  1. Time to get going.

    Kira Chathli, off the back of 69 against Birmingham Phoenix on Sunday, will face Grace Ballinger's first ball.

    Australian Georgia Redmayne is at the other end.

  2. London Spirit go into today's game in second with four wins from five - they have 16 points compared to leaders Southern Brave's 24, who are unbeaten having played a game more.

    Northern Superchargers are fourth and a win would most likely see them move up one position into the play-off positions.

  5. Afternoon!

    It's a four-game Hundred day today, with Southern Brave at Welsh Fire and London Spirit welcoming Northern Superchargers.

    We'll be covering the women's match at Lord's right here, but fear not, we'll have updates from the men's game at Cardiff as well - both start at 15:00 BST.

    The women's match between Fire and Brave has already finished - unsurprisingly the latter, who sit top unbeaten, have triumphed over and eliminated the former, who are bottom without a win.

    The men's game between Spirit and Superchargers begins at 18:30.
