- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.5 edged, brilliant catch at the second grab! A blinder from Martin up to the stumps. Length ball outside off, Healy has a big swing. It's a decent nick. Martin parries at first, keeps her cool and holds the rebound 19/110.5 Lanning is run out! This was a half volley outside off, Mooney drives straight to cover and called it off the bat. Lanning was always struggling. Didn't even need the direct hit. Martin had plenty of time to gather it 69/218.2 sliced to point...slightly shorter, all the pace off the ball, Haynes aims to go square and a somewhat laboured innings comes to an end 118/319 high in the air, taken...full outside off, Gardner has a big swing across the line and it just goes straight up.

This was short outside off, she nailed her square drive but it was straight at Mooney at point. Didn't go in cleanly, but grabs the rebound. Phew, what an over of action 81/33 straight to cover! Perry strikes. Full outside off, Jensen trying to go over the off side but gets nowhere near enough of it 14/16.1 straight to deep midwicket! Massive moment. Carey round the wicket, a full delivery angled in at the stumps, Satterthwaite flicks it strongly and couldn't have picked out the fielder any better 27/217 that's huge! The yorker gets through. Kerr coming down the pitch, plays over the top of the inswinger, takes the base of off stump 101/615.5 taken at mid-on...came down the pitch, aiming a huge shot straight down the ground but it just goes straight up 97/416.5 skewed high into the off side, Healy doesn't drop this...Halliday aiming something big over the off side, slices across the ball 101/5Extras4 (lb 1, nb 1, w 2)TOTAL131/6 (20 Overs, RR: 6.55)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Hayley Jensen, 2.6 ov), 2-27 (Amy Satterthwaite, 6.1 ov), 3-81 (Frances Mackay, 11.6 ov), 4-97 (Katey Martin, 15.5 ov), 5-101 (Brooke Halliday, 16.5 ov), 6-101 (Amelia Kerr, 16.6 ov)
