Match nine of the ongoing The Hundred 2023 Men witnessed a humdinger of an encounter between Welsh Fire and Oval Invincibles.  The Invincibles climbed their way back from the jaws of defeat chasing 139 and managed to end the match in a tie, thanks to a 38-run blitz from Tom Curran. 

Curran powered himself to an 18-ball 38 which included one four and four sixes, after all other batters faltered.  Needing 10 off three, Curran dispatched David Payne for a massive six, which went outside the ground, much to the amusement of commentators Ravi Shastri and Nasser Hussain. 

"it's out of the Oval, it's massive" said Shatri, while Hussain stated "that's the biggest I have seen"
