    Jodi Grewcock is the new batter.

    She blocks the remaining four balls of Kalea Moore's over.

    That is the breakthrough that Stars really needed.

    It may be too late. Cordelia Griffith has taken the game away from them.

    What a catch!

    Griffith can't believe it. She's hesitant but has to tuck her bat under arm and head back.

    I think she thought that was a bump ball.

    She questioned the umpire who kindly points her back to the dugout.

    A massive moment for Stars, but Cordelia Griffith is furious.

    She quite simply doesn't think she is out here.

    Kalea Moore held one outside off stump to tempt Griffith into a drive.

    It is uppish and is caught at extra cover by Paige Scholfield - or is it?

    Griffith definitely doesn't think that carried but the finger goes off and she'll have to drag herself off.

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 85-1

    Cordelia Griffith's sweeps finely to the boundary and normal programming has returned.

    Grace Scrivens follows that up with a timed back-foot drive for four more.

    Griffith and Scrivens have put on 79 for the second wicket and can afford to wait for the bad balls.

  6. Postpublished at 15 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 76-1

    Only three runs from the last 16 balls.

    Another tight over from Kalea Moore and perhaps the tide is starting to turn.

  7. Postpublished at 14 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 75-1

    Dani Gregory only goes for one in her first over.

    That's more like it for Stars.

  8. 'She looks in serious nick'published at 14:40 British Summer Time 21 September

    What a knock from Cordelia Griffith!

    She has sailed away to 50 off just 54 balls and is looking into some serious nick.

    Stars will have to produce something special here.

  9. 50 runs

    50 for Cordelia Griffthpublished at 13 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 74-1

    Cordelia Griffith moves to a fourth fifty in five innings.

    It has been one of the most attractive 50 you could ever wish to see.

    All 10 of her boundaries - including the most recent through the covers - have come off the middle of the bat and raced to the rope.

    She has put her team in a seriously good position to win the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy.

  10. Postpublished at 12 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 69-1

    Ryana MacDonald-Gay drops one short and Grace Scrivens rocks back and middles one to the boundary.

    That was just the Sunrisers captain's second boundary, she has largely been getting out of Cordelia Griffith's way.

    Stars desperately need a wicket.

  11. Postpublished at 11 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 58-1

    Kalea Moore into the attack. She was presented with a 50th appearance cap before play.

    A very tidy start for her, only two runs off it.

    A straight over which offers nothing easy to score off.

  12. Powerplay overpublished at 10 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 56-1

    The new ball doesn't have too much immediate effect, although only two runs off the Ryana Macdonald-Gay over.

    Stars were 47-3 at the end of the 10 over powerplay, Sunrisers are ahead on runs and have lost fewer wickets.

  13. Postpublished at 9.2 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 159-1

    Stars are fed up with seeing this ball get hammered to the boundary.

    Bryony Smith throws it to umpire Jack Shantry, and decides Cordelia Griffiths has knocked it out of shape.

    A new ball from Shantry's end.

  14. 'They will looking to RHG for some magic'published at 14:24 British Summer Time 21 September

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 54-1

    Chloe Brewer
    Central Sparks batter on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Stars will be relying on Ryana MacDonald-Gay here.

    She has taken 21 wickets in the competition and they will be looking to her to create some magic.

  15. 50 up for Sunriserspublished at 9 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 54-1

    Another over, another stunning Cordelia Griffith boundary.

    She chooses the cover drive to treat us this time.

    This is a masterclass.

    50 up for Sunrisers, Griffith into the 40s.

  16. Postpublished at 8 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 48-1

    Cordelia Griffith is on fire!

    Her straight drive off Ryana Macdonald-Gay is the shot of the day. Just an elegant shot, played perfectly.

    Stars have already cycled through four bowlers, and other than Tilly Corteen-Coleman there hasn't been a great deal of control.

  17. 'She's hitting it so hard!'published at 14:14 British Summer Time 21 September

    Cordelia Griffith is in such fine touch.

    She is not missing out on anything served up to her.

    She's hitting it so hard!

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 42-1

    Sunrisers are well ahead of the rate already.

    Phoebe Franklin is tricky to face when she pitches it up, but when she loses her length it is much easier.

    She goes too short twice and Cordelia Griffith pulls her to the ropes twice, she goes too full and Griffith swings through midwicket.

    Six boundaries already for Griffith in her 32.

  19. Postpublished at 6 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 30-1

    Cordelia Griffiths is once again cursing the prowess of the fielders - this time Alice Davidson-Richards at mid-on.

    But instead of feeling sorry for herself, she belts another shot through the covers.

    She is up to 19 and monopolising the strike from Grace Scrivens.

  20. Postpublished at 5 overs

    South East Stars 212 v Sunrisers 22-1

    Phoebe Franklin comes into the attack - she is a proper bounder of a bowler.

    Cordelia Griffith tries to attack her but either can't get her timing (a chop back past her stumps) or can't beat the fielders (a nailed cover drive straight at extra cover).

    It ends up with just a single.

    A good start from Franklin.
