... THE PRESENTATION ...
Earlier in the match, Southern Brave scored 118/8 after recovering from an early slump at 31/4, thanks to captain James Vince's 52 runs. Tom Curran excelled with the ball for Oval Invincibles, taking 4 wickets for 24 runs. The bowling conditions favored bowlers, making it challenging for the batters.
The pacers with the new ball were brilliant! The likes of Overton, Jordan and Archer build the pressure and got their side back into the game. However, the spells from Mills and Hosein really cost their side. The two were very expensive and that’s not what they could afford defending a low score. They needed all their bowlers to perform and that was not the case. However, we just believe they did not have enough on the board, they were at least 15 to 20 runs short of what could have been a winning total.
A comfortable chase in the end by Oval Invincibles! It wasn’t all that comfortable though against the new ball. They lost one early and then Malan struggled to put bat on ball. Jordan Cox, however, was going at a decent click at one end but when Malan fell, Brave were on top. Then came the game defining innings and partnership between Curran and Cox. The former played the aggressor and the latter played second fiddle. In no time, they killed the game and won it.

OUT! Taken! Billings falls. This is short and on the body. Sam looks to pull. It goes off the glove and it is taken. An appeal but turned down. Review taken and it is in the favor of the visitors.
