Manchester Super Giants produced a dominant win over London Spirit at Lord's, with Ryana MacDonald-Gay setting the tone by taking four wickets in a one-sided Hundred match.
London Spirit were put in to bat and never found a stable rhythm. Amy Jones was removed for a first-ball duck, then Marie Kelly and Marizanne Kapp were dismissed in the space of two balls as the innings continued to unravel.
MacDonald-Gay's four wickets helped keep London Spirit to 80 runs, with the innings ending with nine deliveries remaining. That left Manchester Super Giants a modest target, and they made short work of the chase.
The Super Giants reached the total in 59 deliveries, sealing a comfortable victory and underlining how quickly the match swung after the early wickets.
What it means next
The result gives Manchester Super Giants a clear boost in The Hundred, while London Spirit will be left to regroup after being bowled out cheaply at Lord's. On Thursday, attention shifts to Edgbaston for the next Hundred double-header, with Birmingham Phoenix facing Trent Rockets.
