Shimron Hetmyer’s 44 wasn’t enough to prevent the London Spirit from going down by 12 runs to the Manchester Originals in the Men’s Hundred at Lord’s on Friday.

The Originals, after being inserted by the Spirit, made 135-5 from their 100 balls thanks to 58 from Captain Phil Salt and 38 from Max Holden.

Fazalhaq Farooqi took 3-24 from 20 balls for the Originals.

This result means the Spirit, like their opponents, have no chance to advance to the knockout phase of the tournament.

This was the Originals’ first win in six games while the Spirit have a similar record and are one spot above them in the eight-team table.
