Phoenix turn to their sixth bowler of the innings as leg spinner Hannah Baker comes into the attack.
Laura Wolvaardt looks in the mood though as she plays a brilliant sweep shot that sends the ball racing away for another four.
Yes, it is a small total. But Wolvaardt's innings has been superb.
Originals 61-1
27 runs needed
Brilliant technique from Ami Campbell.
She begins to play a pre-meditated paddle shot but the delivery is so wide she quickly reverts to a regulation paddle shot instead and the ball goes over short third for another four.
Campbell has moved on to 24 from 25 deliveries.
Originals 51-1
37 runs needed
Laura Wolvaardt can score all over the park.
This time she is sweeping fine and the ball beats the despairing dive of a fielder on the boundary.
Next up it is her trademark cover drive that fizzes past two fielders and races away for another four. Wonderful shot.
Just 37 runs needed for victory now.
Originals 41-1
47 runs needed
Shot! Laura Wolvaardt scampers down the track and plays a lovely lofted drive over mid-off for four.
Originals 37-1
More quick running between the wickets as a push past mid-on by Ami Campbell brings three.
These Originals batters are rotating the strike well at the moment. There is no need to play risky expansive shots as they chase such a low score.
51 more runs needed from 60 balls.
Originals 32-1
Laura Wolvaardt is very nearly deceived by a slower ball as she gets the timing of her shot all wrong. But fortunately for the South African the ball lofts over two fielders and lands safe, allowing Originals to run two.
I wondered how long it would take for Phoenix to turn to Issy Wong but I can wonder no longer. She will bowl the next set.

Birmingham Phoenix needed a good start to the innings and they got it.
Hats off to Amy Jones too for the catch, great athleticism.
Originals 28-1
60 runs needed
Time for more spin as Katie Levick enters the attack.
These Manchester Originals are rapid between the wickets to run three as Laura Wolvaardt clips one down to deep fine leg.
A couple of singles complete a decent set for Originals, who are rebuilding nicely as they chase this modest total.
Originals 23-1
65 runs needed
Lovely shot - the shot of the innings so far.
Laura Wolvaardt plays a brilliant, wristy cut through a gap backward of square in the off side and the ball races away for four.
Wolvaardt has such brilliant technique.
Not out
Nope. Ami Campbell survives.
Erin Burns fumbled the ball when the throw came in so knocked the stumps with her hands rather than the ball.
Umpire review
Have Phoenix struck again here?
Manchester Originals scamper through for a single and Ami Campbell may just have been short of her ground when the bails where whipped off.
The umpires send it upstairs.
Post update
Time for some early spin as Erin Burns comes into the attack.
Given the success the Manchester Originals spinners had that is no real surprise.
Originals 7-1
That will ease the pressure slightly.
Ami Campbell is offered some width by Sophie Devine and she plays a lovely drive down the ground for four.
Here is a moment of history as Fi Morris completes the first women's Hundred five-wicket haul.
Originals 3-1
85 runs needed
Tess Flintoff continues with a second set of five and is really troubling Ami Campbell as she angles the ball across the left-hander.
Campbell will probably be relived to get off strike with a single after fending a short delivery into the leg side.
The experienced Sophie Devine will bowl the next set.
How's stat?!
Throughout
her T20 career, Laura Wolvaardt has scored 36% of her runs through extra cover and long
off.
In 2023, that went up to 38% (second-most among all batters who
played 15 or more innings in 2023).
Furthermore in 2023, she has scored
25% of her runs through extra cover alone.
Originals 1-1
87 runs needed
Ami Campbell is the new batter, joining Laura Wolvaardt, and she gets off the mark with a push to mid-on.
Wolvaardt then very nearly chops onto her own stumps as Tess Flintoff gets one to jag back in to the Originals opener.
What a start to the innings.
WICKET
Lamb c Jones b Flintoff 0 (Originals 0-1)
Well, well. What a start for Birmingham Phoenix!
It is not the best ball from Tess Flintoff in fairness, angled down leg. But Emma Lamb has gone after it and gloved the ball through to Amy Jones, who takes a really smart catch diving to her left.

Thanks, Ffion.
Talk about spin to win. Take a bow, Fi Morris.
Sophie Ecclestone's figures were not too shabby either.
It will take something pretty special for Birmingham Phoenix to win from here.
Post update
So, job half done for the Originals.
Sometimes chasing a low total is tricky, and Birmingham Phoenix have got some canny bowlers too.
