5:41pm Right, that's all from us here. But the men are getting underway in just under 50 minutes over this way. Join us
5:37pm Not for the first time, the Meerkat Match Hero is Marizanne Kapp, for 3 for 8 and a chase-sealing 24*: "Look I had flashbacks to the game we played here two years ago, which was similar conditions. Just happy to get over the line today.
[On being there at the end, again]: "I've been playing for 15 years so I probably should be doing that. Having been in that situation a lot of times for all the franchises I've played for around the world, it helps a lot. Today was too stressful, but happy to go through."

Gardner to Kapp, 2 runs, Tucked around the corner, but there's a misfield at square leg! Will they come back for a second... They do! Oval Invincibles are through to the knockout stages! Trent Rockets are out! Tense at the end but, on balance, the better team won. That means it's an all-London affair for The Eliminator with Invincibles against London Spirit!

Now then... Villiers on strike with Gardner to bowl her last five. 7 needed off 10.
