The Hundred 2025: Zak Crawley and Harry Brook star as Northern Superchargers beat Welsh Fire by eight wickets

England duo Zak Crawley and Harry Brook fired the Northern Superchargers to an eight-wicket win against Welsh Fire at Headingley.

Crawley whacked an unbeaten 67 off 38 balls and Brook was 25 not out off 15 deliveries as the Superchargers chased down their target of 144 with ease.

Jonny Bairstow's 42 and 29 from Australia's Steve Smith had seen the Fire post 143-9 off their allotted 100 balls, with Imad Wasim, Matthew Potts and Adil Rashid taking two wickets apiece.

That was never going to be enough with Crawley in this mood, though, as he shared an opening stand of 91 with Dawid Malan (41).

He hit five fours and four sixes in his breathless innings, with Brook joining him at the crease to get his team over the line, hitting two maximums and a four as the Superchargers won with 11 balls to spare.
