9:20 PM IST & 4:50 PM Local Time: London Spirit Women have booked a place in the final with a comprehensive 8-wicket win over Oval Invincibles. They will take on Welsh Fire in the summit clash on Sunday. Georgia Redmayne finished the game with a boundary to bring up her half-century.
Earlier in the match, London Spirits won the toss and invited Oval Invincibles to bat first. Skipper Lauren Winfield-Hill looked good during her short stay at the crease. She made 17 off 10. Paige Scholfield fell cheaply, she was out for 5 off 7.
Alice Capsey and Marizanne Kapp steadied the innings with fine knocks. Lauren Harris made 16 off 7 but the lower middle-order fell like a pack of cards as they finished with a paltry total of 113/9 from their set of 100 balls.
Charlie Dean was the pick of the bowlers, finishing with figures of 3/24. Sarah Glenn, Danielle Gibson and Eva Gray all picked up two wickets each.
In response, Georgia Redmayne and Meg Lanning started nicely. Both added 35 runs for the first wicket.
Lanning was dismissed by Kapp for the third time in this competition but other bowlers didn't give her enough support from the other end. Cordelia Griffith made one off five and she was dismissed by Amanda Jade Wellington.
Skipper Heather Knight walked out to the middle and made sure there were no more hiccups as the London Spirit chased down the total with nine balls to spare.
She remained unbeaten on 36 off 23 and took her side to the final.

Hero of the Match: Georgia Redmayne
Georgia Redmayne (Hero of the Match): "Truly special. We came with good spirits into this game. We did simple things right. Bowled in the right areas and did well in both departments. Playing the final at Lord's will be really special.
Sometimes, you face very good bowling upfront. But it was good to come out with a good intent while chasing.
I'll be fine for the final. It's going to be an incredible match to play in front of the home fans tomorrow.
Just take it easy. We have had a really good pep coming into this game. Just come out and same game plan as today. Keep things simple and do those right. Hopefully, we will come out on top in the final."

Heather Knight (London Spirit Women Captain): "We identified that taking pace off the ball was key on this surface. It was another brilliant display in the field from everyone. Gibson is a gun fielder. To take that catch after two drops earlier was special. We talked yesterday about not being nervy if we are chasing."
That brings an end to our coverage of this game. Do switch tabs as the Eliminator of the Men's Hundred 2024 isn't far away. For now, this is Akshay Bhide, signing off, on behalf of my co-commentator Ajay Pal Singh and scorer Paras Yadav. Bye bye.
