Top 3 reasons why London Spirit Women lost to Northern Superchargers Women in the Hundred Women's 2025 match 22

In Match 22 of The Hundred Women’s 2025 on August 20, London Spirit Women suffered an eight-wicket loss to Northern Superchargers Women at Lord's. Spirit batted first but could only make 90/8 in their 100 balls, with Georgia Redmayne (29) the highest score, with small contributions from Issy Wong (24) and Charlotte Dean (12). The Superchargers' attack, led by Annabel Sutherland (3/20), kept Spirit under pressure throughout their innings. Superchargers chased the target down comfortably, reaching 93/2 in just 66 balls. Here are the top reasons why London Spirit Women lost the game. 

1. Batting Collapse Under Early Pressure

London Spirit lost wickets quickly in clusters, being breached in the powerplay and escalating their downfall. Kira Chathli fell for a duck and Georgia Redmayne's 29 from 29 was the only real support. Spirit finished at 90/8, a paltry effort on a good batting pitch.

2. Superchargers’ Clinical Bowling Effort

The Northern bowlers executed plans superbly, giving nothing away. Annabel Sutherland was the pick with 3/20, while Grace Ballinger (2/12) and Nicola Carey (2/17) supported well. Their disciplined attack kept Spirit tied down and ensured a below-par total.
