    Superchargers 106-3

    Wowww! It is brought up with another crunching six that goes 91 metres.

    David Willey is smashing it. It comes up off 28 balls, with three fours and three sixes.

    Don't go anywhere. The rest of this innings could be a lot of fun.

    It feels like the men's competition is still working out what a par score is.

    That's a superb 20-balls from Mason Crane.

    He concedes just 19, and he broke that 62-run partnership between David Willey and Harry Brook.

  5. Postpublished at 19:17 British Summer Time 3 August 2021

    Mason Crane is going to continue again. That will be two 10-ball sets for the leggie tonight.

    That may well be a tournament first.

  6. Superchargers 95-3published at Ball 65

    David Willey is really looking to run hard, and he's got a more than willing partner in Dane Vilas.

    Willey ends the over with a couple of well-run twos again. He is panting, though. He is absolutely knackered.

    That could be the wicket London Spirit were looking for just to open that door and put a bit of pressure on a batting side that has been dominant.

    Brook c Cullen b Crane 28 (Superchargers 90-3)

    Revenge!

    Harry Brook might have slogged Mason Crane into the top tier of the Lord's pavilion but Crane has come back really well.

    Brook looks to slog sweep over mid-wicket, but gets a top edge which just loops straight to Blake Cullen at third for a routine catch.

    Here's how 19-year-old Blake Cullen had Adam Lyth caught behind.

    It was a lovely piece of bowling.

  12. Superchargers 89-2published at Ball 60

    Willey 38, Brook 28

    Some good placement and running from David Willey in that over saw him twice pick up a couple through mid-wicket.

    Superchargers are really well placed here. They could get a massive score.

  13. Not outpublished at Ball 57

    This is filthy.

    Roeloef van der Merwe throws in a no-ball, about belly button height, that David Willey pulls to Ravi Bopara, who takes an excellent catch on the mid-wicket boundary.

    It's a no ball, though. Willey has missed out there. He looks at his bat in disappointment.

  14. Superchargers 80-2published at Ball 55

    Eoin Morgan is started to look a bit worried here. He's a calm and collected guy, but there is slightly etching of panic on his face.

    He turns back to the left-arm spin of Roelof van der Merwe.

    What a shot! The way he picked the ball - he picked it early, got down to his knees and played it over the square leg fielder. It's massive.

    This is BIG.

    Mohammad Nabi is back on, and David Willey just slog sweeps him about 20 rows back, and stands back up ready for the next ball.

    The partnership between Willey and Harry Brook is worth 50 now.

    It has been very exciting so far. Superchargers will be pretty happy after the first 50 balls. They have a good foundation. Harry Brook again looking so good.

  19. Superchargers 69-2published at Ball 50

    Fair play to Mason Crane.

    That second set threatened to be disastrous after the first ball was pumped into the pavillion, but he's fought back really well with just a single from the last four balls.

    The 10-ball set costs 10.

  20. Not outpublished at 19:03 British Summer Time 3 August 2021

    Yep, as expected it him outside the line of off stump.

    On we go.
