Superchargers beat Phoenix by 36 runs to go top of table
Malan 58, Crawley 45 and Brook 31* in hosts 193-5
Phoenix well short despite Bethell's 48 and Livingstone's 46
'What a shot!' - Brook hits unorthodox scoop six on first ball
After watching his England teammate, Zak Crawley smash 45 off 23 balls.
Harry Brook walked to the crease, and played an outrageous scoop over his head to grab a six off his first ball.
A shame the English batter has not faced more balls...

That was hit so hard by Harry Brook. It absolutely flew to the fence like a bullet.
Dan Lawrence pummels Adam Milne for four down the ground and then later in the set Harry Book waspishly pulls the Phoenix seamer for four on the front foot.
Harry Brook and Dan Lawrence have 15 balls left. 200 might be beyond the Supercharges after a good fightback by Phoenix.

Miller lbw b Wood 0 (Superchargers 153-4)
Ball-tracking technology shows it would have hit leg stump.
A golden duck for David Miller.
Chris Wood on a hat-trick.
There were two sounds but it looks like it was David Miller's pads rubbing together. No bat involved.

There's no bat on it, it's plum in the middle.
Now then. David Miller might be out firsy ball here after being struck on the pad by Chris Wood and given out on field.
Miller sends it upstairs.

Brook's shot is just the 11th time that a batter has scooped their first ball of the innings for six, in the history of T20/100-ball cricket. The other player to have achieved the same feat in The Hundred is Steve Eskinazi for Welsh Fire off Craig Overton in 2023.
Malan c Southee b Wood 58 (Superchargers 153-4)
Clever bowling from Chris Wood.
He changes up his pace. Dawid Malan attempts to paddle it, but is caught by Tim Southee at short third.
Dawid Malan moves on to 58 with a biff through the covers for four off Liam Livingstone. 20 balls left and 200 in sight for Northern Superchargers here.

It's almost like the most vertical scoop I've ever seen.
He enjoyed that one himself Harry Brook and so did the crowd.
'What a shot!' - Brook hits unorthodox scoop six on first ball
How's this for a way to get off the mark!
Harry Brook scoops his first ball from Tim Southee over his head for six and falls over in the process.
Incredible stuff.

I almost feel like I heard a cheer from the crowd there because we all know who's about to walk in and the last balls here are going to be destructive with Harry Brook charging into the crease.
There's going to be some fireworks here.
Pepper c Duckett b Southee 28 (Superchargers 138-2)

Two brilliant shots there from Michael Pepper. The first one brutal force and the second one cheeky, but both very well executed.

Every ball is a free hit now for Michael Pepper and Dawid Malan. They'll be looking to get up to 200.

I know it's a brave call but I'd be pulling Michael Pepper off with Harry Brook and Dan Lawrence ready to go...
