Mitchell Marsh and Dan Lawrence struck brutal half-centuries as SunRisers Leeds overcame Southern Brave in a tight encounter at Headingley to register their first win of the competition.

Opener Marsh smashed six sixes and four fours in a knock of 69 off 34 balls before Lawrence's unbeaten 51 from 25 balls took the hosts to 187-5.
