Invincibles appear to have every base covered as they hunt a third successive title.<\/p>\n
As well as Cox, who brutally flogged anything short over the leg side, opener Will Jacks also hit three sixes in a 27-ball 45.<\/p>\n
After both fell, powerful finisher Donovan Ferreira crashed 24 from just nine balls to emphatically seal the win.<\/p>\n
While Cox is 63 runs clear at the top of the run-scoring chart, Ferreira has the tournament’s best strike-rate.<\/p>\n
Batting is their stronger suit, but the variety of their pace attack always gives skipper Sam Billings options.<\/p>\n
Leg-spinner Nathan Sowter has performed admirably as the sole spinner since Rashid Khan left for international duty with Afghanistan last week.<\/p>\n
Here he took 2-23 after Jamie Smith gave Spirit a fast start with 28 from 15, helping squeeze the scoring before 31 from 18 by Overton boosted the score.<\/p>\n
Sowter may well be joined by Australia spinner Adam Zampa for the final, with Invincibles in talks with the 33-year-old over a one-game deal. <\/p>\n
That would make their opponent’s task tougher still.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Invincibles appear to have every base covered as they hunt a third successive title.
