8.21pm Well, that's part one nailed on for England. South Africa limited to a sub-par 111 for 9, with Laura Wolvaardt's 55 from 49 finding no support at all. Brunt was magnificent, fast and straight, as was Issy Wong on debut - wicketless but threatening. Ecclestone claimed two, Glenn was economical, Sciver chipped in with a scalp too and fine catch. A good outing, and a "ultra-aggressive" batting line-up to come.

Brunt to Wolvaardt, OUT, sits back on the pull but that's an outstanding take from Sciver! Throwing herself forward to a well-timed strike at deep midwicket, and clinging on low. Marital bliss at Chelmsford, and Brunt has four!
