    It is like she's toying with the field.

    Jemimah Rodrigues is in seriously good touch at the moment. It's hard to know where to bowl to her.

  4. Superchargers 61-1published at Ball 50

    Shot of the day so far.

    Jemimah Rodrigues stands tall and pumps Danielle Gibson back down the ground, through mid-off, for another boundary.

    She's on the charge with Superchargers at the halfway point of their innings.

  5. Superchargers 56-1published at Ball 47

    Jemimah Rodrigues plays the same stroke next ball, but Heather Knight has moved Freya Davies slightly squarer on the boundary, and that keeps it down to just a single.

  6. Superchargers 55-1published at Ball 46

    Wowee. Jemimah Rodrigues has crunched this.

    There's a bit of extra pace with Danielle Gibson back on, and Rodrigues gets down on one knee and crashes through the covers.

    Classy.

  7. Superchargers 51-1published at Ball 45

    A dot ball ends Heather Knight's first set of five. It went for eight and Jemimah Rodrigues and Laura Wolvaardt are looking good.

    These two have run very well between the wickets. Knight has to be precise with her line and length.

  9. Superchargers 51-1published at Ball 44

    Excellent from Jemimah Rodrigues. She picks up two more with a hard sweep, before a fine dapped sweep sees her pick up four.

  10. Superchargers 45-1published at Ball 42

    Nice shot. Jemimah Rodrigues picks up a couple with a classy steer through third.

    Heather Knight is bringing herself on to bowl.

  12. Superchargers 43-1published at Ball 40

    Heather Knight will be happy with that gamble I think. Charlie Dean concedes just nine from the 10-ball set.

    This partnership between Jemimah Rodrigues and Laura Wolvaardt is worth 35 off 34 balls now. At least one of these will want to bat deep.

  13. Superchargers 43-1published at Ball 37

    Uh oh. Short from Charlie Dean and Laura Wolvaardt swivel pulls past fine leg for four more.

  14. Superchargers 38-1published at Ball 35

    Just four singles from Charlie Dean's first five balls, so Heather Knight has decided to keep her on for another set of five.

  15. Superchargers 35-1published at Ball 32

    Spinner Charlie Dean is on.

    Heather Knight is ringing the changes.

    Games come thick and fast, which makes it hard for the groundstaff to keep preparing fresh wickets. That's when you get the best teams. In tournament competitions, the ones that adapt quickest are the ones that perform the best.

  17. Superchargers 34-1published at Ball 30

    Good fielding! A wide full toss is slapped through the covers by Laura Wolvaardt, but a sliding Freya Davies does well to get around and keep it to just a couple.

    That's a good set for Superchargers though.

    That wasn't a million miles away from the pad...

  19. Superchargers 31-1published at Ball 27

    Oh! Lovely ball from Danielle Gibson.

    She finds a little bit of tail back in, and Jemimah Rodrigues just, and I mean just, gets her bat down in time to edge away past the stumps and down to the fine leg boundary.

  20. Postpublished at 15:19 British Summer Time 3 August 2021

    Jemimah Rodrigues and Laura Wolvaardt don't just bat together. Here they are in a recent post on Rodrigues' Instagram with the India international on guitar and the South African with the vocals. Wolvaardt wrote the song too...
