They twice had leads pegged back, were often sloppy in defence, and were on the ropes towards the end.

Having chosen to bat first, Superchargers found themselves pegged back by a wicket every time they seemed to be building momentum.

“Growing up, I actually played the really nerdy, awkward character. I was never pegged as the dark one,” Ortega explains.
