Akeal Hosein to Aneurin Donald, OUT! TAKEN! Excellent catch from Jofra Archer and Birmingham Phoenix lose their first man! Length ball from Hosein, on off and angling in with the arm, Aneurin Donald looks to work it over covers but ends up with no real timing on it as the ball stops and holds a bit off the deck.

The TV umpire confirms that Archer has managed to keep his fingers underneath the ball. Aneurin Donald departs without troubling the scorers much.

Chris Jordan to Liam Livingstone, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! A struggling outing for Liam Livingstone comes to an end. Jordan comes, and Jordan strikes for his side in the very first set. Chris Jordan spears in a fuller-length delivery outside off. Liam Livingstone gets his eyes lit up as he tries to clear the fence over the leg side. He tries to hit it too hard and ends up losing his shape. Gets a genuine leading edge that spoons up in the air and travels over covers. A few fielders converge to get underneath but Leus du Plooy calls for his catch. He locks his eyes on the ball swirling down to him, and tumbles but eventually manages to take it safely. A cracker of a start from Chris Jordan, against the pace of play as he concedes just 3 off his first set and breaks the 59-run stand between Duckett and Livingstone.

12.5
Tymal Mills to Dan Mousley, OUT! That's splendid work from the bowler and Tymal Mills earns his wicket as Dan Mousley edged this back towards Alex Davies. Slower one, back of the hand, on off. Dan Mousley had no idea of what and where it was. Dan Mousley looks to nudge this around on leg, and gets a leading edge lobbing back towards the keeper. Alex Davies takes it with ease and sends back Dan Mousley on zero. Birmingham Phoenix have lost 3 wickets in the span of just 16 deliveries, and the asking rate is inflating with every ball now.

Chris Jordan to Jacob Bethell, OUT! Wickets keep tumbling and Birmingham Phoenix are falling apart in the chase. Full and wide outside off, Jacob Bethell moved to his leg and looked to open the off side for himself. Ends up slicing this straight to Laurie Evans at deep point for a simple catch. Jacob Bethell departs without troubling the scorers as well. Chris Jordan has bowled to his field and has used all his experience to put on a squeeze here. It is getting from bad to worse for Birmingham Phoenix. Also, Ben Duckett has been off strike for a while now.

14.2
Akeal Hosein to Louis Kimber, OUT! Another one bites the dust. Darted on the pads, good-length delivery on the middle and leg stump. Kimber rocks back for the pull. Swings hard, loses his shape, and ends up miscuing it straight up in the air towards long on. Kieron Pollard with his bucket hands takes the easiest of the catches at the mentioned position. He won't drop those even with his eyes closed. Birmingham Phoenix in all sorts of trouble now. A massive shift in momentum towards Southern Brave.

14.4
Akeal Hosein to Benny Howell, OUT! OUTFOXED BY HOSEIN! 5 wickets in the last 18 balls and the Phoenix are behind by a lot in this chase now. Akeal Hosein provides a lot of revolutions on that one and drifts in and turns away from the batter, enticing the batter cunningly to leave his crease. Benny Howell gets teased by the flight on offer, Benny jumps out of the crease and looks to take on the bowler with a hoick, but fails big time to get any part of his bat behind this. Alex Davies gathers this behind the stumps and removes the bails.
