Scorer: @Thilak_Rama | Commentator: Rvel Z

Adam Zampa, Match Hero: They put us under the pump in the powerplay early but, yeah again, good purchase in the surface, boys dragged back pretty well through the middle. We've been playing really good cricket throughout. Today we knew how important was to get the win, obviously finishing first and hopefully going straight to Lords, with potentially making it tough to overtake us, but really important next game to make it a certainty...beautiful day in London, good crowd, boys really enjoyed.

That was absolutely emphatic from the table-toppers; an utterly dominant win before the playoffs. It was an excellent bowling performance followed by a brilliant chase. They're the team to beat and seem to have all bases covered. Invincibles have confirmed a top-three finish and are looking favorites to secure the automatic final berth. That's it from the first game of the Men's Hundred. Join us for the coverage of the upcoming second game. For Thilak Rama, I'm Rvel Zahid. Goodnight

Lawrence to Cox, SIX, Flogs him for a six and they couldn't have finished it any better; this has to be one of the most clinical run-chase of The Hundred; not ruffled at all and waltz their way to a comprehensive victory. Tossed up on middle, shimmies a touch on the leg side and smears Lawrence for half-a-dozen runs over long-on to seal the game in style

Lawrence to Cox, FOUR, Kneels and tries to slog-sweep out of the park, everything they touch turns into gold, top-edge flies over keeper's head and the top spin carries away to the rope, two fielders run back but it was destined to reach the rope

Lawrence to Cox, no run, Makes room and plays a cross-bat shot to extra cover, brilliant stop in the ring

Saifi: "Except for India's IPL and Pakistan's PSL, all other leagues are still going according to early 2000s fashioned batting. Well being a Test cricket fan, I'm all up for this sort of cricket where you come across real batting talent, or else even Narine smashes bowlers"

Critchley to Malan, FOUR, One majestic shot after another; this whole chase is going to be in the highlights. Lunges forward and plays a gorgeous drive past cover for a four; whistles away to the rope; you can watch that shot on repeat and not get bored

Critchley to Malan, FOUR, Disdains it past deep midwicket for a one-bounce four, right on top of it and nails the slog sweep to perfection; beats the fielder's desperate lunge
