This is Jonny Bairstow's highest ever score in the Hundred. If they can pull this off it will be one he will remember for a long time. That six was 101 metres. My goodness.

OUT OF THE GROUND!
Jonny Bairstow drives Jamie Overton for a monstrous six.

If there's ever a batter that can go for two or three sixes in two or three balls, it's Jonny Bairstow
Need 25 runs to win
Six for Jonny Bairstow. He sees Jamie Overton's slower ball and punishes it. Scoop.
25 off 9.
Need 31 runs to win
Jonny Bairstow swings and misses at a slower ball from Richard Gleeson. However, his confusion doesn't last long. Next ball, he paddles the quick away for four.
Still, it's a valuable final set from Gleeson, only conceding seven runs.

One ball can change the set of five. Four excellent balls, just can't quite get it under the bat. Turns out to be a bit of a free hit for Jonny Bairstow. Full toss. He doesn't even bother with two hands, just does it with one.
Need 38 runs to win
Jonny Bairstow sends Liam Dawson on his way, hammering his final delivery of the match - a full toss - for six over long-on. I think he only had one hand on his bat when he hit that.
That set, costing 13 runs, has spoiled the spinner's figures (1-25) a little.

Jonny Bairstow is almost single-handedly keeping the Welsh Fire in this.
Fire 118-6
A half-century for Jonny Bairstow but only a small wave of celebration from the batter.
He gets there in streaky fashion - Luke Wood just touching the boundary rope as he slides to prevent a four - but it's been a fine innings. If only he hadn't be so starved of the strike earlier on.
Kieran Parmley
Cricviz analyst
A side has scored 61 runs or more off the final 25 balls 14 times previously in the men's Hundred - this is still very much on for the Fire.
Need 51 runs to win
The six aside, Richard Gleeson and London Spirit will be happy with that set. They restricted Welsh Fire to four singles from the other four deliveries.
51 needed off 20 balls. The required rate is above 2.5 runs per ball.

Luke Wood thought he might be in business there but the ball was just tantalisingly out of reach.
Need 54 runs to win
Chris Green goes after Richard Gleeson and the ball just evades the grasp of Luke Wood on the boundary. Six more.

I thought this game was dead and buried 15 minutes ago, but with Jonny Bairstow at the crease you just never know.
Need 61 runs to win
Chris Green has joined the party!
A scrambling David Warner denies him a boundary off the first ball of the set (he still picks up three) but no one can stop him off the penultimate ball, picking off Jamie Overton's short ball with glee.
100 up for Welsh Fire.

What a shot from Jonny Bairstow! The kids are up in the crowd loving this. Fire need a few more of these. A brilliant one-two. When you've got bat speed and power it goes miles.
Need 70 runs to win
Four more! Jonny Bairstow driving!
21 runs off set, including three consecutive boundaries.
Bairstow has 44 off 30, Fire need 70 off 30. They can't do this... can they?
Need 74 runs to win
And another! A huge pull into the stands from Jonny Bairstow!
Need 80 runs to win
The first six of the innings! Munched down the ground by Jonny Bairstow.

Punished. Straight down the ground. A bit too full from Wood. Welsh Fire need more of these.
