Manchester Originals bowler Lauren Filer speaking on BBC Two: "I have been bowling on the slower end so nice to hear I am bowling quicker. It is not the result we wanted but we tried our best on this pitch.

"On a pitch like this we could have played a lot better but we just didn't play how we wanted. The total was not big enough for our bowlers to defend and that is cricket sometimes. We knew it was a big challenge and we tried to be positive."

On Mahika Gaur: "She is great. She picks up the hill so that's fine by me! She is amazing and she knows how to swing the ball which is really threatening."

On the World Cup: "It was great to get that call from Lot [Charlotte Edwards] and we are excited to get going. India is a different challenge and one that I am looking forward to. Get us on that plane!"

Northern Superchargers opener Alice Davidson-Richards speaking on BBC Two: "That was pretty smooth. There were a few nerves this morning but it went exactly how we wanted it to."

On opening: "I have the technique and game that allows me to come out and open. It has taken me a while but I feel like I am coming into it. You focus on the team ticking along but it was nice to get a few nice shots in there.

"Everyone brings something different to the team and different strengths. We have adapted and flexed to play what we did today. Hopefully we can stick to those roles and get to the final."

Manchester Originals captain Beth Mooney speaking on BBC Two: "A pretty rough few hours for us. That's the way these competitions go sometimes and there are lots of improvements that we have tried to make all tournament as a unit.

"We are gutted to have not made it. We let ourselves down in the last two games but that is short format cricket for you. We have had excellent support from the staff so it has not all been bad.

"The Hundred is high quality and the games go to the wire which has been fun. It is disappointing but as a whole it is an excellent format for the women's game so hopefully there are a few more years of it to come."

On Mahika Gaur and Lauren Filer: "Gaur has been unbelievable and Filer has come into her own and looks really clear and tight with her plans.

"I am looking forward to the World Cup now."

Northern Superchargers bowler Kate Cross speaking on BBC Two: "I have felt good all tournament. I tweaked my run-up and my alignment got better. It is pretty simple at Headingley, you have to bowl straight and on a length.

"We talked about different lengths up and down the hill. You can over stride at times. We have coped well with that and we feel like we have found our formula here.

"We will feel confident now as we have played brilliant throughout the tournament and we wanted to make it difficult for teams playing here.

"We have spoke about the dimensions here and being the best fielding unit here. We have executed that really well."

On her personal goals: "I love playing for this team. If I am my best version, then the team is the best version. I wanted to be that bowler. I love this ground and there is not one ego in this team. I am not surprised that the cricket is emulating that. I set myself that as a goal - to be a good team player."

Southern Brave secured a spot in the final with a game to spare after winning all seven of their matches so far.

Laura Wolvaardt has been their top scorer with 199 so far, while Lauren Bell is the top wicket taker of the whole competition to date.

Second place in the table also means the Superchargers go through to the final if the game on Saturday is washed out.

And rain is forecast.

With that win the Northern Superchargers have finished second in the table. They take on London Spirit in the Eliminator for the chance to face Southern Brave in the final.

They will take some beating on that evidence...

Sutherland finished with 30 from just 17 balls. A destructive yet deft contribution.

Northern Superchargers have got a clinical win and Annabel Sutherland has had a day out.

They came out with control with the ball and then it was only a matter of finishing it off. Annabel Sutherland is the star of the show for me.

Annabel Sutherland times a drive through the off side to perfection for four and that is a thrashing. They have reached their target with 35% of the innings left...

It is so important for a team to be able to play successfully on their home ground. Northern Superchargers are on their way to a clean sweep.

Dangerous batters have so many options. Phoebe Litchfield can play the sweep and she can adjust and open the face of the bat.

Beautiful shot.

Sophie Ecclestone looks like a bowler handed a thankless task here, she comes around the wicket and Phoebe Litchfield carves her through point for a boundary. Then there's a wild wide for four more.

Almost there!

Northern Superchargers coach Lisa Keightley speaking on BBC Two: "We are happy to be playing well on our home pitch and playing good consistent cricket. We have been working hard to do good things and learn and get better each game. We have done that all tournament.

"We have a lot of younger players who are keen to do well and the Superchargers have played well for many years. We were keen to keep the team together so we tried to keep that going.

"If we play like this we will put ourselves in a good position in the eliminator."

It is great to see control from these batters. It's one thing hitting a boundary but when you find control all the way through the shot, it really messes with the bowler.

Lauren Filer is back on with 20 needed. Nothing loose. The Superchargers can just milk a few singles here, there is no pressure whatsoever. Or, Phoebe LItchfield can rock back and pull a fine shot for four when Filer drops a touch short.

Just 14 needed now.

Melie Kerr is back on to give it a twirl, Annabel Sutherland dances down the track to meet her on the full but she can't get it away. Sutherland then pulls out a majestic reverse switch hit and blasts it away for a huge four!

Phoebe Litchfield stretches to reach one and sweeps it away for a hard, flat four. The Superchargers are racing towards a win here.

Alex Hartley
Former England bowler on BBC Two

Northern Superchargers have looked highly impressive. They have been one of the best teams in this tournament for a few years now.

The Superchargers need 35 to win off 55 balls.
