- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.6 caught behind! Beautifully bowled outswinger. Just dragged the length back a fraction, not quite a half volley, it shapes late, she tries to drive on the up and gets a thin edge through to the keeper. Easy catch for Sidra Nawaz. Great start by Diana Baig. 4/14.2 dragged on! 104kph, length ball wide of off and she tried to drive on the up! The dot balls were mounting. There was width on offer and she threw the hands at it but the bounce wasn't quite what she expected and she dragged it onto the stumps off the bottom edge. Baig rolled the fingers down the side of it for a cutter. Well bowled 17/212.2 loopy full toss hit straight to long off! A 62kph, loopy full toss outside off, Kapp's eyes lit up, she swung hard and hit it well but didn't get the elevation and hit it straight to Iram Javed at long off who took the catch easily. That was a big mistake from Kapp 64/49.6 dragged on trying to reverse sweep! Clever bowling. She slowed the pace up even more, tossed it outside off, de Preez tried to reverse sweep but was through the shot, she dragged it off the bottom of the glove, onto pad and onto the stumps! 54/316.5 top edge caught behind square! She stepped outside off, to try and sweep a length ball over backward square with the two fielders inside the circle, but it comes off the top edge and flies straight up, two fielders get under in but Umaima Sohail takes control and takes the catch easily 102/519.2 Aliya Riaz takes a stunner at wide long on! Tossed up in the arc, she tried to slog sweep but got under it and dragged it to wide long on, Aliya has a long way to run in and to her right from her position on the rope, at full stretch diving forward she hangs on with two hands. Sensational catch 124/6Extras6 (lb 1, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL136/6 (20 Overs, RR: 6.8)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Lizelle Lee, 0.6 ov), 2-17 (Dane van Niekerk, 4.2 ov), 3-54 (Mignon du Preez, 9.6 ov), 4-64 (Marizanne Kapp, 12.2 ov), 5-102 (Sune Luus, 16.5 ov), 6-124 (Chloe Tryon, 19.2 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.5 caught at mid on! 119kph, short ball banged in, angled across, she tried to pull again but because of the angle across she couldn't extend the arms and middle it, she miscues and it floats to mid off. Easy catch for Khaka 18/110.4 Javeria run out at the non striker's! Full and drifting into middle, Aliyah drives firmly back at the bowler, Tryon gets down to field but it comes off her hand and rolls onto the stumps before Javeria can't get back! She walks back looking at the heavens. She can't believe it 55/44.3 Umaima Sohail is run out! A mix up. Full on off, she drives straight to Wolvaardt at cover and runs. Javeria Khan doesn't move. She doesn't think there is a run in it. There probably wasn't but the pressure was building. Wolvaardt gathers and throws to Chetty, it was an awkward take but she did well and Umaima was left stranded mid pitch 18/26.4 plumb lbw! A short leg break, slower, Dar rocked back to pull but it shot low on this low pitch, she got through the shot and played over it and was hit on the back leg plumb infront of off. A very straight forward decision for the umpire 26/314.3 clean bowled! Sidra Nawaz stepped way outside off, trying to sweep again, exposed all three stumps, it skidded on with the arm after pitching, she misses it and it clatters into leg stump 72/5Extras9 (b 1, lb 4, w 4)TOTAL119/5 (20 Overs, RR: 5.95)Fall of wickets: 1-18 (Muneeba Ali, 3.5 ov), 2-18 (Omaima Sohail, 4.3 ov), 3-26 (Nida Dar, 6.4 ov), 4-55 (Javeria Khan, 10.4 ov), 5-72 (Sidra Nawaz, 14.3 ov)
