5:21pm Spirit stay on sixth while Phoenix continue to be at the bottom of the pile. To think that the latter were comfortably in the front for the first 90 balls of the game. Then came the 21-run set from Capsey that also included her shoulder injury scare. Spirit took 37 from the last ten - the most by any team in the last ten balls in the women's Hundred. And they continued that momentum on with the ball, with Kapp delivering the good early with the ball as well. Phoenix found no way back from that. On a track that assisted spin, Dean returned three wickets with a fine spell.
Marizanne Kapp, Match Hero: The atmosphere. A special ground. Always heard about Lord's as a kid for years. Happy when London Spirit called me up, always enjoy playing at Lord's. We haven't batted well. Lord's is the trickiest wicket to bat on in England. Today was the first time we batted well.
Right then, that's all we have from this game at Lord's. But don't go too far away. The men get underway at the same venue in about half an hour's time. So hop over and join us for that. Till then, take care, ciao!

de Klerk to King, OUT, Plumb in front! Quicker length ball slanting in on middle. King misses her heave across the line and is a dead duck. A massive 33-run win for Spirit

de Klerk to Fatima Sana, FOUR, A proper shot against a spinner! Tossed up legcutter once again. Like a legspinner really. Sana charges down and lofts it straight up and over

Alana King hoped she wouldn't be needed with the bat

de Klerk to Lamb, OUT, Deception of the highest order! A loopy legcutter on middle and leg, and on a length. Almost like a legspinner with a longer run-up. Lamb goes for the pull but she is through her shot before the ball arrives. Spins in a touch to disturb the woodwork
