Scorer: Binoy George | Commentator: Ashish Pant

With that, we are done for the day! Thanks for joining us tonight. There is a another match though with men's side taking center-stage.

Naomi Dattani is the Match Hero: It was unbelievable. Our fielding and bowling unit set it up nicely and then we made it a litle bit interesting in the second half but we got over the line and that's what counts. [On the chase] They bowled well, but batting with Scriv at the end we got over the line, so very proud of that. [On the catch to dismiss Arlott] It was just one of those things, you practice them in training...I think I sort of over ran but glad Monaghan was there to complete the catch. [Conversation with Scrivens] We have batted a lot together, so just backed our strengths, reminded ourselves what we need to do and took it as deep as we could.

5.38 It shouldn't have been so tough and Spirit somehow managed to huff and puff over the line thanks largely to a super 57-run stand between Dattani and Scrivens for the eighth wicket. The duo came in with the side tottering on 26 for 6, chasing 83. They started off sedately, played out a few dot balls and ran very well between the wickets. Scrivens used her feet very well throughout the innings, while Dattani relied more on her sweeps. Eventually, the duo held their nerves and saw their side home. Phoenix, well they out up a brave fight but it was always going to be tough for them after they were bowled out for 82.

Molineux to Scrivens, 2 runs, Phoenix are knocked out as a brilliant eighth wicket partnership sees Spirit over the line in front of their home crowd! Oh, that is a top win - hard-fought, ugly but a win altogether. Quicker on leg, she shimmies down, gets it on the full and clips to long on. A wild throw gives them two and a win.

Just 2 needed off 4 balls. Field comes in

Molineux to Dattani, (no ball) 2 runs, Oh, a high full toss and it's a no ball! It's all gone wrong for Molineux. Waist-high on middle, she dances down but the umpire feels that was still quite high.

Right 6 to get then. Molineux tasked with the last over.

END OF OVER:

Arlott to Dattani, 2 runs, Ah, just manages to prevent the boundary does the fielder at deep midwicket. There was a mix-up as well but they went to the wrong end. Oh, it's all happening! Back of a length on middle, she slams the pull and sets off. The fielder collects it on the bounce. A bit of a miscommunication in the middle but they make it home, eventually.
