    We've seen some very good change-ups already from Tom Curran already. He's winning the battle out there at the moment.

    Great stuff from Tom Curran. His first five balls go for just one run.

    A little ramp shot attempted by Inglis and everybody's eyes went to the umpire but he did not move.

    Who is Peter Hatzoglou then?

    Well lucky for you we've just written a feature all about him.

    From club cricket a few weeks ago to being mentored by the late great Shane Warne read it all here.

  6. Spirit 11-1published at 10 balls

    New batter Josh Inglis and Adam Rossington are happy to rotate the strike.

    That was a nothing shot. A big really really over cow corner and he pays a heavy price. A very, very good comeback from Hatzoglou.

    He's bowled 'im! The perfect comeback from Peter Hatzoglou! The stumps are dismantled, the LED lights go up and Ben McDermott has to go for zero.

    McDermott b Hatzoglou 0 (Spirit 8-1)

    What a comeback!

    A swing and a miss from Ben McDermott and the ball crashes into his stumps.

    A huge cheer greets that wicket as he falls for a duck.

    The bowler won't be pleased, it's not an auspicious way to start your Hundred career.

  11. Spirit 8-0published at 5 balls

    Ah. He starts with a wide that goes for four.

  12. Spirit 3-0published at 5 balls

    Good first five balls from Sam Curran.

    Now we turn to spin with Peter Hatzoglou.

    There is heavyweight boxing tonight at the O2 Arena and this feels like a heavyweight contest at Lord's.

  15. Spirit 0-0published at 1 ball

    Sam Curran begins with the ball.

    A good piece of fielding prevents Adam Rossington starting with a sneaky single.

    The atmosphere is absolutely brilliant and it's a London derby. It's going to be a cracker of a game and we're all waiting eagerly.

    The players are running out. It looks like a full house at Lord's.

    Oval Invincibles captain Sam Billings on Sky Sports: "It looks a really good wicket.

    "They're a very good team and they're top if the table. We'll need a bit of revenge after the first loss.

    "A London derby, sunshine at Lord's, it doesn't get better. It's always an honour and a pleasure to play at the home of cricket.

    "Jason Roy is out with a bad back."

  20. Today's match-up: Morgan v Billingspublished at 18:53 British Summer Time 27 August 2022

    We've picked out a battle of the captains with Eoin Morgan and Sam Billings as our key match-up today.

    Both batters are in mixed form with ex-England white-ball captain Morgan coming off the back of a three-ball duck against the Welsh Fire last time out.

    But Morgan is more than capable of firing. He started this year's Hundred with scores of 47 and 37 and struck a rapid 27 off 16 against the Trent Rockets last weekend.

    Billings has had a poor Hundred campaign, making eight off eight against Southern Brave before falling for ducks against the Rockets and Birmingham Phoenix in his last two matches.

    Both of these batters are game-winners on their day. Will either of them post a big total today?
