    2.3 zips under the bat, and Voll's early party has been crashed by Linsey Smith! Zinged into the blockhole on off stump. No real attempt to spin it and it seems that Voll has pre-meditated the sweep. She then tries to adjust but by then, it is too late. The ball sneaks under the toe-end of the bat and thunders into off stump. Smith roars in delight, and that is a big wicket, given how Voll had begun! 17/1
    6.1 in the air, and taken by Sutherland this time! Higham on the board straightaway! Dangles the carrot just outside off and Lamb bites. She hares down the track, looking to go downtown but is beaten in the flight. Has to thus reach out in front and drags it towards long on, where Sutherland makes no mistake! 44/2

    7.4 chopped on! Smith has two! Back of a length just outside off and this seems to come in with the arm (like it often does with Smith). Kelly wants to cut it away but has no room to work with whatsoever. The length is not that short either, and all she manages is an inside edge onto the stumps. Phoenix lose two in quick succession, and in a slight spot of bother now! 55/3
    9.2 oh dear - nothing is going right for the Birmingham Phoenix now! Full ball on the stumps. Kelly looks to drive it down the ground and scuffs it a little. The ball dribbles towards the bowler, who stretches out her right hand and gets fingertips to it. The ball then trundles into the stumps at the other end and Perry, backing up for the possibility of the single, is caught well short. An unfortunate way to get dismissed, but Perry, it must be noted, was holding on to her bat with both hands, which made getting back in time much tougher. Either way, Perry has to go now, and the Phoenix have lost half their side! 57/5
    8.3 holes out to long on, and the Phoenix are losing their way! This is in the slot on middle and off, and there to be hit. Jones takes up that challenge but does not show enough conviction. Does not hit it hard enough to clear long on, nor does she hit it wide enough to beat Sutherland. The Aussie all-rounder cruises to her right from long on and does the rest! 56/4

    10.1 caught on the fence again, and that is a really puzzling shot in the circumstances! Slowed up on a fullish length outside off. Lister advances and looks for the lofted shot. Does not go through with the stroke fully, though, and subsequently does not generate the desired power. Cross settles herself at long off and gobbles up the chance with glee! 59/6

    3.4 in the air, and taken! Arlott continues her purple patch today, and Perrin has to go! Zipped in very full on the pads. Perrin looks to flick it away but gets under it too much. Perhaps a little cramped for room as well and Kalis, running back from mid wicket, plucks a smart catch out of the sky over her right shoulder! 27/1
    9.1 big lbw appeal, but that may have pitched outside leg! Phoenix review! Floated up full and this seems to pitch just outside leg. It is the googly, meaning it turns away slightly and beats ADR on the sweep to ping her on the back leg. The only question here is where this pitched. If it pitched in line, it could be curtains for ADR. There are rumblings throughout, and no clear spike as the ball is next to the bat. No bat involved. Ball Tracking coming up now, and it reckons the ball just pitched in line. Going on to smash middle stump, and ADR has to go! 59/2
