    That was bizarre. Buttler gave the review sign and then the umpire gave it out.

    David Warner goes - and so, surely, do Spirit's chances.

    Josh Tongue fires a delivery across the visiting opener and Warner goes to help the ball on its way to the fine-leg ropes.

    He only gets a tickle on it though and Jos Buttler takes the catch down the leg side.

    Up goes the umpire's finger after a moment of contemplation.

  3. Spirit 126-2published at 15 balls left

    38 runs needed

    London Spirit need boundaries and plenty of them.

    They find two in this set from Lewis Gregory, with Ashton Turner slicing through backward point and David Warner hammering a drive down the ground for a one-bounce four.

    A great six from Ashton Turner taking down the tricky Noor Ahmad. The Australian loves facing left-arm wrist spin, with a career average of 49 and a strike-rate of 156 against it.

    Noor Ahmad is fit to continue - he was struck on his non-bowling hand - and Ashton Turner bids him farewell for the night by depositing his final ball over square with a slog sweep.

    That's Ahmad finished with figures of 0-28 from his 20 balls, six of those runs coming from his last delivery.

    57 runs needed

    Finger stinger!

    Ashton Turner lashes Noor Ahmad's ball back down the pitch and the Afghanistan spinner throws out his left hand.

    The ball clips the ends of his fingers, stopping a run but causing Ahmad to immediately call the physio on.

    London Spirit need to take a risk almost every single ball you would imagine.

    Warner's dot balls are ruining the flow of the team. You get the feeling he needs to hit out or get out.

    58 runs needed

    Ashton Turner joins his fellow Australian Warner at the crease and gets a single to square leg from his first delivery.

    David Warmer then smokes his 11th four through mid-off.

    Scott Currie didn't need much of an appeal. Very full and straight and he is doing the business for Manchester Originals.

    Even in the international game, it is so hard to come in as a new batter and do something from ball one.

    But Scott Currie has his revenge with the next ball!

    A full straight delivery and Jamie Smith is struck on the pad trying to play into the leg side.

    Up goes the umpire's finger and Smith doesn't bother reviewing.

    Bang, that's the way to bring up your team's hundred.

    Jamie Smith smashes Scott Currie down the ground for six, the ball curving away slightly as we view it from stump cam.

    Neil Virani: In England, we will never appreciate David Warner for how good a white-ball player he has been. Only Gayle and Rohit ahead of him as openers.

    Sonny Baker has bowled such a lovely length. David Warner has not been able to get him away at all and he looks very frustrated out there.

    Woops.

    Jamie Smith punches Sonny Baker's delivery to Phil Salt at cover and the Originals captain attempts a shy at the non-striker's end but manages to hurl the ball straight into the ground.

    Laughter all round.

    Baker has to bowl his last delivery three times after sending down a couple of wides, but he's still gone for just 10 runs from his three sets - his contribution a large part of why Spirit are almost out of this chase.

    Ouch!

    Jamie Smith punches Noor Ahmad's first delivery right into David Warner's midriff.

    That ball would have been destined for the boundary, but is just run for a single.

    Only four more runs from the rest of the set - up ticks that required run-rate...

    David Warner has passed fifty when chasing in T20s on 63 occasions. Coincidently, his side win 63% of the time when he passes fifty in a chase.

    A remarkable shot from Warner. He played it with both feet in the air, it was very unconventional.

  18. Spirit 83-1published at 40 balls left

    81 runs needed

    Jamie Smith comes in with plenty of runs needed - he gets one of them immediately with a single to mid-on.

    David Warner then charges Tongue, who sends down a bouncer, and the opener manages to twist on his way down the pitch and lift the ball over point for four.

    Handy.

    That is not necessarily a bad thing for London Spirit. Williamson was struggling out there in the middle and not timing the ball.

    Spirit have got to get a move on now.

    Finally the partnership is broken!

    It's Kane Williamson who goes, lifting a pull shot off Josh Tongue into the hands of compatriot Mark Chapman on the backward square ropes.

    He departs for 19 off 20 - not his day today.
