Thank you for your company everyone. In every corner of the world, there is a cricket game happening right now. India v Ire, NZ v UAE, Women's Hundred, the LPL final and the Royal London One Day Cup. Knock yourselves out, and of course, more men's Hundred action coming in an hour.
Calvin Harrison, Player of the Match: "Great to be back with the boys. Nice to get a pitch like that. (Replacing Usama Mir) Big shoes to fill. We are picking up good momentum. We had two important games - this one and the next one too. (Personal goal) Disappointed to miss out in the beginning, but to come back in and do what I've been doing, it is great. (Best figures in Hundred history) I didn't even realise. I thought it was my personal best but didn't know it was the whole Hundred."
Spinners were supposed to threaten according to predictions and that's what happened. It seems so long ago that Adil Rashid dominated with four wickets in the first innings, but such was Chris Harrison's whirlwind spell that Rashid's performance will go down as a footnote. Maybe even Buttler's will.
4.49pm Did Buttler's 75 set up the win? Or was it Harrison's five-for that was the reason for victory. Either way, Manchester Originals zoom up the points table, keeping them in contention for a qualifier spot. For Northern Superchargers, mmm, it looks gloomy.
