    Georgia Adams is a classical player who I like to watch play.

  2. Invincibles 3-0published at 95 balls left

    Ah, some poor fielding allows Adams to run through for two runs when there probably shouldn't have even been one. It nutmegged Tara Norris, and the bowler Shrubsole isn't best pleased.

  3. Invincibles 0-0published at 99 balls left

    Anya Shrubsole's first ball is solidly defended by Georgia Adams.

    It was a pretty tame start from the Brave until Sophia Dunkley kicked on at the end, but there was a glimpse of Danni Wyatt brilliance.

    Thanks, Amy.

    There might be nothing riding on this particular game, with both teams already through, but if they do meet in the final it might give the winner of this one some extra confidence.

    That was a very decent bowling performance from the Invincibles, though. They look very dangerous with Kapp and Ismail back.

    That's a decent end to the innings thanks to Sophia Dunkley, who is having the best summer of anyone I know.

    Oval Invincibles will get their chase going in about 10 minutes time, and it'll be Ffion Wynne to take you through that.

    This could be a thrilling chase. I'd put the Oval Invincibles just ahead.

  11. Brave 115-3published at Ball 100

    Hustled into the leg side by Maia Bouchier, but some good running allows them to nab two!

    Oval Invincibles will need 116 to win.

    One ball for Maia Bouchier to face...

    ...you just smash it, surely?

    Taylor c Gardner b Farrant 23 (Brave 113-3)

    Stafanie Taylor holes out, looking for the big shot and lofting the ball to a very grateful Jo Gardner at long-on.

    She gets a big round of applause from her captain.

  16. Brave 113-2published at Ball 98

    Dunkley darts through for a quick single.

    She's batted so well. Dunks and Tash Farrant are really good friends so they might be trying to get one up on each other here.

    And Dunkley follows it up with a leg-side shovel for four!

    What a shot to go to fifty!

    Glorious way to go to 50!

    Sophia Dunkley pulls Tash Farrant smack into the ropes for a big 'un that takes her to yet another excellent half-century.
