- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR9.2 holes out to deep midwicket! Beaten in flight. Well bowled. Just dragged the length back a touch, Healy is out of the gates early down the track to launch but she wasn't quite to the pitch and gets it off the toe, dragging it to deep midwicket and it's an easy catch for Kerr 15m off the rope 71/22.5 clean bowled! Hit the top of off! Looked like another short ball outside leg, but it slid on with the arm and drifted across as Mooney tried to pull, it beats the inside edge and lights up the top of off. Great comeback 28/111.5 goes to sweep and misses it and off the pads, it lobs up behind her, Perry takes off for a run, thinking it went past any of the fielders, Gaze was quick to get rid of the stumps to run out Perry. 91/315.1 picks up the wicket of Gardner, the googly pitches outside the off stump and Gardner looks to cut, misses it and the off stump is pegged back. 114/514.6 down the track and misses it, was cramped to flick it through the onside, goes through and hits the leg stump. 114/418.1 down the track and looks to play straight but leaves a gap and goes through to knock the stumps, a googly. 134/717.5 looking for the big shot and perishes, on a good length and straight, you miss I hit, the stumps are rattled. 130/619.3 tossed up and looking to swing it away over the onside fence, a leading edge goes high in the air to short thirdman and Jonas settles under it and takes the catch. 142/1018.4 advances out of the crease and looks to swing it away, misses it and Gaze collects the ball and whips off the bails. Kerr picks up her third wicket. 138/818.5 and gets the fourth, Schutt comes and goes, moving slightly back and misses it, off the pad and goes to knock the stumps. 138/9Extras6 (b 1, w 5)TOTAL142 all out (19.3 Overs, RR: 7.28)Fall of wickets: 1-28 (Beth Mooney, 2.5 ov), 2-71 (Alyssa Healy, 9.2 ov), 3-91 (Ellyse Perry, 11.5 ov), 4-114 (Phoebe Litchfield, 14.6 ov), 5-114 (Ashleigh Gardner, 15.1 ov), 6-130 (Georgia Wareham, 17.5 ov), 7-134 (Tahlia McGrath, 18.1 ov), 8-138 (Sophie Molineux, 18.4 ov), 9-138 (Megan Schutt, 18.5 ov), 10-142 (Annabel Sutherland, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.1 and immediately she strikes, dances down the track and looks to go over the extra cover fielder, but Litchfield, moves to her left and times her jump perfectly to grab it above her head with both hands. 52/36.5 dragged on trying to sweep! Plimmer steps outside off and shows all three stumps. Wareham flighted it on middle, she tried to sweep and it comes off the bottom of the glove and runs onto leg stump 37/19.3 given lbw! Kerr reviews. She was down to sweep a delivery that was a good length and bouncing a touch. It definitely hit in line and there was no bat involved. Is it bouncing too much? There was a bit of turn too. Ball tracking has it hitting the top of leg. Good decision. Three reds. Kerr goes and burns a review. She tried to sweep the wrong length. Clever piece of bowling from Gardner to drag the length back 50/212.5 fuller outside the off stump, slices in the air behind point and Molineux jumps up nicely and plucks it out of the air. 66/414.1 down the track and misses as Halliday looks to go big down the ground, Gardner tosses up on a length in line with the stumps and knocks it. 73/518.5 hits in the air down the ground and Sutherland running in takes the catch at long on. It was tossed up full and wider, Green had to fetch it. 108/619.6 slower and shorter, pulled around to deep midwicket, coming back for the second run, the throw to Sutherland and runs out Tahuhu. 113/7Extras7 (lb 1, nb 3, w 3)TOTAL113/7 (20 Overs, RR: 5.65)Fall of wickets: 1-37 (Georgia Plimmer, 6.5 ov), 2-50 (Amelia Kerr, 9.3 ov), 3-52 (Suzie Bates, 10.1 ov), 4-66 (Sophie Devine, 12.5 ov), 5-73 (Brooke Halliday, 14.1 ov), 6-108 (Maddy Green, 18.5 ov), 7-113 (Lea Tahuhu, 19.6 ov)
