00:00short and pulled away pulled away well in front of square that brings up the
00:09first boundary for the London spirit and finishes the first five six without loss
00:14close real close and given right on the money from the first ball excellent from
00:24Saudi the Phoenix get the first Daniel Bill Drummond this one a bit of it
00:30out swing pitching and just going straight on crashed into Midland like
00:34you think the DRS will confirm it for us soon enough looking to go offside and
00:41gets an inside edge through mid wickets and this will trickle away from for not
00:46where he intended pepper but gets the result that he wanted as opposed to just
00:54trying to hit the boundary down the wicket on this occasion holds his shape
00:59beautifully back-to-back boundaries for pepper first five down on the sweep and
01:08straight to the man Milne takes a simple catch and pepper is gonna go
01:18flick the way to sign from Rossington there's a man out there oh great piece of
01:25work oh my word what a catch what a catch that is Dan Malesley I think it is in the deep
01:33looking straight into the sun salute Specky in the deep Rossington thinks he's got all of this
01:40Malesley trying to assess where he is where the boundary is offloaded and a brilliant dive back
01:48to get the ball and a left boot oh bold him check back down the slope a beauty from Abbott
01:59Dan Lawrence the skipper getting an absolute peach of a delivery from Sean Abbott
02:05as soon as he got it both
02:10in the air as it carried yeah on this occasion it just holds its line Higgins goes for it takes
02:17the bait and in a deep gully line takes a catch 22 meters away diving forward picks up
02:27now full and straight umpire Debenhams says not out now that was so full it could well have
02:34original decision not out and it's not out pitching outside leg go back on field to Ben
02:39signal now good decision umpire Ben Debenhams gets it right
02:45Ben Debenhams gets it right
02:52that's been timed sweetly and on this occasion the fielding's not as good
03:00tricky phase and now he's feeling very settled that one is right into the stands
03:08and shelled in the crowd generally prefers pace on the ball but when he gets the opportunity he
03:15will put you away this big stroke for him down lickside and he's trying to force one but in the
03:23end he's forced it straight into the hands of Adam Milne at backward point this is not going
03:31the London Spirit's way but no fuller
03:34oh Leon Dawson has found the angle desperately needed a release got what he was looking for
03:46we're now going again for that gap we just saw it and it's been exposed twice here
03:52so this uh gamble of bowling many how back-to-back is not paid off
03:59well here we go
04:00here we go this is what the crowd have been waiting for unleash Dreyras Dreyras is that
04:11person who can turn things around so just surprised that they've stuck with spin while he's there
04:19pace on short and smacked into the mound stand and caught in the crowd brilliant crowd catch
04:28this just sits up for Dawson to hit
04:33oh brilliant brilliant
04:38have to admit we have seen some lovely catches in that part of the ground so far
04:42so Dan Moosley taking one inside the ground and this one outside
04:48full toss on this occasion and a gunshot sounded like
04:54powers it down the ground as Dreyras brings up the 100 for the London Spirit
05:04slower ball and taken good catch from Adam Milne running back
05:14inside edge and we'll go fine and we'll go for four
05:17go for four
05:22to Russell
05:25oh it's just clipped has it gone all the way oh it has
05:31Jacob Bethel in the deep
05:33oh that's the slot that is the slot from Russell he does not miss out on deliveries like that
05:57yeah he's been waiting waiting for the Phoenix bowlers to miss
06:01haven't missed that often this evening
06:04being on target majority of the time
06:15oh it's slot again and he's got all of it again no he hasn't
06:21yes he has Liam Livingston makes the catch and steps on the rope and it's the power of Russell
06:28that takes them there
06:31right on the rope here Livingston and it's his left leg left heel that steps on the rope
06:40he's all the hard work and he's gutted
06:47oh a bit of luck possibly going his way or has Dawson got this under control yes he does
06:54time to celebrate for London Spirits and the Lords crowd as they get an early breakthrough
06:59but Liam Dawson was very confident about it from the outset running making sure nobody's
07:04close to him had to spin around a little bit then ended up taking the catch lovely catch
07:16oh dear another thick edge that's flying away Dawson this time around we'll get nowhere near it
07:21just traveling far enough for Livingston to get underway
07:30we've seen a few edges already tonight
07:35and a bit of fortune may be going the way of London Spirit at the
07:38moment they're on a little bit of a roll
07:45perfect placement timing's good enough as well
07:52oh yeah that's good this is exactly what the Birmingham Phoenix will need after a
07:57couple of wickets has fallen get a couple of boundaries and just turn the momentum around
08:06he's hit that two straight he's hit that two straight
08:10again the luck going the way of London Spirits a little touch on it and about a short of his ground
08:21well well well has he got a little nick on this the umpire says yes he does and that is interesting
08:31oh hit beautifully down the ground touch fuller two four from Ellis
08:41pulled away this time from Bethel latches onto it and it's
08:46big into the stands that is a beautiful shot short banged away
08:56yeah big 90 meters as a left-hander you don't mind hitting on that angle
09:02coming over the wicket and going across
09:07oh beautiful shot again from Bethel
09:10early pressure on Higgins into the game just giving himself room and accessing over a mid-off
09:21oh this is in the gap beautifully timed and we'll get four valiant effort by Nathan Ellis
09:32good bowling again very smart bowling knows his limitations very good with his yorker
09:40i've seen that before finals day the old t20
09:47well the reverse sweep is on and he gets all of it up and over backward point there's no fielder out
09:53there and Bethel is on the charge catch it down the wicket up and over oh he's through extra cover
10:04just wonder whether there could have been a better effort made at extra cover but
10:07a reverse sweep you the first ball and now i'm going through extra cover the second ball
10:14into the pitch again he skied this feel the stone is running for it he takes it what a catch that is
10:21not only did he bowl the ball he wanted he put the big yards in
10:24and took a brilliant catch under pressure
10:31once you're in you can time it like that and it gets through Hetmeyer
10:38oh that has gone a long way Andre Russell's mood's not going to improve with that
10:46Benny Howell in good nick Dinesh Kartik said and he's just belted it into the grandstand
10:55there is that reverse and he's reversed it to extra cover
10:58says the man who has a tennis court in his house
11:10he knocked it around he knocked it for four excellent from full up
11:18throw a ball and third is up and Russell has given up the chase
11:23now on the pitch he tries to go for it he finds long off catch is taken
11:30Ollie Stone has caught well off his own bowling he's now caught well off Dawson's bowling
11:39smashed over extra cover that will do it Benny Howell with the winning boundary
