  2. Lydia Greenway
    Ex-England batter on BBC Two

    Brilliant from these two, they've absorbed the pressure from earlier on and kicked things on.

  3. Spirit 61-1

    Dane van Niekerk has brought herself back on for another set, but Spirit's Knight and Beaumont are well set and scoring off every ball.

  4. Isa Guha
    Former England bowler on BBC Two

    These two have done nicely. Spirit still have Deandra Dottin to come - she's a seriously dangerous player.

  5. Spirit 49-1

    Tammy Beaumont has been biding her time, and now she steps back to smash Alice Capsey through the off side for four.

    Spirit are getting into their stride now.

  6. Lydia Greenway
    Ex-England batter on BBC Two

    Heather Knight just plays spin bowling so well.

  7. Spirit 45-1

    And another! A classical sweep from Knight off Villiers is just too good and reaps another four.

  8. Spirit 39-1

    Now it is Maddie Villiers' turn to get the Heather Knight treatment as she shovels the ball away for a four in almost the same place as the last.

  9. Lydia Greenway
    Ex-England batter on BBC Two

    It was almost like it bounced on concrete as that ball kicked on.

  10. Spirit 35-1

    Heather Knight gets stuck into her opposite number's leg spin, lofting the ball away high into the leg side for another four.

  11. Spirit 28-1

    It's skipper v skipper as Dane van Niekerk comes on to bowl and sees Heather Knight reverse sweep her first delivery away.

  12. Olly Stone
    England bowler on BBC Two

    It's great to see the seam bowlers making it hard for the batters because bowling straight is difficult on this wicket.

  13. Spirit 25-1

    Marizanne Kapp is back on and although she keeps the pressure on, a couple of wides have added to the total, but Spirit are still struggling.

  14. Alex Hartley
    Manchester Originals bowler on BBC Two

    This is the exact start the Invincibles wanted. They've used their two world-class seamers brilliantly.

  15. Spirit 22-1

    Much better from Jo Gardner, who slides, picks up and throws to save a boundary in one flowing movement.

  16. Aatif Nawaz
    Commentator on BBC Two

    London Spirit will be grateful for that misfield. They'll be grateful for anything they can get right now.

  17. Spirit 16-1

    Heather Knight pulls Ismail towards the boundary and Jo Gardner makes a meal of of it. allowing the ball to dribble over the rope for just the second boundary oi the innings.

  18. Alex Hartley
    Manchester Originals bowler on BBC Two

    It was one which you'd expect a wicketkeeper to catch. She's made a bit of a meal of it.

    Dropped catch - Spirit 11-1

    Chance!

    Heather Knight edges Ismail and Invincibles keeper Sarah Bryce drops the chance diving away to her right. Should have taken that, and Ismail is not happy.

  20. Spirit 10-1

    Tash Farrant is on, but her first ball is stroked to the rope for the first boundary of the day by Tammy Beaumont.
