Morgan run out (Jordan) 5 (Spirit 81-3)
Eoin Morgan of all people should know you don't take on Chris Jordan in the field.
Morgan taps and goes. Jordan picks it up cleanly at mid-off and release his throw in mid-air. Only one stump to aim at but he nails it! Sublime fielding.
Spirit starting to wobble somewhat here, their best batter back in the hutch.

Tymal Mills to Eoin Morgan, a sub-narrative here of Mills trying to impress the England skipper with the T20 World Cup this year.
Oh! Mills hasn't got him but Morgan looks to be gone here.
Chris Jordan throws down the stumps as Morgan puts in a despairing dive.

Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports ExtraThis has been an effective, economical spell of bowling by Lintott.

Need 67 runs to win
More tidy work from Lintott, who ends up with just 11 runs conceded from 10 balls.
Spirit can afford that at this stage though.

There was nothing secret about Adam Rossington's intentions this evening - hit the ball hard and into the short leg-side boundary.
Spirit 75-2published at 65 balls
Target 146
Oh Colin.
De Grandhomme kneels into the long barrier position but somehow manages to let the ball through his legs.
That's a decent first five from left-arm wrist spinner Jake Lintott though, conceding just seven runs.
So fine he's going to get five more.

Stumps too heavy? Mohammad Amir would say so...
Spirit 68-2published at 71 balls left
Eek.
Eoin Morgan chips the hat-trick ball loosely into the off side but it drops safe.
Fine work by George Garton, he's got his team right back into this, though London Spirit are still well ahead of the required rate.

Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports ExtraThat's a fine delivery, which leaped off the surface. How many times in this tournament have we seen one wicket bring two?

Denly c De Kock b Garton 0 (Spirit 68-2)
A golden duck for Joe Denly!
George Garton is on a hat-trick!
A peach of delivery from the left-arm fast bowler, over the wicket and angled across Denly to take the edge through to Quinton de Kock.
