Jos Buttler and Heinrich Klaasen scored half-centuries as the Manchester Originals cruised to a 57-run victory over the Northern Superchargers in the men's Hundred.
The Originals were restricted in the early stages as Phil Salt and Ben McKinney both fell cheaply, but Buttler and Rachin Ravindra put on 62 from 35 deliveries before Matthew Potts dismissed Ravindra for 31.
Buttler continued to shine alongside Klaasen as the pair put on an unbeaten 69 as they finished not out on 64 and 50 respectively.
The Superchargers' chase of 172 got off to a poor start when Josh Tongue struck twice in eight balls to dismiss Zak Crawley and Michael Pepper.
They were handed a further blow when Harry Brook was caught by Matty Hurst off Ravindra for just 11.
David Miller offered some resistance with a hard-fought 38 before being bowled by Tongue, who took three wickets alongside Sonny Baker - who finished the match with a hat-trick.
Birmingham's men's team fared better as they surpassed their 127 target to see off London Spirit with 35 balls to spare.
Captain Liam Livingstone once again did most of the damage with an unbeaten 45 - including a huge six to win it - as Phoenix eased to their second straight win.
Spirit lost Jamie Smith to a third ball duck and fellow opener David Warner departed for just nine before captain Kane Williamson steadied the ship with 33 to help them chisel a total of 126-6.
But despite also losing both openers cheaply - Will Smeed to a duck, and Ben Duckett for 11 - Joe Clarke set the course with 54 and was joined by Livingstone who sealed their seven-wicket win.
Livingstone, who was named the Meerkat Match Hero, said: "We needed a win, but we had some confidence coming in to this one having played really well last game here at Edgbaston. The crowd are amazing, they get behind us every time we go out and play, so it's always nice to put on a show for them.
"Our seam bowlers were phenomenal. I don't think they missed a single yorker at the end, and then we managed to see it home with the bat. Sometimes it can be quite difficult going in after an early wicket and getting the tempo right, but Joe [Clarke] was brilliant today.
"We brought him in through The Draft to do that role, to take bowlers on at No 3 and give us some momentum, so he's been fantastic, and he broke the chase for us.
"Back-to-back wins now. We know we're up against it, all we can do is win our remaining games and see where we are."
