    Eoin Morgan will be under a lot of pressure here. It won't be easy being out there in the first 10 deliveries either.

    It could be an opportunity for him though.

    I wouldn't be surprised if David Willey bowled 15 balls in the powerplay here.

    This is extraordinary.

    David Willey is the king of the Lord's.

    Inglis c Vilas b Willey 2 (Spirit 5-2)

    I mean, this is a properly rubbish start from London Spirit.

    This time it's Josh Inglis who slaps a simple catch to Dane Vilas.

    Over 85% of you were backing Northern Superchargers to win this game in the interval..

    Josh Inglis comes dancing down and swivels away a single, before Luis Reece is left swishing at fresh air.

    David Wiley is going to bowl 10 on the trot.

    David Willey can't put a foot wrong. He's putting his team right on top.

    It is a phenomenal catch. He timed the jumped to perfection because the ball was travelling at some stage.

    What a catch! He plucked it out of the sky and it is absolutely superb.

    Adam Rossington can't believe it.

    Rossington c Brook b Willey 1 (Spirit 2-1)

    My word, what a catch!

    Harry Brook and David Willey ruined Spirit's evening with the bat and now they're doing the same with the ball, as Brook leaps to his right and takes a stunning grab, the ball almost behind him, to dimiss Adam Rossington.

    I always think as a batter in Twenty20 cricket or the Hundred you still need to give yourself some time, even if it just three or four deliveries.

    Slapped along the ground by Adam Rossington and there is no run.

    Thanks, Callum.

    I'll be watching this on repeat for much of the near future.
