London Spirit became the second team to be eliminated in The Hundred men’s competition after losing to bottom-side Manchester Originals who recorded their first win of the season.
Originals captain Phil Salt struck 58 off 41 as his side, who were already knocked out, posted 135-5 at Lord’s.
Afghanistan seamer Fazalhaq Farooqi then took 3-24 as impressive bowling limited Spirit to 123-5 and ended the Originals’ six-match winless run.
Keaton Jennings finished on 61 not out from 50 deliveries and Shimron Hetmyer hit 44 off 35, but the hosts ended 12 runs short.
Both sides have now won only one of their six Hundred matches this season, with Spirit moving off the bottom spot thanks to net run rate.
