London Spirit pulled off a nail-biting five-wicket win against Trent Rockets with just three balls left, thanks to a stunning finish by Nadine de Klerk. Chasing 143, Spirit slumped to 67 for 4 but de Klerk and Marie Kelly stitched together a 63-run partnership in 37 balls. After Kelly’s exit, de Klerk remained cool under pressure, smashing two towering sixes off the final four balls to seal victory with 41 not out off just 22 balls. Marizanne Kapp led the Spirit attack with 3 for 12, dismissing top-order batters including Beth Mooney. Rockets’ Ash Gardner (34) and Bess Heath (31 off 19) kept them in the hunt, but Spirit’s disciplined bowling, including Charlie Dean’s 2 for 18, held firm. Both teams now sit with 1 win each, Rockets third on net run rate. Up next: Southern Brave aim to stay top against MI London, while the men’s Brave squad seeks their first win later that night.
