  1. Superchargers 72-5published at Ball 75

    I've got a lot of time for the Superchargers Iron Man-style plan of attack here. Cross is edged for another four by Wolvaardt.

    Suddenly a score over 100 is not out of the question.

    Wolvaardt does take a chance, and she's done the complete opposite to what I said she would do! I thought she'd play more cautiously and see Kate Cross off.

    And now Smith goes aerial down the ground to punch the ball to the rope. That'll do.

    Cross returns. Wolvaardt smashes her down the ground for four. Brilliant shot.

  5. Superchargers 58-5published at Ball 70

    Wolvaardt is the only batter who has shown any control here in the face of the Originals attack.

    The fans continue to flood in, but most of them won't be pleased with the scoreboard that greets them.

    Lamb keeps up the pressure. No room for the Superchargers' pair to swing.

    That's the problem when you lose so many wickets - even if you have a batter there, their opportunities to take risks are limited because they know they have to stay in.

    Wolvaardt is going to have to stay in until about 90 balls now, until she can start attacking.

    Matt is gonna end up with quite the tan if the wickets keep falling at this rate.

    This is probably stating the obvious but it’s really warm sitting behind those flamethrowers that go up after a boundary or wicket.

    So disappointing for the home side. They were just starting to build something.

    All the pressure is on Wolvaardt now.

    That's disappointing. It's silly running, there was never a run there and they were rebuilding nicely.

    Sterre Kalis was just trying to find her rhythm. It's another good bit of work from Ellie Threlkeld.

    Kalis run out 19 (Superchargers 54-5)

    Disaster for the Superchargers.

    There was never a run as Kalis pulled short. In ran square leg to collect, with the batters meeting in the middle and then retreating. The throw is good and Threlkeld does the rest.

  18. Superchargers 54-4published at Ball 60

    Some fine fielding at long off prevents a Wolvaardt lofted drive going for four.

    Here's Emma Lamb with more spin.

    It's nicely poised at this stage but you'd definitely rather be in the Originals' shoes.
