    Spirit 36-2

    Adil Rashid is brought on, and ends up with his hands on his hips as he's pumped into the stands by a kneeling Luis Reece.

    Mujeeb Ur Rahman is wearing a pair of shoes that are almost audible. They are outrageous.

    They are orange and yellow.

    126 runs needed

    That was a welcome little flurry of runs for London Spirit.

    Eoin Morgan just needs to bat and bat and bat and bat. He needs to face as many balls as possible.

    Eoin Morgan is starting to find a little bit of rhythm.

  6. Spirit 28-2

    Four!

    Back-to-back boundaries for Eoin Morgan as he cuts Brydon Carse to the rope.

  7. 6 runs

    Spirit 24-2

    Hello!

    Eoin Morgan swivels and pulls the ball into the crowd to raise the spirits of the Lord's crowd. A spectator tries to catch it by leaning over the fence, misses, and then falls flat on his backside. He gets a telling off from a steward as well to add insult to injury.

    Northern Superchargers have some very good spinners still to come so it won't be easy. London Spirit are going to have to make the most of facing the pace bowlers.

  9. Spirit 18-2

    138 runs needed

    Brydon Carse is on and has a big lbw shout against Luis Reece first up. No dice, and Northern Superchargers decide not to review.

  11. Spirit 17-2

    139 runs needed

    There's a little lad in the crowd with a homemade "Go Eoin Morgan!" sign.

    Morgan clubs the ball towards Ben Raine, who pulls out a smart bit of fielding to stop the Spirit captain nabbing a single.

    I don't quite see where these runs are coming from at the moment... oh... that will help.

  13. Spirit 15-2

    141 runs needed

    Four! A rare sight!

    Eoin Morgan gives himself some room and hoicks Matty Potts down the ground for a very welcome boundary.

    Ah, I was looking forward to him bowling 20 of the 25, but never mind. He's done his job.

  15. David Willey walks to the end of his mark... and takes his cap back.

    He's keeping his last five balls up his sleeve for now.

    I think he might.

    David Willey is getting a little bit of swing and shape - it is great to see. That's what you want to see from a left armer.

    Is he going to bowl 20 of the first 25?

  18. Spirit 11-2

    145 runs needed

    David Willey is back on for another set of five and sends a delivery whipping past Eoin Morgan's outside edge.

    The England captain isn't having much fun out there. He manages to work his way off the mark with the gentlest of tickles off the hip.

  19. Spirit 7-2

    149 runs needed

    London Spirit are going nowhere fast.

  20. Spirit 7-2

    149 runs needed

    Matty Potts has come on for Northern Superchargers.

    Over to you, Eoin.
