rest of the set, restricting the Fire batters to three singles.
Slower ball from Shrubsole draws a play and a miss from Matthews as she finishes her set with three consecutive dot balls.
Hayley Matthews is off the mark as well, the West Indian international timing the ball beautifully through the covers for the first boundary of the game.
Tammy Beaumont works Shrubsole behind square for a single and Brave are off the mark.

That's the key figure for today's Hundred action. To what am I referring? According to BBC Weather, it's the chance of rain at the Ageas Bowl for today's double-header between Southern Brave and Welsh Fire.
This tournament has been blighted by the elements, but we should set for some interrupted action today.
We have the men's team fixture starting at 15:00 BST, with the men to follow at 18:30. What a prospect.
