    6.1 Strikes first ball! Leggie to the right-hander, just enough bite and turn to beat an advancing Crawley, Clarke does the rest 67/1
    16.1 Gets Malan! Pace off, 72mph, into the surface. Malan ramps but doesn't have the pace to work with and finds Southee at short third 153/3
    14.3 Skied in the air... into the hands of Ben Duckett in at long on Pepper charged again, Southee went short and the attempt to lassoo that over to the leg side was found wanting due to a lack of pace on the ball in the first place 138/2

    16.2 Big shout for LBW... given! Reviewed... was there an inside edge? There was not... and it was taking leg stump! 153/4
    19.2 Taken at deep point! Some strike from Lawrence, getting a wide delivery off a length and stunning it flat... but plucked out of the air by Smeed, who was right on the sponge 188/5

    0.3 Smeed holes out second ball! Duffy bowls on a hard length, Smeed tries to muscle it over mid-on... it's not a clean hit and Potts takes a fantastic catch running back! Superbly judged and Superchargers get the breakthrough 2/1
    1.5 Pinned on the knee roll, given! Duckett has reviewed but this looks pretty adjacent. Only needs to be clipping leg stump... And clipping it is! The Phoenix opener isn't happy but has to trudge from the field 13/2
    3.5 goes again, cross-batted heave... top-edged! This one doesn't have the legs and Duffy can settle under it at mid-on. Second for Potts, and Phoenix are already looked a little singed around the edges 27/3
    16.3 flatter and spanked straight to long-on! Livingstone had the Manics' "Everything Must Go" ringing in his ears but couldn't get the power on this one, and Santner takes it in supremely relaxed fashion on the rope 137/5
    12.2 brilliant, Rashid takes the skyer! Bethell goes for the slog-sweep again but is done by googly bouncing and spinning away. It still needs catching, though, and Rashid puts in the yards, sprinting back from the bowler's end to take it with a full-length dive! Breaks the stand for Superchargers 107/4
    17.1 flashed to cover, Brook clings on! Low full toss and Kimber struck it firmly, only for it to cross paths with the Superchargers captain in inspired mood. Dives full length to his right and scoops it low above the turf, to gurgles of approval around Headingley 138/6
    17.4 slogged down the throat of deep point! Superchargers tying a bow on this one. Short ball and he has a hack but picks out Duffy a few yards in from the rope 142/7
    18.3 this time they can cheer for real! Pace off and Milne hoicks across the line, gets a big top edge that sails towards short fine leg, where Pepper jogs across to complete the dismissal 150/8
    19.4 full, straight and hit on the back leg - given! Why is Southee reviewing??? This has hit him on the shin in front of middle. He's actually hanging around for ball-tracking... Now he starts to go. Splatting leg stump! One to come 157/10
