7.40pm The Trent Rockets much happier at the break, but remember it's a tired surface, so it won't be easy to chase if they lose a few wickets. Brook's 30-ball 38 and Simpson's 33-ball 42 was so crucial after the top order and lower order crumbled on either side of their partnership. Matthew Carter was brilliant, taking 2 for 17 in 20 balls. de Lange 3 for 22, Rashid 3 for 31, and the Rockets will hope that the 5 runs off wides and 6 off no-balls don't come back to bite them. We'll be back with the chase very shortly, with Alan over here.

Alan Hardy: "Simpson got a run off 95 but Rashid facing 96? How does this Hundred thingy work?" -- Change of ends happen every 10 balls in this format. The ball-by-ball section on ESPNcricinfo will say "change of ends" whenever it does change.

de Lange to Rashid, 1 run, OUT, yorker on off, and just about outside. Guided to deep point, but they want to come for the second run, and that is not a good idea! Flat throw, Rashid struggling, and Superchargers were all out for 132 with on ball to go.

AU Rashid run out 10 (13m 6b 1x4 0x6) SR: 166.66

de Lange to Rashid, FOUR, shotttttt! Adil Rashid does the helicopter. Full, nearly in the blockhole. But he gets his front foot out of the way, and the use of his wrists gets the flick to deep midwicket for four

The third free hit off him.

de Lange to Parkinson, (no ball) 1 run, overpitched on middle. Drives, mistimed to point for one. But overstepped so that's two more extra runs

Parkinson at No. 11. Can de Lange follow his five-for with a four-for? Superchargers would love to play out all the balls though.

de Lange to Simpson, OUT, that's high in the air and taken at mid off. Full, on middle. Looks to slog it over cow corner, but it goes in the other direction instead

JA Simpson c Hales b de Lange 42 (45m 33b 6x4 0x6) SR: 127.27

de Lange to Rashid, 1 run, full on off, from around the stumps. Looks to hit it inside out after clearing the front leg. Finds mid off, but gets off strike

Last five balls coming up. de Lange. Expect yorkers or back of a length balls.

Gregory to Simpson, 1 run, full toss outside leg. But he backs away, and therefore gets a chance to flick this full toss off his toes to deep midwicket

Gregory to Rashid, 1 run, good length, on off. And flat-batted to long on for a single
