    That is very out!

    Jodi Grewcock's final ball of the day hits the top of Moore's front pad. Hitting middle of middle.

    Grewcock finishes with 2-60.

    South East Stars 202-7 v Sunrisers

    Grace Scrivens lets loose a big appeal for leg before but not given. Leg bye.

    Four more dots from Scrivens.

    Jodi Grewcock is in for her final over.

    That's more like it!

    Alice Davidson-Richards dances down the wicket and plonks the ball way straight back over the bowler's head for the first six of the day.

    "Davidson-Richards hits it over the head of Grewcock. You see it time and time again on TV screens in international cricket and now we have seen it right here in Leicester."

    South East Stars 192-7 v Sunrisers

    A good chase in the deep from Cordelia Griffith restricts Kalea Moore to two as Jodi Grewcock continues.

    Three dots to finish. Another six balls without a boundary.

    The last four came midway through the 31st over.

  5. When will Stars launch?published at 41 overs

    South East Stars 188-7 v Sunrisers

    Grace Scrivens serves up a no-ball and Stars have a free hit.

    Alice Davidson-Richards swats it firmly into the legside but it's fielded in the deep.

    Three more singles, but no boundaries.

    The Sunrisers skipper has conceded just 17 runs from her six overs.

    South East Stars 182-7 v Sunrisers

    Two more singles move Alice Davidson-Richards on to 73

    It seems an age since her last boundary.

    Kalea Moore survives a big lbw appeal from the final ball of Jodi Grewcock's over. It looked close. Going down leg perhaps.

    Three from the over. The squeeze continues.

    Ten to go.

  7. Postpublished at 39 overs

    South East Stars 179-7 v Sunrisers

    Wicket-maiden from Grace Scrivens.

    Stars have 11 overs to build a score and just three wickets in hand.

    But there is hope if you are a Stars supporter.

    Kalea Moore and ADR put on an unbroken stand of 90 in the semi-finals to dig their side out of the soup. Can they do it again?

    Central Sparks batter on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    "ADR thought she nailed it down the ground but it was a great stop. Macdonald-Gay has given her a pat on the back as if to say 'it's okay, you are our important batter'."

  9. wicket

    WICKET MacDonald-Gay run out (Gray) 1published at 38.1 overs

    South East Stars 179-7 v Sunrisers

    That's miles out!

    Alice Davidson-Richards drives down the ground and they set off for a run.

    But bowler Grace Scrivens dives to her right to get a hand to the ball and deflect it to Eva Gray.

    Ryana MacDonald-Gay keeps running but is way out of her ground as Gray hurls the ball to wicketkeeper Amara Carr who does the rest.

    Kalea Moore is in.

    How will this pressure affect Alice Davidson-Richards?

    Stars' hopes of a defendable target rest on her shoulders.

    She has carried her superb recent form into the final and two singles take her to 71 off 88 balls.

    Three from the over.

    Stars are 15-1 from the last seven overs.

  11. Coppack's work is donepublished at 37 overs

    South East Stars 175-6 v Sunrisers

    Ryana MacDonald-Gay is off the mark with a single to her first ball and Alice Davidson-Richards repeats the trick to Kate Coppack's final ball.

    That ends a superb morning's work from Coppack who finishes with her best RHF Trophy figures of 4-27.

    Grace Scrivens further tightens the screw with another miserly over.

    It costs just the one single.

    "Coppack has bowled tremendously. 4-27 in the final, she's stepped up when it matters the most.

    "She's given the batters nothing and she's been consistent with her lines."

    "Coppack has been bowling absolutely exquisitely in this game. She's picked up four wickets and has been so persistent."

    Stars will be glad to see Kate Coppack running in for the final time.

    And she has a fourth wicket!

    Phoebe Franklin has been frustrated in recent overs and it tells as she plays across the line to a ball which keeps straight and knocks back her middle stump.

    She is having a sensational day. Her first four-for this season.

  15. Sunrisers squeezepublished at 35 overs

    South East Stars 171-5 v Sunrisers

    Dot ball pressure is maintained as Grace Scrivens continues with her off breaks.

    Just two singles and a leg bye from it.

    There hasn't been a boundary for 27 balls.

    A change of gloves comes out for Alice-Davidson-Richards. And perhaps a message too.

    "Even with the loss of wickets, they have been able to keep the scoreboard ticking over. Davidson-Richards has been the standout but she has been ably supported by Cranstone and Franklin."

    South East Stars 168-5v Sunrisers

    Phoebe Franklin set off like a train but her momentum has just been slowed in recent overs.

    After two dots, she works the third ball of Kate Coppack's penultimate over for a single.

    Alice Davidson-Richards soaks up three more dots. Just four runs off the last three overs.

    Looks like they're content to see off Coppack who has 3-23 from nine super overs.

    "Scrivens has been varying the pace with her bowling. Grewcock was bowling slightly slower with more flight on the ball, while Scrivens has been slightly flatter."

    South East Stars 167-5 v Sunrisers

    Skipper Grace Scrivens has starred with the bat this summer but now she tries to have a say with the ball.

    Bang on the money as her second over costs just a single apiece.

  20. Postpublished at 32 overs

    South East Stars 165-5 v Sunrisers

    Kate Coppack (3-21) in again for her eighth over.

    Alice Davidson-Richards wallops the second ball into the onside but is fielded in the deep for a single.

    Nice line from Coppack who starves the busy Franklin of width to smash.

    Just one from it.
