    Former England all-rounder on BBC Two

    A great piece of bowling by Dan Worrall, he is highly skilled. It was very full but swung back.

  2. wicket

    WICKET

    Zaib b Worrall 2 (Fire 39-5)

    Another one bites the dust and it's a beauty from Dan Worrall.

    A swinging yorker goes under Saif Zaib's bat and clips the top of the stumps. Lovely bowling.

  3. Fire 37-4

    Target 164

    Jonny Bairstow has still only faced nine deliveries, scoring nine runs.

    Penny for his thoughts after watching the procession of wickets at the other end.

  4. How's stat?!

    Kieran Parmley
    Cricviz analyst

    This is the sixth time Welsh Fire have lost three wickets inside the powerplay in the men's Hundred, five of these six occasions have come at Cardiff.

  5. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Two

    Kohler-Cadmore looked to pull the ball and he is furious with himself. It went straight up the chimney and a simple catch by Keaton Jennings.

    Welsh Fire are in serious trouble now.

  6. wicket

    WICKET

    Kohler-Cadmore c Jennings b Overton 4 (Fire 34-4)

    Never mind.

    Keaton Jennings won't have many easier catches in his career. Tom Kohler-Cadmore has popped it straight up to him at mid-wicket.

    A tame dismissal. What are Welsh Fire doing? They've lost 3-9.

  7. Fire 34-3

    Target 164

    That will help. Tom Kohler-Cadmore picks up four off Jamie Overton's first delivery.

  8. Fire 30-3

    Target 164

    Luke Wood finishes the powerplay with a wicket maiden. It really has been all London Spirit for the opening 25 balls.

    Steve Smith, Luke Wells, and Tom Abell are back in the shed and the home side need 134 from 75 balls.

    The pressure is on Jonny Bairstow to produce a big innings for Fire.

  9. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Two

    That is not a good shot by Tom Abell. I know he wants to get on with it but he cannot believe he has picked the fielder out. A cheap dismissal for him.

    Bairstow and Kohler-Cadmore have got to still be there at 50 balls.

  10. wicket

    WICKET

    Abell c Turner b Wood 5 (Fire 30-3)

    Oh it's all going wrong for Welsh Fire.

    Tom Abell has picked out Ashton Turner at deep square leg and the hosts are three down inside the powerplay.

  11. Fire 30-2

    Target 164

    Captain Tom Abell starts his innings with an edge four. It's a rather unconvincing waft. Dan Worrall is causing all sorts of problems.

    I'd almost forgotten Jonny Bairstow was batting. He's only faced seven deliveries.

  12. Sir Alastair Cook
    Ex-England captain on BBC Two

    That is one of the worst ways to get out. Luke Wells tried to play his best poker face but he knew he was gone.

  13. wicket

    WICKET

    Wells c Smith b Worrall 12 (Fire 25-2)

    Yup, Luke Wells has edged through to Jamie Smith.

    He has to depart for 12 off six. It was a brief but eventful innings.

  14. Sir Alastair Cook
    Ex-England captain on BBC Two

    I did hear something, but it can only be his gloves.

  15. Aatif Nawaz
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Two

    Everybody is up in arms but the umpire is unmoved. Was there something on it?

  16. Spirit review

    Dan Worrall and Jamie Smith are convinced Luke Wells has been caught behind.

    They send it upstairs.

  17. Fire 25-1

    Target 164

    Boom. Luke Wells has come out swinging.

    He pulls Dan Worrall for four and follows it up with another, albeit streakier, pull. They all count.

    There was a wide in between the two shots for good measure.

  18. Fire 16-1

    Target 164

    Luke Wells pulls Richard Gleeson for four to get his innings under way but it's another great set for the bowling side.

    Four runs and a wicket from Gleeson's first five deliveries.

  19. Sir Alastair Cook
    Ex-England captain on BBC Two

    Well bowled by Richard Gleeson. Smith tried for the ramp but he cannot believe how that has been caught.

    He is furious.

  20. Aatif Nawaz
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Two

    Terrific catch. It was up in the air for an absolute age.
