Menâs Hundred | Clinical bowling helps Southern Brave outshine Manchester Originals
Southern Brave returned to winning form with a seven-wicket victory over Manchester Originals. Despite struggles with their top-order batting, Wayne Madsen's 43 off 37 balls helped the Originals reach 116/6 whereas the Brave's top and middle-order batting ensured a win with 22 balls remaining.
Â
The Braves got off to a flying start with Alex Davis setting the pace with a quick 24 off 11 balls bringing the score to 35/0 by the third over. However, the Originals found success with a change to spin as Tom Hartley dismissed Davis on the 16th ball. Thereafter, James Vince and Leus du Plooy then took the reins and added 33 runs and taking the score to 62/1 by the eighth over. Usama Mir then struck removing Braves' skipper Vince on the 50th ball. Following Vince's departure, du Plooy also fell as the Originals started to make their presence felt. With only 25 runs needed from 33 balls, the 2021 champions were on the brink of victory. Ultimately, Laurie Evansâ 23 off 14 balls towards the end ensured a comfortable seven-wicket win for the Brave and propelling them to the third spot in the points table.

Needs someone
Surely needs to be someone like Keaton Jennings (who has close to a 100 avg in red ball for the last two years) or Phil Salt who fits the Bazball style and has experience opening in both white ball internationals and domestic red ball

Perfect bazball player
Phil Salt seems like the perfect BazBall opener? Why not try him in a lower risk series?
