  1. Spirit or bust

    London Spirit need to pull off something quite spectacular to make the eliminators in The Hundred women's tournament.

    They are in seventh place in the standings on six points and a win would put them level with Birmingham Phoenix with eight, but Spirit have an inferior run-rate.

    To overhaul that Spirit would therefore need to win by 76 runs batting first, or chase down Welsh Fire's total with a whopping 58 balls to spare. That all assumes we get the full game in with the weather. Is that clear?

  2. Toss - Spirit bowl first

    London Spirit captain Heather Knight has won the toss and chosen to bowl first at Sophia Gardens.

  3. Welcome

    After 31 matches we are down to the final day of the group stage of The Hundred as Welsh Fire host London Spirit at Sophia Gardens.

    Welsh Fire are playing for pride, having already collected the wooden spoon, but London Spirit are hoping to pull off something quite remarkable.

    We'll have every wicket, run and key moment from Cardiff in this live text commentary so stick around.
