- BATSMENRB4s6sSR13.1 full outside off, use the feet to come down the ground but ends up digging it out towards covers. A simple catch there for the fielder to her right 104/24.3 Devine goes again but this time the connection isn't as good. Her groan, as soon as she played the shot, tells as much. Ends up pulling this short ball straight to Wolvaardt at deep square leg 37/114.2 full on the leg stump, Jones was looking to loft it on the leg side but plays a touch early and gets a leading edge. Mid-off settles under it 110/319.2 a slower one outside off, waits for it before trying to cut it. Gets a bottom edge into the ground that goes on to dislodge the bails 150/4Extras4 (nb 2, w 2)TOTAL153/4 (20 Overs, RR: 7.65 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-37 (Sophie Devine, 4.3 ov), 2-104 (Eve Jones, 13.1 ov), 3-110 (Amy Jones, 14.2 ov), 4-150 (Sophie Molineux, 19.2 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.5 there's the wicket, and it's the big one. Healy steps out again, and while she's been doing that with no worries against everyone else, she's facing Molineux now, and the left-arm spinner slips a quick, in-drifting full ball that slips below her bat as she reaches out to stab it away. Jones does the rest behind the stumps, and the Superchargers strike at a crucial moment 68/19.3 another wicket, and both openers have fallen in quick succession. Looks to step out to a slow, flighted ball on a leg-stumpish line. Has to manufacture all the power herself, goes for a bottom-hand shovel, and Gwenan Davies does brilliantly to sprint in from deep square leg and catch the dipping ball low, diving forward and to her left 69/218.2 and Molineux has her revenge. Attacks the stumps with a flat length ball, and Wolvaardt can't get enough power behind her slog-sweep. Perry completes the job, running in from the boundary at deep midwicket 133/411.5 brilliant. Arlott's been mixing up her pace nicely, and this one's a quicker ball, a bit of an in-ducker, and it is nowhere near short enough to pull. Sneaks under the attempted shot, smacks into her back leg right in front, and there's no thought of a review from Bess Heath 80/319.1 and that could be that. The big wicket. Length ball angling into the stumps, whipped in the air, timed fairly well, but picks out Perry, running smartly to her left at deep midwicket 136/5Extras6 (lb 4, w 2)TOTAL148/5 (20 Overs, RR: 7.4 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-68 (Alyssa Healy, 8.5 ov), 2-69 (Gaby Lewis, 9.3 ov), 3-80 (Bess Heath, 11.5 ov), 4-133 (Laura Wolvaardt, 18.2 ov), 5-136 (Hollie Armitage, 19.1 ov)
