Poor Ryan Higgins runs in to try to take a catch at deep backward square, he can't get there, no one could, but the ball scuttles under his dive and rolls for four.

Ball goes for a booming bouncer, it leaps too high and is called a no-ball so Brave win with a whimper rather than a bang with 31 balls to spare. 

Southern Brave win by nine wickets. 

Payne comes back and Stoinis takes a single off the bottom of his bat when he tries to pull and the ball clips the cue end. He'll need to chalk it. Vince runs a hard two with a legside flick and then pulls for a single. Higgins fields that one and the crowd is up on their feet to applaud him doing something right, hooting joyously and sarcastically. 

Another long hop from a leg-spinner, this one from Ahmad, and Vince butchers it with a cut stroke. Higgins makes a hash of his rudimentary stop on the boundary, sliding past it and the ball goes for four. The home crowd laughs at him. After a couple of singles, Vince launches Noor Ahmad into the long pasture at cow corner for six! Twelve to win required off 40. 

Stoinis takes on his best friend Zampa and pushes him for a single through cover. Vince leans forward to sweep very fine for three. Blimey! Stoinis is quick. Stoinis stands tall to slap the wrong 'un down the ground for a single. One ball left and Vince uses it to bring up his fifty with a brutal cut for four. Fire had next to no chance and have bowled accordingly, without any belief that they could even attempt to defend their woeful total. 

Davies lumps a drive over mid-off for four, no footwork just brute force but holes out
