    First boundary since the 42nd ball but he's hit that a long way into the press box window!

  2. Superchargers 111-3published at 28 balls left

    51 runs needed

    He's not fully fit but David Willey can still hit a long ball - that one is smashed straight back over Andre Russell's head for six!

    A big hit - and a much-needed one for the Superchargers.

    The Manchester Originals have applied a vice-like grip to Northern Superchargers' chase. They have turned this game on its head.

    The worm shows Northern Superchargers Men are one run behind Manchester Originals Men. Northern Superchargers Men are 104 for 3 after 70 balls. At the same stage Manchester Originals Men were 105 for 2.

    Really good from Tom Hartley, only four runs from that last five.

    David Willey does seem to be moving a little better for the Superchargers. Will that be good enough to take them to victory?

    We've not had a boundary since the 42nd ball of the innings.

    On paper Northern Superchargers should still win this chase from here. But as we know, things can change very quickly!

    It did bounce. Nothing doing and on we go.

    Superchargers 100-3

    The Originals appeal for a caught and bowled as the ball loops up to Hartley off Willey's boot. It did look like it bounced but they'll check it...

    I wonder if spin is harder for David Willey to face because of his lack of mobility?

    It feels like a long time since we had a boundary. Matt Parkinson has gone for 15 off 15 balls which is top bowling from the spinner.

  9. Superchargers 100-3published at 35 balls left

    62 runs needed

    The 100 is up for the Superchargers but that is an excellent set from Matt Parkinson again. He is only going at a run a ball.

    Amidst this injury concern for Willey, the Originals have just managed to put the breaks on.

    Here's the latest worm update. Superchargers' game to lose?

    Willey has told the physio he is fine to continue. It's as you were... for now.

    I'm not convinced with the adrenaline going that David Willey will actually want to go off. The physio has come out and said 'are you okay' but he's been sent back so looks like he will continue.

  13. Superchargers 94-3published at 40 balls left

    68 runs needed

    There is movement on the Superchargers bench, I'm not sure how much longer Willey is going to be out there.

    Adam Hose is ready to go on the boundary edge as the physio goes out to chat to Willey again.

    Meanwhile, the game itself is still firmly in the balance.

  14. Superchargers 90-3published at 44 balls left

    72 runs needed

    Willey clobbers the first ball back from Abbott into the covers and is able to get back for two.

    He looked fine running, the issue came when he knew he had to slow down to turn and go back for the second.

    Right then, David Willey has put his pad back on and looks like he is going to continue. He is still flexing that left leg, though.

    Watch this space.

    He just started to hobble as he turned for a second run. Runners are allowed in the Hundred but he is going to continue which is a little surprising given their batting line-up. Do you really want someone who is slightly compromised out there?

    David Willey was holding the back of his hamstring. Has he got a bit cramp? He was overstretching it and wouldn't be doing that if he had done something more serious. As a player this early in the tournament you don't want to risk it, though

  19. Superchargers 88-3published at 45 balls left

    74 runs needed

    David Willey is the new batter for the Superchargers but how long will be be out there? He hit Russell for a couple of runs but seemed to tweak something as he came back for the second.

    There is a strategic timeout being taken and the physio is out to have a good, long look at Willey's hamstring. It doesn't look great for the Superchargers all-rounder.

    This is really clever bowling from Andre Russell as he dragged his length back and he could not get any sort of power behind it. He's a calm character. Even his celebration was more expectancy than joy.
