- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.1 slashed to slip! Wide outswinger, Short throws his hands at it with no foot movement and gets a thick outside edge which flies to Moeen at waist height as he bends his knees. Simple catch, Southee strikes with his first ball 4/14.1 cleans him up with a doom seed! Ben Stokes' first ball in the Hundred for three years is an absolute beauty which kisses the top of off. Perfect from Southee, nipping back in off the seam to beat Stokes on the inside edge. Superchargers in deep trouble! 19/33.3 nicks him off! Pooran has another huge swipe but is swinging like a rusty gate tonight, and gets a feather through to Smith. Wide outside off on a good length, Pooran had planted his front leg a foot outside leg stump looking to heave him over midwicket, and could only manage a thin top edge on it 15/29.3 nicks him off, Wood jumps and punches the air in celebration! The Phoenix seamers are all over the Superchargers! Length ball, angling across him. Brook felt as though he had to manufacture something, stepping outside leg stump and looking to flash away through the off side. But he was beaten by just a hint of seam movement, and flashed behind to Smith 36/412.2 hard length, tip-and-run into the leg side... stunning work from Duckett! Jonty Rhodes, eat your heart out! That is some of the best fielding you'll see. Runs around from short midwicket towards mid-on, picks up, throws back-handed, off-balance, at full stretch, flicking the ball into the stumps at the bowler's end - in mid-air - to find Hose comfortably short of his ground. Hose's misery comes to an end 45/513.4 Fullish and straight, completely loses his shape looking to go down the ground but skies a straightforward chance to extra cover! Robinson's cameo ends all too briefly, and Superchargers sink deeper into the swamp… 53/616.1 Kiwi gets Kiwi! Around the wicket, angling in, Santner shapes to work it through midwicket but didn't spot the offcutter and was cleaned up, leg stump! Southee has a word in Santner's ear as he trudges off, then grins from ear to ear as he celebrates with his team-mates 64/717.2 sliced straight to extra cover on the edge of the ring! Yorker, a hint of width outside off stump. Clark throws his hands at it, but can only drill it flat and hard at Moeen 71/819.1 gets down on one knee to slog-sweep... and picks out Bethell at deep backward square leg! Utter dominance from the Phoenix, who will need just 84 to win. Good take from Bethell, staring straight into the low sun 83/1018.4 slapped cross-batted, straight to mid-off! Width outside off, Rashid clears the front leg and crunches the back-of-the-hand slower ball... but it's in the air, and Southee takes a tumble to snaffle it 82/9Extras1 (b 1)TOTAL83 all out (19.1 Overs, RR: 4.32 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Matthew Short, 1.1 ov), 2-15 (Nicholas Pooran, 3.3 ov), 3-19 (Ben Stokes, 4.1 ov), 4-36 (Harry Brook, 9.3 ov), 5-45 (Adam Hose, 12.2 ov), 6-53 (Ollie Robinson, 13.4 ov), 7-64 (Mitchell Santner, 16.1 ov), 8-71 (Jordan Clark, 17.2 ov), 9-82 (Adil Rashid, 18.4 ov), 10-83 (Matthew Potts, 19.1 ov)
