Manchester Originals Women have lost a close game to London Spirit Women by 3 wickets in Match 9 of The Hundred Women’s 2025 at Old Trafford. Deandra Dottin (36 off 30) and Beth Mooney (26 off 20) led a rather mediocre total to 122/6 in the 100 balls while batting first. Impressed by Grace Harris’ unbeaten half-century and valuable middle-order support, London Spirit comfortably made the target their own in 98 balls. It was the failure of the Originals to defend a low total that, along with the well-executed bowling by the Spirit, brought about their exit. Read about the main factors that led to the Manchester Originals defeat

1. Grace Harris’ Match-Winning Knock

Grace Harris turned out to be the change of fortunes for London Spirit as she made a stunning unbeaten 50 off just 32 balls. Her innings, adorned with the aggressive shot selection, came at a very vital stage of the chase and thereby made the target easily attainable at all times. She managed to keep the scoreboard ticking very efficiently while getting punishments for the bowlers who bowled dot balls.

2. Disciplined Bowling by London Spirit

The Spirit bowlers were spot on with their plans and they didn’t allow the Originals to gain any momentum. Charlotte Dean led from the front with 2/18 in 20 balls, while Tara Norris (1/10) and Charli Knott (1/13) also chipped in, ensuring no big partnerships developed.

3. Lack of Acceleration from Originals

Despite good starts from Dottin, Mooney, and Morris, the Originals could not push the scoring rate high enough. They managed just 122/6, with no batter able to go past Dottin’s 36. The lack of late-innings acceleration left their bowlers with too little to defend against a confident Spirit batting lineup.

Manchester Originals Women (MNR-W) will play London Spirit Women (LNS-W) in Match 9 of The Hundred Women's 2025 at Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester, on Monday, August 11, at 7:30 PM IST. The Originals presently occupy the fifth position on the points table with one win and will be aiming to create momentum with another victory. Beth Mooney, who was at the forefront of their last winning effort, will certainly be the one if they are to continue their journey, no doubt.

In great form and having won all of their two matches they have played so far, London Spirit Women are. They will be brimming with confidence and are expected to extend their winning streak and consolidate their position at the top end of the table further. Fans can expect a high-scoring game in Manchester, as both teams carry strong batting lineups.

MNR-W vs LNS-W: Pitch Report

The surface at Old Trafford is expected to be batting-friendly with true bounce and good carry, allowing batters to play through the line comfortably. The conditions are suitable for stroke play and if pacers manage to hit the right spots, especially in the first overs, they can get some assistance from the wicket. The team that will win the toss might decide to bat first and make a target, which is hard to chase on this track.
