Amidst the unrest, Ollie Pope stepped up to the crease and managed to stabilize the innings slightly with a contribution of 33 runs. Jamie Overton also provided some much-needed support, scoring 27 runs.

Following Owen’s departure, Matthew Wade added 27 runs before also being dismissed, causing a temporary setback for the team.
The Hurricanes’ top order experienced a rough patch, collapsing under pressure for just a handful of low scores.
