That is annoying for Cordelia Griffith.
She had just started to motor and just got a partnership going with Grace Harris.
Cordelia had to stay there for a while, but one shot too many in that set of five for me.
Griffith c Jones b Graham 20 (Spirit 53-3)
Just when you thought Cordelia Griffith was motoring here, Rockets get her wicket.
The Spirit batter sends Heather Graham to the boundary twice in a row and then tries to go after her again only to miscue her shot.
In the end, it's an easy catch for Emma Jones.

With only three on the off-side, there is no room for error from Kirstie Gordon.
Every time you drag your length back it is a freebie and Cordelia Griffith was on to it so quickly.
London Spirit need some boundaries now and these two have got to get on with it. Griffith, in my opinion, has got to be the busy one!
105 runs needed
Cordelia Griffith soldiers on for Spirit.
She does well to find a gap in the ring to send Kirstie Gordon to the boundary, as the hosts add seven more to their score in Kirstie Gordon's set.

A target of 150 or more has been chased down just four times in the women's Hundred. The chasing team at the end of the powerplay have had an average score of 36-1 in those chases. Spirit were 26-1 at the end of their powerplay today.
112 runs needed
Not the greatest of starts from Spirit as they look to chase down a very good total to keep their perfect record in The Hundred.

Georgia Redmayne has tried to kick her innings on, but she has not had a good competition, so far.
This is her fourth game and she has not scored many runs at all.
It is same old, same old for Georgia Redmayne.

This time, it is Georgia Redmayne who walks back after chipping a shot into the hands of Cassidy McCarthy at long-on.
Captain Ash Gardner strikes for Rockets.

A proper shot. A bit of a shimmy too - Cordelia Griffit is dangerous!
116 runs needed

And Cordelia Griffith threads the Rockets bowler's third delivery through extra cover for her first boundary.
Eights runs in total coming from King's set.

Since the start of last season, Rockets have taken 21 catches and dropped 16. Their catching efficiency of 57% is the lowest for any team in the comp.
124 runs needed
Cordelia Griffith is the new batter in for Spirit.
She has the chance to get off the mark straightaway but fails to dispatch a shorter final delivery of the set from Cassidy McCarthy.

I thought Kira Chathli gave herself too much room. It was dead bottom of the bat where Chathli edged it.
Her execution was a little bit off.
Chathli c Wraith b McCarthy 19 (Spirit 26-1)
Image source, Getty ImagesKira Chathli has to go this time!
The Spirit opener goes after a wide delivery from Cassidy McCarthy but only manages an edge off the bottom of her bat.
Wicket-keeper Nat Wraith completes a routine catch and Rockets have the breakthrough.
130 runs needed
Only three runs from Alexa Stonehouse's latest set.
But she will feel hard done-by after that drop from Alana King.
Steven Finn
Former England fast bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
It feels like the Trent Rockets need to take every opportunity that comes their way against a team which has great momentum.
Carlos Brathwaite
Former West Indies all-rounder on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
That was too easy. Too much time for Alana King to take the catch.
130 runs needed
Image source, Getty ImagesAlexa Stonehouse will be livid by this.
Kira Chathli goes for a slog sweep and it is up in the air and Alana King has plenty of time to station herself to complete the catch at deep square.
But she has somehow manged to drop it!

That is the earliest introduction of a spinner in a match for the Trent Rockets this season. Rockets are yet to take a wicket in the powerplay this season.
133 runs needed

She has been dismissed for 11 in both of her The Hundred outings so far.
