I reckon if Manchester Originals can be about 70 runs up after 50 balls, and then try to get another 70 runs, they will be in a nice little position.
I think they will really have to put their foot on the gas from 30 balls out.
Buttler 25, Ravindra 9
Too straight this time from Tom Lawes, especially with the fine leg fielder inside the circle, and Rachin Ravindra calmly flicks it past that man for four.
The Originals score has been boosted. These two, plus Heinrich Klaasen next, will be crucial.

There is a bit of trial by spin now. Adil Rashid, Mitchell Santner and Dan Lawrence can awfully get stuck in here. This is a used pitch so the ball can often get stuck in that middle phase.
Manchester Originals are going to have to rely on an innings from Jos Buttler to get them to a 140-type total.
The Superchargers squeeze is on with Adil Rashid conceding only three balls from his five balls. There have only been five runs from the past 10 balls of spin but Tom Lawes replaces Santner.
It's spin from both ends with Adil Rashid joining Mitchell Santner in the attack.

That's such a shame for Ben McKinney! He is a such a young player, one to definitely keep an eye on.
I did wonder with the shot, because he was trying to work it leg side, if it would've been worth reviewing. But if Jos Buttler says from the other end that you're out, you aren't going to argue with that.
Here's Rachin Ravindra, the elegant New Zealand left-hander, on his Hundred debut.
Women's competition: London Spirit 22-2 against Birmingham Phoenix
Image source, Getty ImagesLondon Spirit have toiled in the powerplay against Birmingham Phoenix, scoring just 22 and losing Cordelia Griffith from its final ball.
Em Arlott struck for her eighth wicket this season, bowling the Spirit number three.
Griffith never got going, with her nine runs coming from 12 deliveries.
McKinney lbw b Santner 11 (Originals 40-2)
Ben McKinney is pinned lbw by Mitchell Santner's spin. He wants to review but doesn't get much encouragement from Jos Buttler so wanders off.

Northern Superchargers pulled that powerplay back really nicely, I think it could've been a lot worse especially with Phil Salt at the top of the order.
The danger man is clearly Jos Buttler, who is in such good form at the moment.
Image source, Getty ImagesMatthew Potts looks annoyed because, having done so well to limit the scoring, the final ball of the powerplay is sliced for four by Jos Buttler.
Potts was only included for the Ireland series of England's upcoming series - Sonny Baker was picked to play South Africa too in contrast - so has a point to prove.

Northern Superchargers have Adil Rashid and they might feel that saving him for the middle balls of the innings will just hopefully offer a bit of control.
Mitchell Santner was expensive the other day, he went for 44 runs off his 20 balls. They might just feel that pace is the way to go in the powerplay today.
Potts starts this latest spell well, conceding just the two runs from the first three balls.

The USA international, who has played for Spirit in the last three editions of The Hundred, took two wickets and scored 25 runs in three matches this season.
Spirit have no plans to call-up a replacement for Norris, who will remain with the Lord's side for her recovery.
Matthew Potts is going to bowl the final five balls of the powerplay with Jos Buttler still on strike. Good tussle.

Jos Buttler is just continuing his good form from the other night in Cardiff, where he got 57 runs off 34 balls. He is quite a phenomenal player.
He makes hitting sixes look so easy and to be able to generate that power against a short-pitch delivery takes real skill. It takes great hand-eye coordination.
Jos Buttler has flat-batted this one for six too. The ball sails over mid-wicket.
