    Just over 80% of Paul Walter's runs in this campaign have been scored on the leg side. This is by far the highest proportion of any batter in the competition.

    Jos Buttler would've felt good there, he hit a couple of nice shots.

    But he's on his way and that's a huge wicket.

    The Manchester Super Giants captain has to depart.

    Jos Buttler chases a wide delivery but can only get thick outside edge and Brydon Carse completes the catch at backward point.

    A huge breakthrough for Matthew Potts and Sunrisers Leeds.

    Jos Buttler fancies Matthew Potts here and it's the skiddy trajectory of the balls.

    Buttler's able to trust that it'll skid on to the face of his bat.

    Potts will be under pressure here he know Buttler is coming for him.

  7. 6 runs

    Super Giants 57-1

    Matthew Potts returns to the attack after an expensive opening set but the result is familiar.

    Jos Buttler picks up the slower ball and sends it soaring for a six.

  8. Super Giants 51-1

    Manchester Super Giants have now moved past the 50 mark, recovering well from the early loss of Tim Seifert.

  9. 6 runs

    Super Giants 49-1

    And now it's the turn of Jos Buttler, who picks the midwicket region to plant his maximum.

    An expensive five there. Something had to give and unfortunately for him it was Matthew Potts who was targeted.

    Paul Walter has looked far from comfortable so far, but he has absolutely launched Matthew Potts over mid-on for the first six of this match here.

    The pacer's opening set has gone for 15 runs.

  16. Super Giants 17-1

    Not the start Matthew Potts would have wanted with the ball.

    Jos Buttler hits him for back-to-back boundaries - first through mid-on and then past point to ease some pressure off Manchester Super Giants.

    That yorker Carse bowled to Buttler first up had it all. It was the quickest delivery of his set, in swinging and on the stumps. Welcome to the crease Jos.
