5.50pm So, that's your lot for now. But the men's match is coming up imminently. Don't stray too far!
Marie Kelly is the Match Hero: "Having a consistent role has been great, I feel fully backed, I was waiting for an innings like that to come together. Be nice and aggressive and put the bowlers off. Staying a bit more still, back to basics, strong along the ground. I love batting at Headingley that wicket excites me. I like being in the action in the deep. Glad the catches stuck!"
5.41pm A powerful display from Superchargers, who are level on points with Southern Brave at the top of the table, and could be headed straight for Lord's if Brave trip up tomorrow. A superb batting display led by Marie Kelly was backed up by a pounding display from the bowlers in the Powerplay, and not even a deeply ropey fielding display could save Fire from a heavy loss. Kate Cross was superb as ever, leading the line alongside Lucy Higham, with Ballinger and ADR in the wickets too.
