- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.3 four, four, out! Shafali falls third ball. Excellent diving catch at short midwicket by Alice Davidson-Richards. On a length and Shafali rocked back to pull. But she didn't quite get it out of the screws, and AD-R managed to hold on 8/118.5 shimmies down the pitch, and picks out the Wolf on the rope! Looked to go again down the ground, swinging high and mighty, but straight down Wolvaardt's throat. Good comeback from Levick after the second ball of the set disappeared for six 138/42.5 swings a low full toss straight to mid-on! No more than a cameo for the skipper. Shimmied down the pitch against but you need a strong base against the full-bunger. Jones can't commit fully to the shot and only mistimes it to the Wolf at mid-on 33/211.4 tossed up, Mack is struck in front on the sweep, and Harris gives her out! Mack doesn't bother with the review. Full and straight, smashed on the pad on the half-volley. Ball-tracking say... umpire's call on impact and trimming off stump. 90/3Extras8 (b 5, lb 1, w 2)TOTAL147/4 (20 Overs, RR: 7.35 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-8 (Shafali Verma, 0.3 ov), 2-33 (Amy Jones, 2.5 ov), 3-90 (Katie Mack, 11.4 ov), 4-138 (Eve Jones, 18.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR12.1 sliced high over backward point... brilliantly taken by Eve Jones! Wong goes charging off in celebration, Phoenix have finally grabbed one and given themselves a glimmer! Big top edge from a short ball but Jones had a lot of work to do running around from third, she dived full length and clung on for dear life 97/23.3 launched... straight to deep midwicket! Only two boundary-riders but they were out there, not a percentage shot from Rodrigues. She walks off with an anguished look on her face. Superchargers won't be able to rely on their Indian pocket rocket today 30/115.5 full toss but she picks out long-on! Set herself for the big hit but it came off the toe of the bat and never looked like clearing Franklin. Wolvaardt was set but hadn't found the ropes in a while... Phoenix squeezing at the right time 111/316.1 Arlott yorks her! Two in two, Kimmince departs and Phoenix are suddenly aflame...! Pinpoint on middle and leg, so precisely bowled that is grazes the toe of the bat and skids along the turf into the timbers. Arlott is mobbed by her team-mates and suddenly the wind is blowing only one way! 111/417.4 Davidson-Richards comes down and is stranded! Beaten by a little extra bounce as she swung across the line, nowhere near the pitch and Jones has time to count a couple of beats before completing the stumping 119/519.4 clothed to mid-off, Wong closing this out! Full toss, may have been an offcutter, and Smith gets it right off the toe of the bat, easily pouched by Franklin backpedalling from the edge of the circle 132/6Extras7 (lb 4, w 3)TOTAL133/6 (20 Overs, RR: 6.65 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-30 (Jemimah Rodrigues, 3.3 ov), 2-97 (Lauren Winfield-Hill, 12.1 ov), 3-111 (Laura Wolvaardt, 15.5 ov), 4-111 (Laura Harris, 16.1 ov), 5-119 (Alice Davidson-Richards, 17.4 ov), 6-132 (Linsey Smith, 19.4 ov)
