    It's that slower ball again. She bowls it out of the back of the hand, and it's completely deceived Alice Capsey just as it did Dane van Niekerk earlier.

    Two of cricket's new young stars battle. And it's Lauren Bell who has the last say with another fantastic slower ball, out of the back of the hand, which completely deceives Alice Capsey.

    Feeling confident, Oval fans? Surely runs on the board count extra when it gets close later.

    Great insight from England skipper Heather Knight on t' radio, explaining the practise Lauren Bell has put in to be able to bowl that back-of-the-hand slower ball that dismiss Dan van Niekerk.

    "I have played with Lauren since she was 14 at Berkshire," Knight said. "That slower ball was a few years in the making."

    What a time to deliver with it. It got the biggest wicket in the Invincibles line-up too.

    And as luck would have it, she made our breakout stars list we published this morning. Read that here.

    That is beautiful from Alice Capsey. Great use of the feet, she's seen the gap and knows exactly where she wants to hit it - executed to perfection.

    There's a mix-up between the batters, Capsey tries to scramble back to her crease but it's a poor throw from the fielder at point. Direct hit and Capsey was outta there.

    And she makes the most of her lifeline by jigging down the pitch and boshing it down the ground for a four.

    I'm not putting this down as the drop! Capsey hits it straight back past the bowler and Maia Bouchier dives full length but can't quite reach.

    Bouchier almost along the wet turf on her stomach. A brilliant effort.

    It's raining quite heavily again.

    Pure power! She saw it was looped up by Taylor and pounced on it.

    Anything on the legs and Kapp will punish you as a sweep goes past the fielder at short fine leg for two .

    Stafanie Taylor then bowls outside off and Kapp still manages to slog her to the leg side boundary. Four more.

    Lots of brollies and lots of squinted faces as the crowd try to make out the action in the rain. Nevertheless, there doesn't seem to be any sign of the players coming off!

    A poor set of five from Fi Morris - wrong line and plenty of full tosses. Eight from it.

    Kapp plays a lovely clip off her legs for two runs, before sweeping a leg-side delivery down to the short fine leg boundary for four.

    We've got a 20-year-old bowling to a 17-year-old. Does that make you feel old?

    Alice Capsey, who celebrated her 17th birthday during the tournament, is offered a freebie by Bell - a full toss which is drilled down the ground for four.

    The thing you look out for in a young player is how they approach the big situations. And Alice Capsey has come out, her team in a difficult position, and she has a big smile on her face as if to say 'so what'. That's great to see.

    Pressure makes you do silly things. Dane van Niekerk was the set batter, Wilson had just got out. It was a bad time to go for that shot.

    Big celebrations from the Brave fielders. They know how big a wicket that is.
