Ben Martindale and Freddie McCann raised 50 inside 11 overs as the Outlaws made a solid start. When Price had Verreynne caught behind with the score 265 for 5 in the 46th, 300 remained an attainable goal. Hutton's accuracy did for Cameron Bancroft, but Bracey and Price safely negotiated the new ball. The more aggressive of the two, Bracey went to 50 from 52 balls, while Price flourished after the introduction of spin. Gloucestershire appeared to be cruising when Stone produced a dramatic burst of three wickets in seven balls to turn the game on its head.
