Former England bowler on BBC RadioWonderful shot from Bates. She had the confidence to know she could clear the ropes.
Invincibles 131-2published at 90 balls
90 ballsSix! Suzie Bates has been quiet for the last little while but she bursts into attack now, charging Burns and launching the ball back down the ground for a maximum.
A reverse follows, past short third for four! Four more, this time pulled away into the gap. Brilliant from Bates. The Originals have had no answer.
Invincibles 122-2published at 85 balls
85 ballsCross keeps Bates to just a single from the free hit but it's another expensive set from the Originals skipper.
It's not been her day with the ball, she finishes with 0-35 from her 20 balls.

15:55 BST 31 August 2022Manchester Originals' Ellie Threlkeld on the player mic: "Those two wickets is exactly what we needed. Now we need to apply pressure.
"I think the pitch is better than we all thought.
"We're aiming for 130 runs - let's do it!"
Invincibles 118-2published at 83 balls
83 ballsToo wide from Cross, Kapp throws the bat at it and a thick outside edge is up and over short third. Four more.
And now a no-ball from Cross. It's a big one, too. A free hit to come.
Superchargers men 100-5published at 74 balls
74 ballsThe momentum is with Southern Brave at Headingley as the hundred comes up for the Northern Superchargers off 74 deliveries.
Harry Brook (29 off 17) and Adam Hose (nine off 11) have both fallen in the last 10 balls.

Very good set from Erin Burns, just two singles come from it. She got away with a couple of long hops but Originals won't mind that.

Former England bowler on BBC RadioKapp has come out looking pretty sharp today.
Invincibles 109-2published at 75 balls
75 ballsA rare loose delivery from Jones and Kapp is able to carve it away behind square, four more to the Invincibles total.
A quarter of the innings to go. How many is too many for the Originals to chase down in quick time?
Invincibles 102-2published at 70 balls
70 ballsBates 51, Kapp 5
With 30 balls left, it is looking good for the Oval Invincibles.
A reminder that a win would be enough for them to take top spot in the group and go straight into Saturday's Lord's final.
The Originals need a big win to overhaul Trent Rockets and grab the third and final play-off spot on net run-rate.
Invincibles 102-2published at 69 balls
69 ballsStraight as an arrow, back over Kate Cross' head for four. What a way to bring up the 100 for the Invincibles. Glorious from Kapp.

65 ballsCapsey b Ecclestone 18 (Invincibles 96-2)
Leg stump out of the ground!
Capsey moved across her stumps and went for the big sweep, Ecclestone saw her go and really fired the ball in.
Capsey misses, Ecclestone hits and the bowler enjoyed that one. Big wicket for the Originals.

A mightily impressive half-century from Suzie Bates and it comes up from only 33 balls.
The New Zealander has looked in the mood from the off and there is still plenty of time for her to do more damage.

15:41 BST 31 August 2022Manchester Originals' Ellie Threlkeld on the player mic: "[Working with Sarah Taylor] has been amazing. She's very much a modern keeper and it's good having a fresh set of eyes on me as a keeper.
"I'm pretty pleased with how it's going. I'd love to be contributing more with the bat with this team.
"That's what I'm going to do over the winter and try and get myself higher up the order next year."
Invincibles 93-1published at 60 balls
60 ballsBates 48, Capsey 17
Power with the first boundary in the set, great touch with the second as Capsey just guides the ball past backward point.
It was a slower ball from Graham but there was still enough pace on it that Capsey could run it away and find the boundary.
