- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.1 comes down to launch it, edged and gone! Gordon races off in celebration having struck with her first ball. No sighters for Kelly, who attacked the left-armer but is undone by a smidge of spin, she was aiming down the ground but the ball skews high to short third and is safely held 15/110.3 bowled 'er! Rodrigues attempts to up the pace, moves a long way across looking to target backward square leg... misses the shot and Stonehouse hits the woodwork. First Hundred wicket for her. Rockets finally break the stand 68/216.4 slogged across the line... this one hasn't got the legs! Top-edged out towards deep midwicket and Gardner settles under the catch. An impressive innings from Litchfield but she was at the Everything Must Go stage of the innings 103/414.3 bouncer, edged behind! More fine work from the keeper! Wareham's pinch-slogging role fails to come off, her eyes lit up at what looked like a half-tracker, but with pace off she couldn't time the stroke and Lee had her hands ready to cling on to the edge 91/3Extras10 (lb 1, nb 2, w 7)TOTAL134/4 (20 Overs, RR: 6.7 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-15 (Marie Kelly, 3.1 ov), 2-68 (Jemimah Rodrigues, 10.3 ov), 3-91 (Georgia Wareham, 14.3 ov), 4-103 (Phoebe Litchfield, 16.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.4 tossed up and Lee slog-sweeps... gone! Wareham strikes for Superchargers. Lee was hitting to the shorter boundary but against the spin and the ball only went high for a straightforward take at deep midwicket for Litchfield 61/112.5 slog-swept, she holes out this time! Takes on the legspinner, trying to keep the tempo high, but sends a full toss down the throat of Higham at midwicket, no need to move for this one and she takes the catch reverse-cup 92/215.3 bowled her, NSB hoodwinked! Higham's delivery was so slow that Sciver-Brunt was through her slog-sweep early, the ball clipped her on the back and ricocheted into the stumps! Some turn as well, defeating the Rockets skipper. Pressure on now 102/317.4 Smith hits the stumps again, Harmpreet is castled! Smith's arm ball beats the bat on the inside and Superchargers are on the charge here! Huge wicket, the India captain walks back with 11 from 12. She couldn't get to the pitch and played all around it 107/615.5 b-i-i-i-g turn, hits middle and off! Higham bags two in the set and Rockets are suddenly four down and sitting uncomfortably. Wilson was shuffling across as the ball spun back from outside off, skidding through low to rattle the poles 102/417.1 fired through the gate! Gardner cracks, charges down and tries to whip across the line, she's beaten by one skidding through to thump into off stump. Looks like she played for turn and was done by the ball zipping down the Bakerloo 106/518.1 Bullseye! Higham hits middle! Gives it some air, Dattani has a desperate heave across the line, and the ball straightens gently into the stumps for a third wicket in four balls from the Superchargers diminutive offie 107/7Extras4 (w 4)TOTAL125/7 (20 Overs, RR: 6.25 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-61 (Lizelle Lee, 8.4 ov), 2-92 (Bryony Smith, 12.5 ov), 3-102 (Nat Sciver-Brunt, 15.3 ov), 4-102 (Fran Wilson, 15.5 ov), 5-106 (Joanne Gardner, 17.1 ov), 6-107 (Harmanpreet Kaur, 17.4 ov), 7-107 (Naomi Dattani, 18.1 ov)
