Northern derby part 2published at 18:46 British Summer Time 21 August 2022
I've just about recovered from that blockbuster game between the Northern Superchargers women and the Manchester Originals women. If you missed it, you've missed one of the all-time great Hundred games that had EVERYTHING.
Deandra Dottin dispatched the ball to all parts as the Originals set the Superchargers 161 to win. It seemed far too much but some magic from Laura Wolvaardt helped steer them magnificently to a shock victory. If you didn't see it GO AND WATCH THE HIGHLIGHTS!
Deandra Dottin and Laura Wolvaardt showed us just how to bat on this wicket and the men will have been watching and itching to get out there too.
It's now time for Faf du Plessis' Superchargers to take on Laurie Evans' Originals and, if this afternoon was anything to go by, you'll need an umbrella because it could start raining boundaries.
Evans comes in to captain the Originals tonight after Jos Buttler was ruled out with an injury.
