    34.3 wiped high and handsome over midwicket... but she's not got enough on this one! Connects well, but Armitage is right back on the rope and makes no mistake! The spin twins combine to scalp the big one! 165/5

    23.5 a flash at a wide one, and an edge through to the keeper! Bess Heath does well to cling on, right up to the stumps, and McCaughan's impressive effort is over. She only turned 18 yesterday... watch this space! 100/1

    31.1 the breakthrough comes via a rank long-hop! A grotesque half-tracker from Armitage, Bouchier could have picked any spot on the leg side, but battered a rushed slog into the hands on mid-on! A crucial breakthrough, just as Vipers were threatening to bite! 150/2

    32.3 pinned in front and suddenly Diamonds are back in it! Looping onto a full length, Dean drops to her knee to sweep, and is beaten by the turn. Might it have done too much? Probably still clipping off, but it's two quick wickets to redress the balance! 155/3

    33.4 flicked in the air, loose on the toes, and a simple chip to midwicket! A dolly to Campbell and the Diamonds are ecstatic! Spin has turned this innings on its head! 158/4

    48.5 clipped to mid-on and it's a direct hit! These are usually out, Kalis with the pick-up-and-throw, and she's way short! The end of a battling knock, but another timely breakthrough! 220/9

    36.1 down on the sweep and another one goes! Cramped for room, both on line and the full length, a tangle of limbs ensues, and up goes the finger! This is a calamity collapse! 172/6

    42.1 confusion in the running, and another one goes! Flapped to point, a fatal hesitation as Norris is caught ball-watching, the throw to the non-striker's end is accurate enough and Langston keeps her cool to get rid of the bails! 188/7

    42.6 very full length, tight line on off stump, no footwork as a defensive drive is scuffed to the keeper. The free-fall continues! 191/8

    7.2 and there's the breakthrough! The bowling change works as Winfield-Hill throws the bat at it and manages only to spoon it to cover, where Emily Windsor takes a comfortable catch. That's a big wicket for the Vipers 36/1

    14.1 shorter ball outside off, she swings at it and succeeds only in getting an edge which travels straight to Charlie Dean at point. Another key wicket for the Vipers 74/2

    36.2 Taylor is unstoppbable! Kalis took her on but picked out Adams at mid-on. You have to hand it to Kalis, she gave it her best to reach her third half-century in as many matches, but Charlotte Taylor has a sixth wicket and that could very well spell the end for the Diamonds 172/9

    15.1 that took a while and it was a tight call but Ami Campbell is run out. The ball was fired into the non-striker's end by Lauren Bell and Dean managed to break the stumps just before Campbell made her ground trying to get back. She was well down the wicket as Kalis shouted no! 78/3

    34.4 and Taylor does it again! Charlotte weaves a web of destruction, claiming her five-for and breaking up the Kalis-Langston union that was giving the Diamonds a sniff with one that strikes the pad as she drops to one knee and shapes to sweep 159/8

    42.2 and there it is, the Vipers are winers of the inaugural Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy! Graham goes big and she lofts the ball high as Paige Scholfield runs to mid-on to claim the catch at second grab 193/9
