  1. WICKET

    Evans c Jacks b Narine 5 (Originals 25-2)

    Well, that stat speaks for itself!

    Laurie Evans looked a little baffled by Sunil Narine's spin and the pressure tells from just his third ball as the batter tries to hit him straight down the ground, but picks out Will Jacks at long-on.

    187 looks a long, long way away now.

  2. How's stat?!

    As per CricViz's captaincy grid, Sunil Narine is deemed one of the best options to bowl at Laurie Evans and Jos Buttler.

  3. Originals 23-1

    Target 187

    The Invincibles bowlers are doing a great job collectively in tying the Originals batters down - spinner Nathan Sowter the latest to rattle through his five balls for four runs.

  4. Not out

    Buttler

    Manchester Originals fans everywhere breathe a sigh of relief.

    Buttler's dive saves him.

  5. Umpire review

    Oh, this could be disastrous for Manchester.

    Has Jos Buttler been run out? Nathan Sowter, who takes the stumps at the bowler's end, likes it.

  6. Originals 19-1

    Target 187

    Buttler

    A scratchy powerplay for the Originals, who are going to have to get a move on if they want to get close to 187.

    But if anyone can, it's Jos Buttler...

    Gus Atkinson will be on England's watchlist for sure, he may get his chance.

  8. WICKET

    Salt c Sowter b Atkinson 2 (Originals 15-1)

    Gus Atkinson gets the breakthrough!

    His previous two balls were clocked at 92 and 93mph, but expertly delivers his slower ball at 70mph to draw the false shot from Phil Salt.

    The ball lobs up in the air for Nathan Sowter to take the catch and Salt departs for a scratchy two from 11 balls.

  9. Originals 13-0

    Target 187

    Brilliant from Spencer Johnson.

    He's bowled 10 balls for just one run on his Hundred debut. And to Phil Salt and Jos Buttler, that's pretty good.

    That's one of Jos Buttler's favourite shots, he's so good at playing at. Atkinson is bowling at 85/90mph and Buttler gets every piece of that.

  11. Originals 12-0

    Target 187

    Oh, Jos.

    He's faced just six balls but has no hesitation in bringing out the ramp shot, scooping it over the keeper for the first six of the innings.

    Class.

    I would be tempted to give Johnson another five. Great bowling on his debut. That will have settled his nerves a little bit.

  13. Originals 1-0

    Target 187

    Spencer Johnson starts nicely, with no runs coming from the bat and just a leg bye.

    He's also got immaculate hair. Just in case you were interested.

  14. Post update

    Here comes the destructive Originals opening partnership of Buttler and Salt.

    Australian quick Spencer Johnson has the ball.

  15. Post update

    Jamie Overton has done very well out of that 186, going for just 21 from his 20 balls.

    Although Jason Roy had already done a fair bit of damage by the time he'd gone.

  16. Post update

    Thanks, Matt.

    It's a big total but Manchester Originals have got some pretty handy batters in their line-up.

    Jos Buttler, Phil Salt, Laurie Evans... this could be fun.

  17. Post update

    Right. This should be a good chase.

    Ffion Wynne will take you through it...

  18. 'Nice to finally make an impact'

    Oval Invincibles batter Heinrich Klaasen on BBC Two: "I felt a bit of pressure after not performing in the first two games, so that was nice to finally make an impact - hopefully it's enough to get us over the line.

    "Myself and Jason [Roy] were looking at about 180. The wicket is a bit two paced, some steep bounce out there and the slower balls are gripping too which makes it quite tricky but I'm very happy with the total we've got.

    "I just tried to keep the momentum going. I play best when I keep still, play the basics and not move around too much."

    Heinrich Klaasen's 23-ball fifty was the fastest half-century by an Invincibles player in The Hundred...

    The Invincibles got off to a fantastic start, they will be pretty happy with that I think. Will Jacks got off to a flier, Jason Roy played well, Klaasen was class as well. 186 is not a bad score.
