- BATSMENRB4s6sSR7.1 misread the length and tries to pull a length ball off the back foot and missed it altogether. The ball snaked through to castle the stumps. Big blow. 63/24.6 gone! Disaster. Length ball on middle, Punia nudges to square leg and Dottin facies a run but sent back by her partner. Sharmin Akhter patrolling out there cracks at the stumps and Dottin is not even in the frame 50/111.2 loud cry and given. Harleen calls for a review. It was pitched full on stumps, tried to sweep, missed and wore on the front pad. Replay confirms no bat, it has pitched in line and hits around the shin. Three reds and she has to go. 100/318.6 length ball on off, tucked to long-on and Harmanpreet scampered back for the blind second run. Fielder rockets to the keeper and gone 160/714.3 tossed up and finds cover. Sane Luus gets on the front foot and tries to go up and over cover but miscues it completely. No elevation and Renuka out there gobbled an easy catch 121/415.3 Salma gets another one. Alana King waltz down a bit and tries to over cover, no elevation yet again and finds skipper Smriti Mandhana at cover 128/518.4 dances down the track but was deceived in the air. Pooja on the move tries to clear long-on but was nowhere to the pitch of the ball. It dipped and turned to catch the edge, Richa completes an easy catch 155/619.1 saw the shimmy and drops it short. Ecclestone on the move missed the ball and it struck on the front pad. Not out called and Smriti calls for a review. Pitched in line and hitting the stumps 160/819.4 nudged towards backward square leg and Meghna scampers back for a suicidal second run. Richa collects the ball on the bounce and whips the bails off 163/919.6 flatter on stumps, looks to play the flick off the back foot, thuds on the pad and another easy decision.

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR7.2 what a catch.. Priya Punia once again. Fuller on stumps, Smriti tries to clear mi-off but doesn't get the elevation. Priya out there dives forward as the ball was dipping on her and takes a lovely catch 63/24.6 this is good planning.. Long-on dropped back and short third came in and asked HK to go over cover. Line was just outside off but she was undone by the length there. Shuffles to leg and tries to go over cover, loses her shape and nicks one to the keeper 39/113.5 Supernovas are all over the Trailblazers. Jemimah makes room and slaps towards deep cover. Harleen patrolling the fence there dives forward and takes a lovely catch. 86/87.5 what has happened there? That's an action reply of Smriti's dismissal. Sophia Dunkley charges down the track in pursuit of going over mid-off but yet again another batter fails to get the elevation. Priya once again hares to her left and takes a good catch 65/38.4 Alana King gets her first. Sharmin Akhter needlessly runs down the wicket without getting a proper sight of the wicket. The ball snakes underneath the bat and rattles the stumps 67/410.2 Length on off, Richa makes room to slap though the point region but does it aerially. Dottin out there pockets a dolly 72/510.3 what is happening to this chase? Arm ball, gets an inside edge and Arundati had no clue where the ball was. Left her crease for the run but the ball just trickled to Taniya who whips the bails off 72/611.5 Pooja gets her fourth.. Full toss on off stump, Salma nonchalantly lofts one straight to Sophie Ecclestone at cover. 73/716.2 down the track, gets low and slogs but finds Harleen at midwicket region. Trailblazers are nine down 94/9Extras7 (lb 4, w 3)TOTAL114/9 (20 Overs, RR: 5.7)Fall of wickets: 1-39 (Hayley Matthews, 4.6 ov), 2-63 (Smriti Mandhana, 7.2 ov), 3-65 (Sophia Dunkley, 7.5 ov), 4-67 (Sharmin Akhter, 8.4 ov), 5-72 (Richa Ghosh, 10.2 ov), 6-72 (Arundhati Reddy, 10.3 ov), 7-73 (Salma Khatun, 11.5 ov), 8-86 (Jemimah Rodrigues, 13.5 ov), 9-94 (Poonam Yadav, 16.2 ov)
