Du Plessis has played second fiddle so far in this partnership, he's been content to give Lyth the strike. It's a good set from Payne but there's barely any pressure on the batters.

Trent Rockets & former England all-rounder on BBC RadioSuperchargers are making it look easy. When you don't have that many runs to chase that can happen.

Two more fours for Lyth, through fine leg off a wayward ball from Dwaine Pretorius and then again through the legside. He looks like a man in a hurry.

It's exactly the start the Superchargers would have wanted, there really is no margin of error for the Fire bowlers.

Jake Ball bowls the second set of five and Lyth immediately looks to charge him. He picks up a four with a flick to fine leg. It's followed by a big six over midwicket, a great start for him.

A sloppy start from bowler and keeper as four byes are conceded. Payne then tightens his line and length for the rest of the first set of five.

Many thanks Josef.
Earlier the Welsh Fire women were successful in defending a total which on paper didn't look too daunting. Can the men follow suit and register their first win this year?
They certainly have it all to do against a strong looking batting line up.

20:20 BST 26 August 2022How important will Ben Duckett's 64 off 48 prove to be then?
He was the only Welsh Fire batter who managed to get set on what he described as "a really difficult pitch".

20:18 BST 26 August 2022Welsh Fire batter Ben Duckett to Sky Sports: “It’s a really difficult pitch. I felt like we couldn’t hit it down the ground. But personally I think we have a chance. We have to keep the stumps in play and try and take wickets, but you never know.
“Maybe last game on a similar wicket we bowled wide. But we have to keep the stumps in play for all 100 Hundred balls. I think new batters coming in on that pitch will find it tough.”
