    WICKETpublished at Ball 36

    Lynn c Davies b Jordan 26 (Superchargers 47-2)

    Called it!

    Chris Lynn goes for a big shot from Jordan's first ball, but he's got himself caught on the boundary. That's a big wicket - when Lynn gets going, it's brutal.

  2. Superchargers 47-1published at Ball 35

    Willey follows it up with a single and these two batters are looking pretty settled now.

    Can Brave bring themselves back into this? James Vince turns to Chris Jordan to try and do just that.

    That's an enormous slog sweep!

    First of the game!

    David Willey is enjoying himself now, launching the ball into the stands for six. The early wicket clearly hasn't bothered him too much.

    I once accidentally hit Tymal Mills' slower ball over the top for four. I was expecting the quicker one. The next one was very, very quick and I decided to get down the other end and watch him...

    Chris Lynn gets hit in a potentially delicate area but he doesn't seem in too much pain.

    Tymal Mills changes his pace so much, and Lynn just didn't pick up on it.

    That was in the Lynn arc. It was simplicity itself: see ball, hit ball.

  9. Superchargers 33-1published at Ball 25

    It was a very dramatic start but it's calmed down a little since then with the batting team just trying to rebuild a bit.

    But Chris Lynn sees the Superchargers through to the end of the powerplay with another crunching four.

    It's a solid start at best. They've maybe decided to play the slightly longer game and take the innings a little bit deeper by giving themselves a platform and understanding of the wicket.

  11. Superchargers 22-1published at Ball 17

    David Willey joins the party, smashing Danny Briggs for four. After that first ball wicket, the Superchargers have fought back pretty well here.

    I didn't think we'd see Paul Stirling opening the bowling with his spin.

    He goes for six from his first set including another four to Chris Lynn.

  13. Superchargers 11-1published at Ball 10

    It's all happening! David Willey gets a top edge, the ball balloons up in the air but lands safely in front of the fielder.

    An eventful start.

    And another! Chris Lynn crunches it for four and that was hit very, very hard.

    You have to get it right early on to Chris Lynn. Garton got his wrist wrong and directed that one down the leg side.

  16. Superchargers 6-1published at Ball 6

    After his impressive start, George Garton is kept on for another set of five but he concedes his first four.

    The first run of the game comes from a wide.

    David Willey survives his first ball, at least!

    What a start. There is some serious pace on show tonight. That is an absolute pearler. Late swing. I talked Adam Lyth up, but he walked across, perhaps expecting something short.
