4.55pm: We thought it might be a tricky chase; we thought wrong. London Spirit have gunned down a middling target as if they were batting on a runway, led by Adam Rossington's 15-ball half-century and some trademark innovation from Glenn Maxwell. That is four wins from four for Spirit, who are as good in this year's Hundred as they were bad last year. Third defeat in a row for Superchargers, who won the toss but struggled thereafter. Anyway, in the words of Jay-Z, on to the next one: Oval Invincibles hosting Southern Brave in the evening fixture dahn sarf... Bye!
Time for a word with the Match Hero, Adam Rossington: "I thought the bowlers did a fabulous job, kept them to 15 below par. Wanted to get ahead of the rate early, and it was my day today. Just keep looking to hit the sightscreen as hard as possible. [DBD] Nice partnership, he got me back on strike and found his boundaries as well. [Maxwell off?] We've got some lads to come in off the bench, we'll miss Maxi but good players to come in. [Difference to 2021?] Another year on in the comp, few different faces but playing a positive brand. Bowlers have been fabulous, batters have chipped in, nice to get a performance."
"Why is a 10 ball set referred to as an Ayrton?" Ayrton Senna = tenner. Come on, Darshan
