There's the release shot from Dane van Niekerk, the pressure was building. Oval Invincibles needed that.

There we go! Van Niekerk frees her arms and drives up and over extra cover for a one-bounce four.

I’ve had a wander around the ground and there are a load of kids here as well as plenty of 20-somethings, some in terrible shirts. It’s a nice mix.
Oohs and ahhs from the Brave fielders as Shrubsole beats Wilson's bat.
Some fine fielding at extra cover stops Wilson from getting off the mark with a boundary, limiting the batter to just one.
This has been such a quality start from Brave.

Fran Wilson hasn't had a great tournament. But if you get a score on Finals Day, that's what people will remember. What an opportunity.

It's surprising that Georgia Adams was trying to take on the biggest boundary when there were two fielders positioned there. It's a perfect start for Southern Brave.
Adams c Wyatt b Shrubsole 4 (Invincibles 5-1)
Anya Shrubsole strikes!
Such is the format of The Hundred, the pressure was already building on the Invincibles openers as Georgie Adams, looking to heave Shrubsole to the mid-wicket boundary, finds Danni Wyatt in the deep.
Absolutely brilliant from Bell. She bowls five dot balls as Van Niekerk - the third highest scorer in the women's competition - struggles to get the seamer away.

Lauren Bell's in my team of the tournament. She's been so impressive.
As you will have probably figured out, Adams comes from a cricketing family.
The very talented Lauren Bell has the ball in her hand and she beats the bat of Dane van Niekerk with a beauty.

Georgia Adams is doing well to see the ball through all the fog from the fireworks!
Invincibles are up and running.
Back of a length and straight from Shrubsole and Adams easily clubs it through the leg side for the first boundary of the final.

Anya Shrusbole was the hero for England here four years ago, taking six wickets to win the World Cup. Can she do it in domestic cricket today?
It's Anya Shrubsole to Adams as the batter drives to mid-off. We begin with a dot.

Dane van Niekerk has been a great captain. She worked a dream yesterday taking the strategic timeout, it got them the win. They've relied on her with both bat and ball, she's made big contributions and is a very key player for the Invincibles today.

There are lots of people still behind the stands and queuing to get into the ground. Caught by surprise by the weather being better than expected?
