Manchester Super Giants Women vs London Spirit Women Live స్కోర్, Match 3 of The Hundred Women, 2026

Time to switch the focus to the Men - A disappointing start for London Spirit Women in front of the Lord's crowd, but it is always better to get such a performance out of the way early in the season, rather than at a crucial juncture. However, the players will have to buck up and gear up for their next game quickly. Manchester Super Giants Women, on the other hand, will be delighted to start the season in that fashion and will look to build on this win. Right then, let's now shift our focus to the second game of the day, which will be played between the Mens from the two sides. That game is set to start at 5.30 pm GMT (11 pm IST), but you can tune in to our build-up, which starts soon. Cheers!

Bowlers set things up nicely - The foundation was laid down early by Meg Lanning and her side. After electing to bowl first, Grace Ballinger gave them a perfect start with a wicket in the very first set. The likes of Maitlan Brown and Ryana Macdonald-Gay followed her up with wickets of their own but it really was Ryana who stood out. Sophie Ecclestone was at her best as usual and Ryana's four-fer, coupled with a few run-outs, turned out to be the nail in the coffin for London Spirit Women. With the bat, Marizanne Kapp seemed like the only one who got a decent gauge of the track, and a couple of batters fought hard in the middle order, but it wasn't enough to take the Spirit to anywhere near the three-figure mark.

Player of the Match - Ryana Macdonald-Gay is given the accolade for her match-winning figures of 17/4. Macdonald-Gay expresses immense satisfaction with her side's collective bowling display, noting that the opening bowlers set the tone beautifully for the rest of the attack. Ryana feels in excellent rhythm following a thorough pre-tournament preparation period and credits her personal success to sticking to the basics and executing the team's clear pre-game plans perfectly. Stressing on how much she loves the change in scenery, Ryana praises the fantastic team environment and looks forward to taking the field for their upcoming home games at Old Trafford.

Not enough on the board - The Spirit Women were always going to be up against it with the ball, having mustered up just 80 runs with the bat. Marizanne Kapp bowled her heart out early on and did manage to pick up two wickets in two balls late in her spell. However, the opposition had already broke the back of the chase by then and the bowlers had no answers.

Starts all around - With only 81 needed for the win, captain Meg Lanning and Smriti Mandhana managed to negate the Powerplay and put on 33 runs for the first wicket. They did lose a couple of quick wickets and then Lanning fell too, but the likes of Paige Scholfield and Richa Ghosh finished things off in a canter when the target was in sight. Scholfield even hit a six to seal the deal.

Visitors stroll to the win - Manchester Super Giants Women have made light work of the run chase as expected and even though it wasn't quite a fluid batting display, it was more than enough. London Spirit Women only managed to prolong the inevitable and bowled reasonably well, but it was never going to be enough.
