Match Hero Tash Farrant talking to Sky Sports: "I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous at the end. I don't know how I've won this and not Dane to be honest. I was nervous but I was confident in the girls.
"Alice Capsey is so confident and she knows we really back her. she works really hard and she deserves the success she is getting.
"I've never played in front of a crowd of this size. England is the pinnacle, but The Hundred isn't far behind."

The big takeaway from this victory is having a set batter there at the end to capitalise. When you have someone who can bat through and face between 40-60 balls that is when it is very tough to lose matches.

Dane van Niekerk was thumping the air in celebration.
Birmingham Phoenix let themselves down in the field today. It could have gone the other way. You can't ignore four dropped catches.

Dane van Niekerk, take a bow. That was outstanding. That was what we call a captain's knock in cricket.
It is an important win for Oval Invincibles.

Dane van Niekerk has impressed me today batting all the way through the innings. That could be the difference because Phoenix had no set batter at the end.
Invincibles 126-2
4 runs needed
What a shot that is!
Another huge strike from Van Niekerk, sending the ball flying into the stands, and it's a much easier target now.
