- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.5 looked like that was the only way to stop Bouchier's carnage, Spirit will be relieved, she tries some improvisation and scoops it to fine leg, starts heading down the pitch and the non-striker's wasn't interested, sharp throw from the fielder and keeper collects it cleanly, quickly removes the bails 57/114.1 Picks up a wicket straightaway after the strategic break, that angle is tough to negotiate with, came round the wicket, turning away from off, she went for a late cut and feathered it to the keeper, sharp catch from Redmayne! Jubilation and fist-pumps all around 103/410.1 That is a phenomenal catch, tossed up on off, goes for a slog sweep and Dean snaffled that while moving to her right at deep midwicket, that's how you do it, sharp reflexes and it's a much-needed breakthrough for London Spirit 77/211.2 Round the wicket, short of a length and roars back from outside off, pulled away in the air, didn't get all of it, cries of catch it and Griffith at deep midwicket hangs onto it brilliantly 81/318.5 Full-toss brings up a wicket, Adams will be admonishing herself, that was at an uncomfortable height and she tried to drag it from outside off but it stuck straight into the hands of fielder at deep midwicket, excellent low catch 144/519.5 Over the wicket, back of a length at an innocuous pace around the fifth stump, tries to clobber it straight down the ground, got the elevation but not the distance, easy catch at mid-off for Gibson who pouches it safely down her throat 151/6Extras3 (w 3)TOTAL151/6 (20 Overs, RR: 7.55 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-57 (Maia Bouchier, 6.5 ov), 2-77 (Charli Knott, 10.1 ov), 3-81 (Freya Kemp, 11.2 ov), 4-103 (Danni Wyatt-Hodge, 14.1 ov), 5-144 (Georgia Adams, 18.5 ov), 6-151 (Chloe Tryon, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.4 Oh, wow, what a sharp catch from Coleman! Just merrily belts it back in the direction of the bowler and she was vigilant enough to gobble it right after her follow-through, Lanning ebullience comes to an end, Brave know the value of this wicket, massive celebration. What a start to her Hundred! 16/111.2 That spun back viciously and too close to cut, she backed away and made room to play the shot and ended up making a big mess of her stumps, Redmayne's resistance comes to an end but it was a doughty knock, scoreboard pressure does funny things and she had to accelerate, ball kept a bit low too 78/35.3 Botch-up! Round the wicket, tossed up outside off, clatters it to cover and just kept running down the pitch, no interest from the non-striker, single wasn't on and she showed no desperation to scramble, no chance to get back and every step would have been futile, pressure of dots and a quiet passage might have contributed to this terrible mix-up! 29/216.3 Takes the pace off and lands it slightly shorter in the channel, clonks it down to mid-off and tries to scamper in a run, direct hit are always dangerous, she was struggling and not even in the frame, Gibson's cameo comes to an end, wonderful fight, they are in this contest 122/4Extras5 (w 5)TOTAL153/4 (19.2 Overs, RR: 7.88 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Meg Lanning, 2.4 ov), 2-29 (Cordelia Griffith, 5.3 ov), 3-78 (Georgia Redmayne, 11.2 ov), 4-122 (Danielle Gibson, 16.3 ov)
