Southern Brave v Northern Superchargers, Utilita Bowl
With five to win, Clark hits final ball for six to secure Superchargers win
Superchargers 141-7: Clark 38* (24); Overton 3-29
Brave 139-5: Evans 53 (34), Coles 49* (36); Duffy 3-26
Brave suffer first defeat of season and are third in the table
Superchargers go level on points, but slightly behind on net run-rate
18 runs needed
Tymal Mills back into the attack - Graham Clark throws his hands at his first delivery and sends the ball through the covers for four.
Five more runs off the rest of the set - this is going to be tight.

It's been an exceptional innings from Kathryn Bryce. She's played well so she'll be disappointed. Jess Jonassen just sneaks it through the gate, brilliant work on the stumps from Sarah Bryce.
K Bryce st S Bryce b Jonassen 45 (Originals 70-3)
Jack Skelton

Too little, too late. But Jess Jonassen has fired one through nicely, having lured Kathryn Bryce down the track and Bryce's sister Sarah completes the stumping.
A fine innings of 45 off 41 from the older Bryce though, that has set Originals well on their way to victory.

We have a game on our hands! With Chris Jordan off the pitch, it possibly leaves the Brave a touch short.

Lovely shot by Mitch Santner. He uses his feet and didn't try to hit it too hard.
27 runs needed
Vital boundaries!
Mitchell Santner sends the penultimate ball of compatriot Michael Bracewell down the ground for six, then cracks a four through the covers.
Santner was on eight from nine deliveries prior to those two boundaries but he may be kicking into gear now - his twin blows have made the target suddenly looks more achievable.
40 runs needed
Just four runs come from James Coles' third set of five deliveries - he's got figures of 0-14 thus far today.
A Mitchell Santner nudge down to long-on off the final delivery brings up the Superchargers century.
Just one boundary in the last 20 balls, but Chris Jordan is off the field having bowled just one set so Brave will have to juggle their plans for the death.
A few things to ponder for both sides.

I am still backing Southern Brave. Chris Jordan going down with a bit of a niggle.
It looks like his groin. Chris has got 15 balls left. Do they risk bowling an over of spin?

Jofra Archer returns and the Superchargers batters can't get him away - he goes for four singles and a wide.
Superchargers are still in the hunt here, but they need to be careful their required run total isn't too large in the final 10 balls.
49 runs needed
Graham Clark picks up his first four, finding the gap in the ropes between mid-wicket and long-on off Michael Bracewell.
Meanwhile Chris Jordan appears to be grimacing a little, he might have tweaked a muscle while fielding in that set.

Northern Superchargers are into the all-rounders and bowlers now.
They have got a lot of work to do here.
58 runs needed
Mitchell Santner comes in at seven and takes two through square.
Two fresh batters at the crease with Graham Clark at the other end.
That's Overton done with figures of 3-29 from his 20 balls.

He lifts Craig Overton's delivery out to Hilton Cartwright at deep mid-wicket.
The Superchargers batters have done a really good job at picking out fielders for the catches today.
A third wicket for Overton too - he's having a good day.
Need 39 off 50 balls

After those two early wickets, Manchester Originals have steadied the ship and are somewhat coasting to their modest target of 74.
Just 39 needed from 50 balls now.

Another simple catching opportunity.
Harry Brook has played that with his hands out in front. The wicket, again, takes another scalp in this game.
Brook c Jordan b Mills 24 (Superchargers 75-4)
Image source, Getty ImagesThe skipper goes!
Just a bit of a push from Harry Brook, and he sends Tymal Mills' ball straight to Chris Jordan at cover for his second catch.
Southern Brave really on top now.
66 runs needed
Harry Brook had one four from his first 12 balls, but adds two more from consecutive balls off Tymal Mills.
He cracks the seamer over mid-off then slices past Craig Overton's finger tips at short third.

A good shot, Dan Lawrence just used the pace that James Coles had on offer.
Just outside the reach of Tymal Mills.
75 runs needed
Handy shot from Dan Lawrence, striking James Coles' delivery off his legs and off to the fine leg boundary.
The ball beats Tymal Mills out there and goes for four.
