    A 21-ball half century! That is what he can do. This has been a murderous knock from John Simpson. He's taken apart his county teammate, Steve Finn.

  2. Superchargers 172-4

    FOUR MORE AND FIFTY!

    John Simpson is murdering poor Steven Finn.

    John Simpson has a licence now. He can just try and hit every ball for six.

  4. Superchargers 168-4

    CRASH!

    Simpson absolute blasts another six down Headingley high street. Massive!

  5. Good luck Steve Finn!

    Oh no. Colin Ackermann is going to cop it from the crowd over there.

  7. Superchargers 162-4

    Oh my word! A nightmare from the fielder in the deep! Ackermann just has to gather and sling it back in but somehow the ball goes through him for four. Guess how that went down in Headingley?!

  8. Superchargers 157-4

    Good ball! Rapid, full, missed by the batter.

  9. Superchargers 157-4

    FOUR! Driven by Simpson, who is loving his life right now.

    The run map shows John Simpson scored 35 with 1 six, 5 fours, 3 two, and 3 singles for Northern Superchargers Men

    Manchester have gone to their trump card, Lockie Ferguson.

  11. Superchargers 153-4

    Back comes big Lockie. He has 10 balls to work with.

    Simpson cracks him straight to a man in the deep for two. The fielder fumbles and the Western Terrace erupts. Nailed him.

  12. Superchargers 151-4

    Simpson drops to one knee and carves a four through cover. Superb.

  13. Superchargers 147-4

    An overthrow run, a no-ball for a bouncer and down leg side. Pick the bones out of that.

    Thanks for sticking with us. I love you all.

    Alex, your adoring fans can now hear you wherever they are listening. Would you like to say something to them?

  16. Superchargers 143-4

    Remember, Vilas was originally picked by Manchester in the draft. He's taking them apart now for the Superchargers.

    BOOM! Vilas sends a one-bounce four down the ground.

    Would it be greedy of me to ask for a score of 200 tonight?

  19. Superchargers 138-4

    If you can't hear Alex Hartley on commentary on the website feed, we can only apologise. Apparently, it is working as it should on Sounds.

    We are currently working to fix the problem.

    Back on the pitch, Brathwaite is back.

  20. Superchargers 137-4

    We're looking at a big score here. Just how we like it.
