A thumping win for Spirit to close out the group stage in the Women's comp. The men will take on each other on the same ground. You can find out coverage of the action here. See you in the knockout stages. Goodbye from me, Ekanth, and our scorer, Chandan Duorah.
Grace Harris, POTM: It's one of the better days I've had in England. Happy to have freed up and contributed. Loved the pitch as a batter, wouldn't have if I were a bowler. Lucky I didn't have to roll the arm over. Genuinely a good wicket to bat on. Happy that I scored some runs. (What team were looking for) Wanted to finish on a positive and free up. I had to battle with the mentality of being an opening batter vs having a swing, with the risk in your favour, in the middle order. Glad I didn't overthink the game, which I do sometimes, moving around the order. Heather is a fantastic captain. I'd only played against her, was great to play under her, know how she thinks of and control the game. I've had a ball with the London Spirit, would've loved to have contributed more but maybe next year. Don't know. I name all my bats after burgers because they're all stickered the same, how'd you tell them apart otherwise? This one's already named: Zinger Stacker, it came through today. It has a chunkier middle as does Big Mac, they've just been broken and might have to go to the shop for repairs.
5:21pm: An absolute drubbing. Harris ensured Phoenix never entered the contest in the first innings. Kerr and Glenn did so in the second. Gibson getting Devine early was key. Munro's set being filled with back-of-hand slower balls was a point of note. Kalis was the only batter to get a good start. Burns was very aggressive but couldn't get going. The target and the ever increasing asking rate never gave Phoenix a chance, and, sadly, they'll have to end their season without a win.
