- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.1 Voll's disappointing season comes to an end! Hard length ball angling away outside off, gets down on one knee and tries to hammer it straight over the bowler's head, miscues in the air to backward point for a regulation catch. 6/16.3 Caught at long off! Generously flighted fuller length ball pitching outside off, skips down and tries to play inside-out over the covers, did not get enough elevation to clear the ropes, places it straight into the hands of the long off fielder 38/28.2 Caught and bowled! Slower through the air length ball with a hint of turn; the ball held on the pitch as Jones moves onto the back foot to play it across the line, beaten by the flight and playing down the wrong line, closing the face of the bat early and chipping it back to the bowler. 49/310.4 Beaten by a peach! Beaten all ends up with the flight and turn, charges down the track to play it inside-out, plays down the wrong line and is caught outside the crease by the wicketkeeper, swift glovework from Threlkeld to clip off the bails. 64/416.4 tighter line and length ball poked to the on-side, wants a quick single, but Lamb refuses. Excellent game awareness from Gardner! She moves to her right side and collects the ball cleanly, sends a bullet throw at the striker's end and hits the timber! Kelly was heading back towards her crease in a slow fashion and did not expect the throw at her end. 93/518.5 Lister departs! Tossed up length ball outside off, shimmies down the track and tries to heave it away, finds the leading edge and chips an easy catch to backward point. 114/6Extras4 (b 1, nb 2, w 1)TOTAL123/6 (20 Overs, RR: 6.15 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-6 (Georgia Voll, 1.1 ov), 2-38 (Ellyse Perry, 6.3 ov), 3-49 (Amy Jones, 8.2 ov), 4-64 (Sterre Kalis, 10.4 ov), 5-93 (Marie Kelly, 16.4 ov), 6-114 (Ailsa Lister, 18.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.1 Played on with a brilliant yorker! Slower yorker on the base of the off stump, moves away from the wicket and tries to shovel it away, connects the under-edge and bounces on the bounce, hits the top of off. All happened in slow motion, and Bryony Smith couldn't believe it! 13/18.2 Scrivens has holed out! Tossed up fuller length ball in the slot, slight deviation and held on the pitch, plays the heave stroke over on-side and does not quite get hold of it. Long on fielder comes around and completes the catch 59/212.5 Chips it to extra cover! That's a massive wicket! Back of a length ball with a hint of turn outside off, NSB charges it through the covers, failed to keep it down, struck it well with the middle part of the bat but hits it straight to extra cover at the edge of the cricle. 102/411.5 Fifth leg cutter in a row, and this time gets the breakthrough! Full and overpitched ball down the leg-side, closes the face of the bat a bit too early as Gardner attempts to flick it away over the on-side and skies it high towards square leg. Lister comes forward sprinting in from the ropes, covers her ground, and takes a breathtaking low catch diving forward! 92/314.2 Brett strikes with a loosener delivery! Tossed up loose full toss ball on the stumps, leans forward and picks it up with the full swing of the bat, clips it away towards mid wicket, Lister comes around and gobbles it up. 107/514.5 Flighted length ball on the stumps, gets down on one knee and plays the paddle, misses the line of the ball and thuds the top right of the front pad, and a massive appeal is turned down. Quick chat between Jones, Perry and Brett. Perry decides to send it upstairs. Ultra Edge confirmed no bat is involved. Ball tracking is coming up, pitching and impact in line, hitting the middle-leg stump. The decision needs to be reversed, and the Phoenix fielders are pumped up! 109/618.1 Edged and taken! What a turn of events out there! It was a back of a length ball slightly kept low outside off, King hangs back deep inside the crease, deceived by the leg cutter of Schutz, and plays the square cut and outside edges to Jones behind the stumps, who was standing up near the stumps and takes a brilliant grab! 119/7Extras13 (nb 6, w 7)TOTAL126/7 (19.2 Overs, RR: 6.49 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-13 (Bryony Smith, 2.1 ov), 2-59 (Grace Scrivens, 8.2 ov), 3-92 (Ashleigh Gardner, 11.5 ov), 4-102 (Nat Sciver-Brunt, 12.5 ov), 5-107 (Heather Graham, 14.2 ov), 6-109 (Eleanor Threlkeld, 14.5 ov), 7-119 (Alana King, 18.1 ov)
