Pamela Cookey receives the ball against Hertfordshire Mavericks captain Layla Guscoth
Manchester Thunder and Hertfordshire Mavericks remain level on points at the top of netball's Superleague following victories on Saturday.
Mavericks beat Surrey Storm 55-50 at the London Live game at the Copper Box.
Thunder had earlier secured a narrow 49-44 victory at bottom-of-the table side Yorkshire Jets.
The winless Jets were all square with their high-flying opponents with five minutes to play, only for Thunder to pull clear with time running out.
Team Bath are in third place after recording a convincing 60-44 win over Loughborough Lightning on Friday, while Celtic Dragons also earned a 53-45 victory over Team Northumbria.
The Dragons' second win of the campaign lifted them above Northumbria into sixth place in the table.
Mavericks can open up a lead at the top of the table on Monday if they can win their home match against the Dragons.
