- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR9.1 Round the wicket, tossed up nicely on middle, skips down and plays it straight like an arrow, bowler gets a hand on it and the non-striker was out of her crease, unlucky, not a pretty sight when a batter gets out like that, a subdued celebration from Dean 74/115.4 Much-needed breakthrough for London; that one just ripped through the stumps, drops short from round the wicket and it drifts in late at middle, bounced steeply and she fails to sweep that one but nevertheless an enterprising knock, stuck to her methods and put pressure with her pyrotechnics 121/314.3 Over the wicket, looped up on middle, premeditates and inverses her stance to plonk it over backward point and finds Dean who takes the simplest of the catches, wanted to accelerate and looked to manufacture a boundary, just couldn't get the requisite elevation 116/218.5 Holes out to deep square, fullish at leg, she accepts the offer and goes for a big booming slog sweep and finds fielder in the deep, long boundary there, hit pretty well but just not enough distance, has to go 149/419.5 Steps away to the leg side, good length speared into her pads, whipped away to left of deep square, King falls while trying to sneak in another run, she was trying to sprint but the body wasn't ready, ugly way to get out 158/5Extras11 (lb 2, nb 2, w 7)TOTAL158/5 (20 Overs, RR: 7.9 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-74 (Bryony Smith, 9.1 ov), 2-116 (Nat Sciver-Brunt, 14.3 ov), 3-121 (Grace Scrivens, 15.4 ov), 4-149 (Ashleigh Gardner, 18.5 ov), 5-158 (Alana King, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.3 She has got the big fish! Comes down the track to smother the spin and ends up ballooning it to mid-on who takes the simples of the catches gleefully and arms out in celebration, King makes an impact right-away. Huuuuuuuge wicket 34/34.2 Strong start, right on money, lobbed up and it goes on with the arm towards leg-stump, she couldn't swing that away to midwicket and sees her stumps rearranged, that is beautiful bowling, saw her shimming to the leg side, tossed it on a hard length and got it to straighten a bit, not giving room and following her initial movement, produces magic straightaway 21/14.3 Oh dear me, what drama! Over the wicket this time, floated up on back of a length outside off, spins back a touch from wide of off and bounces prodigiously, she comes down the track and lost her balance, outside the crease, didn't connect and keeper keeps her eyes locked on the ball, brilliant quick stumping, Gardner on fire and on a hattrick! 21/212.3 Tremendous riposte! Bowls a teasing legbreak, turning away from off, she tries a difficult shot, tries to drag it across the line with a sweep and the ball takes the outside edge and lands into the hands of short fine, massive breakthrough, high risk can lead to a dismissal 77/510.2 Vociferous appeal for an lbw and given without any hesitation! That spun back sharply from outside off and she couldn't connect her flick, flummoxed by the late turn. Review taken. Hawk-eye predicts it would have hit the leg-stump, the dangerous player starts to take the long walk back to the pavilion. That looked stone dead in real time, desperate review. 63/416.4 Whippy pull straight into the hands of Katie at deep midwicket who hangs onto it brilliantly, shot was on, it's slipping away quickly from Spirit, lunged forward for a slog-sweep and didn't quite nail it. King gets her third, good work at the office 106/619.4 Low full-toss wide of off, slapped to Gardner at extra cover who pings a sharp throw at non-striker's end and the batter is way short of her crease, you can get run-out on a free-hit 126/7Extras9 (lb 1, nb 2, w 6)TOTAL127/7 (20 Overs, RR: 6.35 per 6 ball)Fall of wickets: 1-21 (Georgia Redmayne, 4.2 ov), 2-21 (Cordelia Griffith, 4.3 ov), 3-34 (Meg Lanning, 6.3 ov), 4-63 (Danielle Gibson, 10.2 ov), 5-77 (Heather Knight, 12.3 ov), 6-106 (Charlie Dean, 16.4 ov), 7-126 (Eva Gray, 19.4 ov)
