9.21 pm The Phoenix break a major gridlock on the table to move two points clear of much of the field - including Oval Invincibles - and now sit on eight points, tied for second place with London Spirit. They trail only the Trent Rockets who are in first place with 10 points.

Kane Richardson is the Match Hero taking 3 for 22: "It's always nice to win. That's a tough ground to defend on. The feedback at the halfway point was there was plenty of pace and bounce in the wicket. Tom Helm did a very nice job in the middle and there and getting both Curran brothers, he should probably be standing here to be honest. They're a team that just keeps coming so to get a win at this stage is massive. I think we know we're going to be a pretty hard team to beat at home so to get this win is big. Destiny is in our hands."

That's it for our coverage tonight. Come back tomorrow for another doubleheader featuring the London Spirit and Welsh Fire. On behalf of Andrew Miller, I'm Peter Della Penna. See you all tomorrow!

Howell to Mohammad Hasnain, 1 run, full on the stumps, driven to long-on for one. Phoenix hold on to claim two points.

Howell to Mohammad Hasnain, no run, slower ball yorker on sixth stump, Hasnain charges and swings over the top of this and the air is sucked out of the home crowd.

Howell to Mohammad Hasnain, FOUR, Still alive! Full and wide yorker, Hasnain slices this over short third to go for four. Two sixes needed to win.
19.2

Howell to Mohammad Hasnain, SIX, There's one! Length ball on middle, heaves this high and deep over midwicket and just clears the leaping fielder on the rope.

Three sixes and a four are needed from here. You never know... Here's Hasnain arriving at the crease.

Howell to bowl the final set with an extra fielder forced into the ring.

END OF OVER:
19 | 9 Runs | OI-M: 145/7 (22 runs required from 5 balls, RR: 7.63, RRR: 22.00)

  • Matt Milnes4 (1b)
  • Sunil Narine6 (6b)
  • Kane Richardson3.5-0-22-3
  • Tom Helm3.5-0-11-3

So 22 needed off the final set of five balls. The cutoff time has passed. An extra fielder has to come into the ring now for the final five balls. So still some hope for the Invincibles.

Richardson to Milnes, FOUR, good length ball on the stumps, Milnes shuffles across to ramp this wide of Wade behind the stumps and beats him splitting the gap with short fine leg to the rope.
