Scorecard. Table

Will Jacks hit his first half-century of this year’s edition of The Hundred to help MI London claim a nerve-shredding last-ball win over Southern Brave.

Jacks hit three fours and two sixes in his 41-ball knock of 54 to provide the backbone of MI’s chase of 130 on a tricky pitch in Southampton.

At 93-3 and with England all-rounder Jacks in good touch, MI had looked on course for a comfortable win only to lose four wickets for 34 runs.

The momentum shifted to Brave when Jacks was trapped lbw to a toe-crushing yorker from Marcus Stoinis, who had earlier removed MI skipper James Vince and Nicholas Pooran for ducks in consecutive deliveries.

Sherfane Rutherford’s 21 off 12 balls swung it back the visitors’ way only for a nail-biting finale as he and Rashid Khan were run out while Tom Curran was bowled by Nikhil Chaudhary.

With two runs needed from the final delivery of the match – bowled by Chaudhary – Ollie Pope managed to slash through point and scamper back for a second.

Brave had earlier posted 129-9 thanks to a 26-ball 49 from England wicketkeeper Jamie Smith at the top of the order.

Smith cracked six fours and two sixes before he chipped a slower ball from veteran seamer Richard Gleeson into the hands of long on.

Tristan Stubbs added 38 off 31 balls while Chaudhary made 13, but they were the only other Brave players to make double figures.

The wickets were shared around MI’s attack with Kiwi left-arm seamer Trent Boult the pick with 2-15 as Tom Curran, Sam Curran and Gleeson also claimed two apiece.

MI are third in the standings on eight points – level with leaders Manchester Super Giants and second-placed Welsh Fire having played a game more – while Brave are second bottom having lost their first three games.

The focus switches to Headingley in The Hundred on Tuesday, where Sunrisers Leeds host Manchester Super Giants in a double header.

In the women’s competition, the unbeaten Super Giants will hope to cut Southern Brave’s lead at the top of the table when they face the Sunrisers at 15:00 BST.

The Super Giants’ men are bidding to make it three wins from their opening three fixtures against their rivals from across the Pennines at 18:30 BST.
