7.37pm: What a fightback. TKC was on 57 off 30 balls when the first wicket fell on the 54th ball and faced only 14 of the last 47 in all. Masterclass from Milne at the death but the spinners - Tahir, Livingstone and Howell (yes, he's a fast spinner) - were superb through the middle of the innings. Brown and Pennington both took some serious tap but 143 looks like it's a decent way below par to me on a good track - though Superchargers' three spinners might have something to say about that. Alan will talk you through the chase.
Benny Howell is speaking to Sky: "It was looking pretty bleak at the start. It's a Powerplay wicket. They've got a few spinners but we just have to go hard like we have in the whole tournament. We've going to play positive. It's pleasing. For the team to do well and me to contribute is great. For me to show my skills at this level is fantastic." -- World Cup bolter?
Pranshu: "First 25 balls 65 runs, next 75 balls 78 runs, what a turnaround. Milne should be in the NZ starting XI for the world cup surely" -- Only a standby for their squad, which I find bizarre.
DaWolf: "Well under par. They murdered the bowling of Pennington and Brown, but the other 80 balls have gone at barely more than a run a ball. Superchargers will have to hope their spinners can have as much success. What a change from the first wicket falling when 180 was looking well within reach."
Here's a nugget for you from CricViz's Freddie Wilde. Balls slower than 75mph (121kph) in that innings went at 1.2 runs per ball; balls faster than 75mph went at 2.2 runs per ball. Spin to win?

Praman Nepal: "My lord ! Who would have thought this at 30 balls mark. Remarkable turnaround ! "
TKC will face the final ball. Looked on course for a hundred at one stage!
