    What a star Lauren Bell has been. She picks up wickets at crucial times and she's done it again!

    Van Niekerk c Lewis b Bell 26 (Invincibles 64-3)

    The captain is dismissed!

    Lauren Bell bowls a brilliant slower ball out of the back of the hand and Dan Van Niekerk top-edges it to mid-off.

    Superb from Bell.

    Your overseas are there to get you out of these tricky situations. This is a big moment for Marizanne Kapp.

    In fairness to Fran Wilson, she had to go for it. The partnership was building but the scoring wasn't, so she had to play that shot.

    Fran Wilson will be disappointed not to kick on and get a score. She's had a few 20s and 30s in recent games, that's a big wicket for Brave.

    The partnership has been broken! Wilson sweeps AJ Wellington and it goes straight down the throat of Danni Wyatt on the boundary. It's another simple catch.

    I think Oval Invincibles will try and increase the run rate now. They've got a bit of a partnership together so it's time to start playing a few more big shots.

    Van Niekerk 25, Wilson 25

    Taylor bowls outside the off stump and it misses both batter and wicketkeeper and trickles towards the boundary. The batters run two as the umpire raises his hand to signal byes.

    Just four runs from the set of five.

    Paul Taylor: No doubt about it; Manchester Originals have the best kit.

    Marilyn: Has to be the Birmingham Phoenix kit, when you walked into the shop at Edgbaston, you needed sunglasses.

    A nice comeback from Fi Morris, bowling a much tighter line and cramping the batters for space.

    Fran Wilson was dropped a few balls ago and sometimes, a dropped catch can free you up and you can feel like it's your day.

    Now Fran Wilson is in on the act, playing a brilliant reverse sweep for four. Terrific shot. The 50 partnership is up and the platform is now set for Invincibles.

    The rain is actually pretty heavy. I have seen matches stopped in lighter rain than this. It will have an impact on the players.

    Van Niekerk adds insult to injury as she smashes the next ball to the boundary.

    I think the ball is getting wet. It is raining, so it can be like catching a bar of soap but Dunkley had it! It just popped out of her hands.

    Dropped!! Sophia Dunkley, running in from the deep, spills a catch and Fran Wilson survives!

    Did the rain put her off? Either way, a big moment in the game so far.

    I hope Sophia Dunkley wasn't the lead singer. She's the only one in the England team who's worse than me.

    Tara Norris started up a band with Sophia Dunkley while they were at uni. I think Ellie Threlkeld was in it too.
