- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.1 Skipper gets the skipper! Generously flighted, fuller-length ball on the pads, commits too early on the paddle sweep, mishits the stroke and chips it softly to short fine leg. Norris makes no mistake and completes the catch. 45/32.1 Masterclass glove work by Redmayne! Short of a length ball sliding down the leg side shaping away, hangs back and plays the pull shot half-heartedly, finds the faint edge off the bottom hand and Redmayne anticipates the line of the ball perfectly behind the stumps, gobbles it up comfortably. 6/12.2 What is happening out there? Slight fuller length ball around the off stump channel, charges down the track and heaves it away with the inner part of the bat to wideish long on, calls for the second run straightaway. Amelia Kerr was always struggling right from the start, and she responded to her skipper. The throw is brilliant at the non-striker's end and Kerr is nowhere to be seen when the bails are clipped! 10/27.4 Chops on! Back of a length ball on the probing channel around the off stump line, moves onto the back foot and creates room outside leg, attempts to play it square of the wicket. The ball did not turn as she would have expected, failed to create the angle for the square cut, thick under-edge and crashed onto the stumps! 46/419.5 Dottin has holed out at deep midwicket! Full and overpitched ball on the pads, clears the front leg and tries to heave it away over the longest part of the boundary but did not get enough power and elevation to clear the ropes. The sweeper fielder moves to her right side and completes the catch. 122/612.5 Knott finds the breakthrough! Back of a length ball around the sixth stump line, moves onto the back foot and attempts to slash it through the covers, mistimes the stroke and strikes it aerially towards backward point. Sarah Glenn swiftly dived forward and took a brilliant low catch! 77/5Extras14 (lb 6, nb 4, w 4)TOTAL122/6 (20 Overs, RR: 6.1 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-6 (Kathryn Bryce, 2.1 ov), 2-10 (Amelia Kerr, 2.2 ov), 3-45 (Beth Mooney, 6.1 ov), 4-46 (Seren Smale, 7.4 ov), 5-77 (Fi Morris, 12.5 ov), 6-122 (Deandra Dottin, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.4 Generously flighted fuller length ball on the stumps, Chathli shimmies down the track to break the shackles, does not get enough pace to work on it, and whacks it straight in the air towards long-on. Kerr does not have to move an inch and takes a straightforward catch. 56/34.5 Gaur strikes! A tad fuller length ball with a hint of shape away from the batter, loses her shape as she tries to clear the infield, and chips it straight into the hands of the cover fielder at the edge of the circle 27/15.2 Through the gates with a peach! Generously flighted length ball, completely deceiving the batter's stance as the googly delivery skids on through her defence; she tries to dab it off the back foot but fails to connect. 27/215.1 Cleaned her up! Full, straight and pace on delivery attacking the stumps, leans forward and closes the face of the bat early as Knott attempts to clip it over midwicket, uprooted the stumps! 80/416.4 Flighted length ball on the fourth stump line, Griffith attempts to go downtown, slices it in the air towards wide of long off, simple catch for Ecclestone 97/518.3 Back of a length ball on the stumps, shuffles across early, misses the straight ball as Wong tries to swing it away over fine leg. Massive appeal, and the finger goes up straight away. Wong went for the review, even though she was slowly walking back towards the dugout. Replay confirmed no bat involved and is plumb on middle-off. 114/618.4 Back-to-back wickets! Full and straight ball on the stumps, moves across the line of the ball and plays with the cross-bat, the ball kept low and thuds the pads in front of the stumps. Easy decision for the umpire, and Bryce is on a hat-trick now! 114/7Extras3 (nb 2, w 1)TOTAL124/7 (19.3 Overs, RR: 6.32 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-27 (Georgia Redmayne, 4.5 ov), 2-27 (Danielle Gibson, 5.2 ov), 3-56 (Kira Chathli, 11.4 ov), 4-80 (Charli Knott, 15.1 ov), 5-97 (Cordelia Griffith, 16.4 ov), 6-114 (Issy Wong, 18.3 ov), 7-114 (Charlie Dean, 18.4 ov)
