So that's all from this game. We'll be back tomorrow for the weekend double header. Join us then, bye for now!!
Nicholas Pooran | Hero of the Match: That timeout is really important. As a batter, when you’re going you want to keep going. We wanted to break that momentum and focus on our execution. He (Brook) is brilliant as a captain, nice to see him get going from the get go. For me it's about being consistent with my mindset. In the past I've been in similar situations and got out. They bowled well with the new ball. Spencer bowled well. It got better as the innings progressed, so I wanted to construct a partnership. Getting back to back wins in a format like this is important. Coming outside our home, coming to the defending champions and getting the job done feels great.
21:24 Local Time, 20:24 GMT, 01:54 IST: A formidable win for the visitors as the Oval Invincible batters weren't in the chase for large portions of this game. Dawid Malan struggled with the new ball, and never really got going today. His partner Will Jacks fell to Jordan Clark as the powerplay went the way of the Superchargers. Then the spinners got into the competition as Rashid and Santner combined to claim three wickets amongst them, as none of the Invincibles top five could cross 20. The hosts were in for a drubbing at 85/7, but Donovan Ferreira had other plans. He got some quick runs off Rashid, and was looking set to pull off a miracle. However, he was dismissed for 49 and then the game fizzled out from there. A crucial win for the Northern Superchargers.
