    Raine c de Kock b Mills 18 (Superchargers 115-6)

    Four, and out.

    It was probably a fair enough shot from Raine, who had to get a move on. He went for a ramp over the 'keeper but didn't get enough of it and it's a relatively easy catch for Quinton de Kock.

  3. Superchargers 114-5

    Shot! Ben Raine whacks Tymal Mills for four over his head. He gives himself room, moving away from the stumps and just clubs it straight.

    The Northern Superchargers haven't been smart enough with the bat.

  5. 6 runs

    Superchargers 105-5

    There's the first 'biff'. Dane Vilas helps himself to his first six.

  6. Charles Dagnall
    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra

    They'll have to biff it from here!

    The Superchargers have to be looking, realistically, at 155. But with the quality of Southern Brave's bowling, it will not be an easy task.

  8. Superchargers 99-5

    What can they get to from here? I imagine we'll see these two trying to go for it, but Brave have got a lot of bowling options.

  9. Superchargers 98-5

    Another four for Dane Vilas as the boundary fielder goes for a very impressive slide but ends up kneeing the ball over the rope. The crowd makes absolutely no noise whenever the Superchargers get a run.

    You can probably tell by the silence that's filled the Ageas Bowl that the top edge has gone for four...

  11. Superchargers 91-5

    Ben Raine takes George Garton for two consecutive fours, the first being not particularly convincing but the second is thumped gloriously for the off side.

    They'll need a few more of those.

  12. Alex Davies has taken two catches on the boundary so far, the first being a pretty decent grab to get rid of the dangerman Chris Lynn.

  13. Superchargers 80-5

    It's fair to say that Brave have been relentless with the ball but their fielding has backed the bowling up brilliantly.

    Stirling is a fantastic fielder. He might not look like your most agile fielder, but he moves well and he has good hands. He's a great man on and off the field. One of the nicest men around and he's dynamite to watch.

  15. Superchargers 78-5

    Paul Stirling!! The Irishman pulls out two stunning diving stops to save what was probably four each time.

  16. Chris Green
    Middlesex all-rounder on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra

    You do not want to give Chris Jordan even half a chance of a catch...

  17. Superchargers 77-5

    A huge shot from Ben Raine is launched up in the air from his first ball! But it lands safely, and he gets a bit of luck.

    Pressure creates a loose option. It's a poor shot from Simpson. If you're going to take the risk, back yourself, and hit straight through that mid-wicket boundary. All the momentum is in Southern Brave's favour.

    WICKET

    Simpson c Davies b Briggs 3 (Superchargers 75-5)

    You could just feel it coming.

    That's brilliant bowling from Brave as they squeezed the Superchargers, starving them for runs and Simpson played a loose shot, going for a switch hit that went straight to Alex Davies on the boundary.
