    WICKETpublished at 64 balls left

    Shrubsole c Kapp b Capsey 1 (Brave 14-6)

    I'm not really sure what to say here. Shrubsole goes for a booming drive, but a diving Marizanne Kapp takes a good catch.

    14-6. Scenes.

  2. Brave 13-5published at 65 balls left

    Need 108 runs to win

    Just a couple of singles from Tash Farrant's set of five, which has allowed me to try and get my head around what's happened. And if I'm flustered, imagine how Anya Shrubsole and Stafanie Taylor are feeling.

    I want to see Brave put a fight. It's the final. Stafanie, time to step up and do something heroic.

    Need 111 runs to win

    Captain Anya Shrubsole is in. She certainly can bat but when your team is 11-5 in a final, that's not exactly ideal, is it?

    Things are unraveling here for Brave.

    Wellington c Capsey b Ismail 0 (Brave 11-5)

    What's happening!?!?!?!? Wellington goes for a pull shot that gifts Alice Capsey the easiest catch you could imagine.

    Fran Wilson batted nicely and now she just produced a bit of magic.

    Another one bites the dust. It's a capitulation.

    Bouchier run out Wilson 7 (Brave 11-4)

    Surely is! Not much to say other than fair play, Fran Wilson. You don't want to run a risky single to her, and this is why. She pounces at backward point and demolishes the stumps with a direct hit.

    It's chaos!

    A run out?! Surely not!

  13. Brave 11-3published at 75 balls left

    Need 111 runs to win

    A lot of people - myself included - were thinking that Brave were strong favourites to win this. I wonder if Invincibles knew that, and it's motivated them to put in this performance?

    Still a long way to go, but what a first 25 balls it's been!

    Three wickets, a couple of boundaries and a dropped catch already.

    A reminder that Marizanne Kapp has three wickets for just two runs already.

    She's back for another five already.

  15. Brave 8-3published at 80 balls left

    Need 114 runs to win

    And now Stafanie Taylor hits one in the air that just lands in front of the fielder! Brave are panicking.

    Oh you've got to catch that. Is that the bit of luck Brave need?

    This first 15 minutes has had everything.

    Bouchier dropped on 4published at 83 balls left

    Nearly another! Jo Gardner diving forward, she should have got that but it pops out as she lands on the ground. The ball might still be a bit slippery, perhaps?

    Invincibles' bowling attack really is relentless - Tash Farrant replaces Marizanne Kapp.

    Under pressure, Maia Bouchier? Not at all. She smashes Shabnim Ismail for a one-bounce four.
