Former IPL batter on BBC RadioThat is not a big total. Spirit are going to have to bowl brilliantly.
Invincibles have been outstanding with the ball and in the field. The job is half done but they are favourites.

BBC RadioThat's got to be up there with the most economical finishes we've had.
Oval Invincibles need 123 runs to winpublished at 100 balls
BreakingSpirit 122-7
A single to finish.
Incredible death bowling from the Invincibles with the last 20 balls going for just 15 runs.
The visitors need to win to keep their knockout hopes alive. They've but themselves in a great position to do so

A wide yorker. Yet another dot. This is sublime bowling.

Former IPL batter on BBC RadioSam Curran has changed his pace perfectly and that's why Jordan Thompson went through the shot so early.
London Spirit are in a right spot of bother.

Thompson c Jacks b Sam Curran 27 (Spirit 118-7)
Brilliant from Sam Curran he has a third wicket.
Jordan Thompson has to go big but can only edge it into the air and Will Jacks takes a simple catch.

Thompson 27, Dawson 3
A yorker is squeezed from Thompson for two.

Too high from Sam Curran. A no ball and a free hit.

A single to finish. Dawson will pinch the strike.
What a turnaround from the Invincibles. I haven't seen Spirits downed this quickly since......you can insert your own jokes here.

Former IPL batter on BBC RadioIt's all swing but no ping at the moment from the batters. The Currans have both bowled very, very well.

Brilliant from Tom Curran whose slower balls have Liam Dawson in all sorts of trouble.
