- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR15.1 attempts to go up and over mid-off, but it can't clear Litchfield at mid-off! It was full, but she just couldn't get underneath it, and Litchfield takes a smart catch to send Devine on her way 83/64.1 she's tried that shot a few times, but on this occasion the straight drive goes right down mid-on's throat. It just wasn't quite full enough for her to get enough purchase on the shot, and Cross strikes after a handy opening partnership 29/17.3 picked up over midwicket, but while the shot was timed beautifully, it goes straight to Dobson, who makes no mistake 44/29.5 stunning catch off her own bowling! Slapped with venom back down the ground, and Wareham stuck her hands out, and the ball nestles in the right 56/311.2 banged into the pitch, and she holes out to deep midwicket. Very similar to the one that got Amy Jones, as she just couldn't get enough power to clear Dobson in the deep 65/414.4 direct hit sees the end of Arlott! It was timed well to mid-off and when she set off for the single, she looked in trouble. The direct hit sealed her fate; she's ended up well short 81/517.3 lovely shot but she picks out the long-off fielder. Stepped away to open up the offside and drove inside out, but Richards takes a good running catch as the Phoenix slide continues 95/719.4 short ball, steered towards midwicket and sets off for an impossible second run. And, of course, is run-out. Good throw from Wareham right over the bails, and Freeborn wasn't even in the frame 110/8Extras3 (nb 2, w 1)TOTAL110/8 (20 Overs, RR: 5.5 per 6 ball)Did not bat: KA LevickFall of wickets: 1-29 (Eve Jones, 4.1 ov), 2-44 (Amy Jones, 7.3 ov), 3-56 (Erin Burns, 9.5 ov), 4-65 (Tess Flintoff, 11.2 ov), 5-81 (Emily Arlott, 14.4 ov), 6-83 (Sophie Devine, 15.1 ov), 7-95 (Issy Wong, 17.3 ov), 8-110 (Abigail Freeborn, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.5 this time, the reverse sweep fails. Goes right through her and cleans up the stumps. It was a touch too full to play that shot, and she pays the price 58/22.5 shapes back into the pad and the umpire raises her finger! Lovely delivery that got sharp late swing. Rodrigues reviews, though I reckon she's in trouble here. Yep, three reds, and Wong has got Rodrigues 23/113.2 gets a leading edge as she tries to hoick it over cow corner. Gives Burns an easy catch to hold on to, and she makes no mistake 95/3Extras6 (b 1, lb 1, w 4)TOTAL112/3 (15.3 Overs, RR: 7.17 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-23 (Jemimah Rodrigues, 2.5 ov), 2-58 (Marie Kelly, 7.5 ov), 3-95 (Hollie Armitage, 13.2 ov)
