Jos Buttler goes for placement rather than power, clipping Worrall of his legs for four. It skims across the surface, you'd never know we've had so much rain this morning so 10 out of 10 to the ground staff..

Similar shot to Buttler and Salt punishes the wider delivery. So good to watch.

I think the bowlers are encouraged to bowl full because of the movement but if it's too full then it's like giving sweets to a baby.

Anything you can do, I can do better says Phil Salt!

Buttler's fellow opener also goes down the ground with another superb six off the nonplussed Thompson.

Originals 9-0published at 8 balls

That's more like it, Jos!

Buttler lifts Thompson straight, high over the rope and just under the media centre with a lovely, easy looking six.

No fireworks yet from Jos Buttler, he can't get Worrall away for the rest of his set.

Jordan Thompson is next.

Jos Buttler didn't even look to turn and run back for two. Phil Salt was eager for the second.

At Old Trafford you have to run the twos.

Dan Worrall is the bowler first up, and Phil Salt pushes him into the offside for an easy single.

It'll be fascinating to see Zak Crawley later on, back on the scene of that incredible 189 in the Test match a few weeks ago. But first up we'll be seeing Phil Salt and Jos Buttler, who are on their way out to the middle.

The weather is continuing to disrupt the women's competition.

Over at Edgbaston, the rain is falling and the start of the game between Birmingham Phoenix and Trent Rockets has been delayed.

The covers are still on so there is no news yet about the toss or any potential start time.

We will keep you updated with news from that game as soon as we have it.

Manchester Originals: Phil Salt, Jos Buttler(c)(wk), Laurie Evans, Max Holden, Ashton Turner, Paul Walter, Jamie Overton, Usama Mir, Tom Hartley, Josh Little, Richard Gleeson.

London Spirit: Adam Rossington(wk), Zak Crawley, Dan Lawrence (c), Matthew Wade, Daryl Mitchell, Ravi Bopara, Matthew Critchley, Jordan Thompson, Liam Dawson, Nathan Ellis, Dan Worrall.

London Spirit captain Dan Lawrence on Sky Sports: "With a bit of weather around, we don't really know whether we're going to get a full game and it's also a hybrid wicket so we don't know what it'll be doing, so I thought it'd be best to have a bowl on it.

"I thought our bowlers were brilliant the other night, we were just a few short with the bat. We've got one of the form players in world cricket in Zak Crawley coming in for us."

Manchester Originals captain Jos Buttler on Sky Sports: "It's nice to be back at home and hopefully we get a full game in.

"Max Holden was brilliant the other night, it's never easy coming in at 0-2 so he showed some real skill and character.

"Josh Tongue misses out tonight and Richard Gleeson is in."

Dan Lawrence fancies bowling first, and and on a murky day that's understandable. We'll be seeing his opposite number Jos Buttler opening with Phil Salt for the Originals very soon.

Hello, and welcome to our coverage of Manchester Originals v London Spirit.

And the big news is that despite the women's match being rained off this morning, we are due to start at Old Trafford at 14:30! It has dried up enough and we are all set.
