no drop this time! Length ball slapped high toward Kohler-Cadmore at mid-off, he ranges 10 yards to his left to take the catch in stride at rib height. A thorough demolition from Superchargers is complete!
N S-Chargers vs Originals, 26th Match at Leeds, Men's 100, Aug 12 2021 - Match Result
9.41 pm In a Hundred version of the Roses rivalry, the White Rose Superchargers jolt the Originals. And how! The first ever 200 score of The Hundred by the hosts and the visitors finish 69 runs behind. They were never in the chase at any stage. Superchargers move up to fourth after the win.
Match Hero is John Simpson: "It's definitely been a special one, the last six to seven weeks for sure. We knew it was going to be a massive match in front of a packed house at Headingley and hopefully it'll stand us in good stead for Tuesday. It was one of those things to get used to the wicket, take four or five balls, and then it came off. It's been great [keeping to Adil Rashid]. Playing with him has been fantastic and Mujeeb is world class. They've got fantastic variations. Every once in a while they'll bamboozle me, but they keep the pressure on."
That's it from us tonight. Come back tomorrow for more Hundred doubleheader action. Take care!
dropped! First blemish on the night for Superchargers. Slower bouncer pulled to deep midwicket, Potts charges in and flings himself forward for the chance at knee height but shells it.
slower ball on a good length on fifth stump, blunts this to point.
Last man Parkinson is in.
length ball on fifth stump, goes for another booming heave down the ground but slices a thick edge that balloons gently to Mujeeb on the ring at short third man, taken at chest height.
length ball on sixth stump, backs away again and misses a flail.
full and wide on seventh stump, Ferguson backs away from leg again for a leg side heave and takes himself out of range to connect on this ball.
length ball on leg stump, Ferguson backs away from leg to create room and slams this flat over midwicket for another six.
shot of the day! Lone bright spot for the Originals in this innings. Back of a length on fourth stump, uppercuts this over point into the third row.
bouncer over leg stump, left alone swaying away.
Willey to bowl the penultimate set of five.
length ball on middle, backs away to heave this to wide long-on, slapped back in for a pair.
wide yorker again, beaten gain on a drive.
length ball on fourth stump, Finn backs away from leg and hammers a slog past Potts and skids away past mid-off to the rope.
wide yorker off the pitch, given as a wide instead of a no ball.

short on the stumps, backs away to heave and is beaten.
Mike: "Worst Performance in Hundred history... embarrassing ". Definitely not a night that any Originals players will be sharing on their Instagram Stories...
length ball on the pads, misses a leg side heave, ball caroms to point for an extra. Given as a run apparently off an inside edge.
length ball on fifth stump, swats this past the non-striker to long-off for one.
short on the stumps yet again at 84 mph, pulls firmly through midwicket and beats the sweeper diving to the rope.
another length ball, another skied pull, but this time the top edge swirls to Rashid on the ring at short third man. Simple catch at waist height waiting for the ball to be pulled back to earth by the exceptionally strong, should I say Supercharged, Leeds gravitational force.
length ball on the stumps, skies a pull that swirls into no man's land between deep fine leg charging in and the keeper Simpson running out. They're not gonna chance a dive and a possible collision at this stage of the game.
Willey back into the attack.
