Harry Brook cracks fastest Hundred century for Northern Superchargers but Welsh Fire claim eight-wicket win to keep alive their hopes of making Saturdays eliminator; watch the remainder of the competition live on Sky Sports dedicated channel

He produced an audacious ramp over third for six from a searing Lockie Ferguson bouncer and hit Roelef van der Merwe down the ground for another thumping maximum.

But Brook marched on undeterred, reaching 50 from 24 balls, and hit the accelerator by smashing 19 from Luke Wells' five-ball set. With 10 balls of the innings remaining Brook was on 76 but he surged to his century with two more sixes and four fours as 30 came from those final 10 deliveries.The right-hander hit two sixes from Reece Topley's second set, before being given a life as Topley and Matthew Potts left a high catch to each other.

The introduction of Rashid applied the brakes - especially to Bairstow who had just eight from his first 18 balls.
