- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.3 Picks out fine-leg who didn't have to move a muscle to gobble that up! Jockeys across off and ramps it straight Kelly who takes a sharp catch, that was an interesting idea but she couldn't hit it up and over the fielder, goes after a promising start, she had to accelerate 74/26.3 Superchargers draw first blood! Back of a length delivery at middle, just a stand and deliver pull and it goes straight to Smith at deep square, she plucks it out of thin air and breaks the ominous partnership, much-needed for breakthrough for Superchargers but what a fabulous enterprising knock from Scrivens 47/112.2 Tremendous riposte, sticks to her guns, tossed up fuller on middle, she lunges forward in a bid to flick it away and ends up getting a leading edge that balloons up and Smith takes the simplest of the catches, has got a big smile on her face, another wicket goes down. Northern have made a fantastic recovery 87/312.3 Two-in-two! Round the wicket, floated up a petal on middle, just kept going with the arm, she chips it in the air and fielder at extra cover inside the circle times her jump to perfection, takes a screamer as she looks disconsolate after playing a loose shot, another vital breakthrough, producing magic time and again 87/418.1 Vociferous appeal for an lbw and the finger is up! Came in front of the stumps to heave it over leg-side but got pinned in front, flummoxed by the late inward movement, doesn't bother with the review even though I think it was worth taking a second look, might have missed leg stump. it was missing leg-stump as confirmed by the review 114/5Extras10 (lb 3, nb 6, w 1)TOTAL123/5 (20 Overs, RR: 6.15 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-47 (Grace Scrivens, 6.3 ov), 2-74 (Bryony Smith, 10.3 ov), 3-87 (Ashleigh Gardner, 12.2 ov), 4-87 (Heather Graham, 12.3 ov), 5-114 (Katie George, 18.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.4 Oh, no! That has been the pattern of the innings for Superchargers so far, it was a length ball at middle, she stayed firmly rooted back her in crease, trying to lift i over mid-on, Scrivens swallows it down her throat, reverse-cupped it and it's another vital breakthrough for Trent Rockets. 32/32.4 Traps her lbw! Sleight of hand befuddles her, subtle variation undid her, tossed up on a length and turning away ever so slightly, she plants her front leg and shapes for a sweep, that looked plumb in real time, not sending upstairs. 18/13.2 Massive appeal for lbw from bowler, keeper and first slip. That skidded through the surface on a fuller length, she went for an audacious reverse sweep and missed it. Close to the glove. The review has been taken. Was it missing leg? Ball tracking coming up, there was nothing on ultra-edge. Pitching in line, more than half hitting the leg-stump and that's a spot on review. Trent Rockets on fire, they get another big fish! Spinners have done a fabulous job, too much risk not really reaping rewards for Superchargers 22/29.4 Trying to hit her into next week and holes out to deep square, it's that girl again, King in the deep is safe a house in the outfield, straight into her hands as Superchargers collapse like a house of cards, not going anywhere at the moment. Easiest of catches 54/75.1 Wily campaigner Alana King into the attack. Bowls a scorching legbreak and it has landed on the perfect spot at a length and turned away sharply to ping the top of off, that is an excellent delivery. Bess Heath couldn't do anything about it, that was spinning, ripping, gripping, shaking, popping, and a rocking leg-break. Ball of the tournament! 32/45.5 Whoa, she is on fire! Superchargers in dire straits, staring into the abyss. King kicks the air in jubilation, what an opening five set of deliveries, tossed up and gets plenty of turn outside off, draws an outside edge and it's taken sharply by the keeper, very good catch, was high and swirling away from her, sharp piece of glovework 34/59.2 Short of a length outside off, pulled across the line to deep midwicket and it's a dodgy call for a second, she is struggling and puts in a full-length dive and even that didn't save her, just a few inches short of the crease, that's the last thing Superchargers needed. Excellent throw from George, pounced on it and got ride of the ball very quickly, keeper collected it one bounce and removed the zingers in a flash, excellent work all-around. 53/612.2 Wickets continue to tumble, touch fuller on middle, tries to go big and clear long-on but finds N S-Brunt who takes a simple chance. Just didn't get the elevation and requisite force to clear the ropes, tough to get underneath as she speared it quicker and couldn't hit it straighter 64/819.2 Zips in and rattles her stumps! Flummoxes her with a well-disguised slower back of a length nip-backer, she skips down, trying to smoke her out of the park and ends up missing it altogether. Stellar bowling display from Trent Rockets who were challenged a bit but never looked in trouble. Superchargers kept losing wickets at regular intervals and nobody converted their starts to something substantial or threatened to take the game away. No show from middle-order in particular. Nat Sciver-Brunt kept a lid by just conceding 19 in 17 balls and picked two wickets. King changed the complexion, pegging them back in the first over and picked two wickets in her 20 balls while Heather Graham got three wickets. Largely been toothless batting and a chaotic attempt to chase it down, falling short by 20 runs in the end. 103/1017.3 Wrecked the stumps! Round the wicket, hits the hard length and doesn't offer much pace to clobber a pull, she wanders down leg and the ball sneaks through the gate to rattle the stumps. Just one wicket left in the tank. 97/9Extras9 (b 4, lb 1, w 4)TOTAL103 all out (19.2 Overs, RR: 5.3 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-18 (Marie Kelly, 2.4 ov), 2-22 (Phoebe Litchfield, 3.2 ov), 3-32 (Hollie Armitage, 4.4 ov), 4-32 (Bess Heath, 5.1 ov), 5-34 (Georgia Wareham, 5.5 ov), 6-53 (Alice Davidson-Richards, 9.2 ov), 7-54 (Annabel Sutherland, 9.4 ov), 8-64 (Kate Cross, 12.2 ov), 9-97 (Linsey Smith, 17.3 ov), 10-103 (Lucy Higham, 19.2 ov)
