  1. WICKET

    Dean b Johnson 16 (Spirit 112-7)

    Bowled her! Sammy-Jo Johnson outfoxes Charlie Dean with a well disguised slower ball, Dean far too early on the shot.

  2. Spirit 110-6

    There's a fella sat in his seat on a crane which is overlooking the Lord's ground and watching on.

    I imagine he's eating a sarnie, he looks like a BLT kind of guy.

    He's treated to a lovely off drive from Charlie Dean for four.

    Stranger things have happened but the Spirit are right up against it now. These next 10 balls there needs to be fours and sixes. There can't be dot balls. The Spirit need at least 27 from this 10 to be in it.

  4. Spirit 105-6

    Need 47 from 20 balls

    Encouraging stats for Spirit, but Gibson can only manage four singles from her first four deliveries.

    Higham, meanwhile, has been the star of the shot with the ball, she's bowled 15 deliveries, conceded 12 runs and taken two wickets. Superb.

  5. How's stat?!

    Danielle Gibson has hit a boundary once every 2.1 balls faced so far in The Hundred, the best rate of any player to face 15+ balls.

    Higham, after dropping Heather Knight earlier, picks up the wicket. She has bowled really well. Creating pressure. The balls tower has been coming down and the runs needed has been staying where it is.

    25 balls to go

  9. WICKET

    Knight c Glenn b Higham 31 (Spirit 100-6)

    Game over?

    Heather Knight skies it and Sarah Glenn takes a simple catch at extra cover.

  10. Spirit 95-5

    London Spirit need 57 from 30. They also need boundaries.

    Their worm just can't keep up with Rockets'.

    This is what you want to see from the incoming batters. Charlie Dean comes in and has a bit of fun. It is a good cricket shot and a smart cricket shot.

  12. Spirit 94-5

    Cheeky! Charlie Dean scoops Heather Graham for four.

  13. New batter: Charlie Dean

    A good bit of fielding, especially for someone fielding on the edge. It is never easy running in to take a catch. She judged the distance of it perfectly. It is a big wicket.

  15. WICKET

    Tryon c Windsor b Graham 6 (Spirit 88-5)

    Spirit just keep losing wickets!

    Chloe Tryon top edges it to the square-leg boundary, Emily Windsor takes a smart catch as she runs in from the deep.

    We were talking about how the release shot had to come. A beautiful cricket shot, from the moment it left the bat it was beating those fielders. In any format that is the classical shot any batter wants to hit.

  17. Spirit 84-4

    Beautiful shot from Tryon, middled straight down the ground for four.

  18. Spirit 83-4

    Just the singles here for Spirit off Nat Sciver. Boundaries are needed.

  19. Spirit 79-4

    Need 73 from 40

    Another single to Knight. She will need to play a real captain's knock here.

    It looked like one of those ones where you come sliding in and your knee digs in the ground.
