    Moeen run out (Billings) 33 (Phoenix 119-4)

    Jamie Smith is looking in great touch here and while the Invincibles take a strategic timeout, here is a deeper look at Phoenix batter Smith.

    Earlier this month, Smith featured in BBC Sport's England Next Gen series, with the Surrey prospect aiming to play for England in all three formats.
