So it looks like I won't get post-match on TV, so that's that from me. Spirit looked like their season was done at 87 for 9, but that unbeaten last wicket partnership may prove priceless to their campaign. That's it from me, join us for the men's game later this evening

100
W
Amelia Kerr to R MacDonald-Gay, OUT

finishes up with a brilliant catch! Clothed back to the bowler, who dived to her right sharply to pluck it out of the air with one hand. The best bit of fielding all game comes off the last delivery, and the Spirit have got themselves a huge result here

Ryana MacDonald-Gay c & b Kerr 2 (3b 0x4 0x6 8m) SR: 66.66
99

Amelia Kerr to Smale, 1 run

googly, inside half of the bat into the onside

98
4
Amelia Kerr to Smale, FOUR runs

slapped over mid-off for four. It was a touch overpitched and well-struck by Smale

97
W
Amelia Kerr to Gray, OUT

swing and a miss, and Kerr cleans her up! It's all happening quickly now, and the Spirit, who needed a win to stay alive, and looked like they wouldn't get it, are about to get a big one

Eva Gray b Kerr 0 (1b 0x4 0x6 1m) SR: 0
96
1W
Amelia Kerr to Villiers, 1 run, OUT

works it to long-on and comes back for a second she never really looked like she would complete. The umpire review finds her short

95
1
Norris to R MacDonald-Gay, 1 run

hits it to mid-off and they take a single, simply banking on the fielder missing the direct hit. There's a chance at the other end they don't take either, but it doesn't matter much now

94
1
Norris to Villiers, 1 run
93
2
Norris to Villiers, 2 runs

a little fuller, slogged over cow corner, where Gibson puts down a slightly tricky chance. She did well to get there, but then it bursts through her fingers

92

Norris to R MacDonald-Gay, 1 run

driven to mid=off and they scurry through for one

Dean to Chathli, OUT

another top edge gives Ghosh the easiest catch she could ask for. The ball stopped a bit in the wicket and she was early into the shot

1W
Gibson to Villiers, 1 run, OUT

utter desperation leads to a run-out. Mistimed into the offside and they hurtle back, but the non-striker is never making that ground up. Griffith has to go and the Invincibles slide even further
