Healy has thumped that like someone who is actually a bit ticked off.

It is a switch of ends for Charlie Dean - who didn't concede a run from her first five.

She does this time though.

After Bess Heath escapes through for a single Alyssa Healy shows her class with a wonderful sweep shot that beats the field and disappears for four. Great technique.

Jemimah was trying to force it and it's a bit of an ugly shot. She'll be disappointed when she sees that back.

A couple of singles wrap up Megan Schutt's first five. Freya Davies will bowl the next set at the other end.

The sun is absolutely beating down at Headingley as the stands slowly begin to fill up ahead of what should be a cracking day.

Alyssa Healy is under a bit of pressure, she didn't score many runs in the Commonwealth Games. She tweeted about trying to find form in The Hundred so she knows she needs a score.

Megan Schutt will bowl the next five and Alyssa Healy gets off the mark with a fine drive down the ground for four.

Great shot.

Do we call it a maiden? Yes, let's. It's five dot balls to start from Charlie Dean.

Great start for Charlie Dean as she bowls her first set of five without conceding.

There's also a strangled appeal when Alyssa Healy misses an attempted sweep-shot. Nothing given though.

Alyssa Healy and Jemimah Rodrigues is a formidable-looking opening partnership for Superchargers.

Charlie Dean will open the bowling for London Spirit.

Here we go!

When you lose someone like Heather Knight, it leaves a huge hole in your team. London Spirit look a batter short and that is because she isn't there. They will have to adapt their plans and players will have to fill roles they aren't used to.

With the shortened format this year because of the Commonwealth Games the pressure is already on these two teams after defeat in their opening games.

The Superchargers lost by nine wickets by Oval Invincibles on Thursday thanks to a fine 74 by their former skipper Lauren Wilnfield-Hill.

The following day London Spirit lost to Southern Brave by six wickets despite that wonderful 97 by Beth Mooney.

Alex Hartley, newly of Welsh Fire and presenter of the No Balls podcast, is commentating today with BBC Cricket and straight off the bat the conversation turns to her spectacular catch from yesterday.

We agree Alex, it was pretty special

Today's match up sees to of the finest batters in the women's game go head-to-head.

Laura Wolvaardt came into this year's Hundred in fine form having hit four half-centuries in five innings for South Africa in their multi-format series with England last month. Possessing one of the finest, most elegant cover drives in the world game, the 23-year-old picked up where she left off in the Superchargers' opener against Oval Invincibles on Thursday, hitting a sparkling 49 from just 39 balls.

Beth Mooney has had quite the year with the all-dominant Australia team. Ashes winner, World Cup winner and now Commonwealth Games gold medallist, Mooney began this year's Hundred with a sumptuous 97 not out in London Spirit opening match defeat to Southern Brave.

Northern Superchargers captain Hollie Armitage: "We were going to have a bowl first too just to see what the pitch is like.

"We've focused on ourselves quite a lot and we've acknowledged areas we need to improve on. We had some good plans with the ball in the first game but just didn't execute as well as we can.

"We love playing at Headingley and hopefully the crowd can get behind us."

London Spirit captain Charlie Dean: "We're going to bowl first. We're not too sure what's a good score on this pitch so put them in and then have a chase.

"Beth Mooney is out of this world. she is brilliant player and hopefully she can do it again. We were a little off in the field so bring all the energy today.

"It is an exciting form of cricket, something a little bit of different and it has ignited another love for the game."

London Spirit skipper Charlie Dean, leading the side this year in the absence of the injured Heather Knight, wins the toss and chooses to bowl first.
