  2. Originals 81-2published at 40 balls left

    Ami Campbell joins Emma Lamb at the crease.

    Georgia Adams bowls a nice tight over for the Brave with just four runs from it. That will do nicely for the Brave.

    There have been a few games where we see some of the big wickets create some pressure for the chasing team. They have plenty of power, it should be all about keeping their cool.

    She looks utterly disconsolate. That was the easiest of catches for Wellington.

    Dottin c & b Wellington 12 (Originals 77-2)

    Big wicket!

    Amanda-Jade Wellington gets the easiest of return catches as Deandra Dottin plops it back to her. That was a bit of a nothing shot, really.

    Dottin trudges off.

    Lovely shot from Dottin, too much power on that.

  8. Originals 72-1published at 50 balls

    Gritty determined stuff from Tahlia McGrath with the ball, initially at least, but Deandra Dottin is starting to find her rhythm here.

    Almost dismissively she thwacks McGrath's final ball of the set back over her head for four. She doesn't bother running for that one. That was four all the way.

    Baseball style! Talking about banging it into the wicket.

  10. Originals 64-1published at 55 balls left

    Power and timing from Deandra Dottin as she steps away and absolutely wallops Laren Bell's fourth ball, with a flat bat slap down the ground for four.

    Wow!

    Lauren Bell's sister is a nail technician. So every game Bell plays, she's got this fantastic set of nails matching her kits, for whatever team she plays for.

    England seam bowler Lauren Bell back into the attack for the Brave.

    Should be a good battle with Deandra Dottin.

  13. Originals 59-1published at 60 balls left

    Deandra Dottin is at the crease but has not quite found her range yet.

    She was actually a star athlete as a kid. Winning medals in the the discus, javelin and shot put in regional championships in the Caribbean before dedicating herself to cricket full time.

    A run a ball off the last set of five from Georgia Adams.

    Nice timing, gets underneath this. Emma Lamb was done slightly by the flight there but that was over the ropes.

  15. 6 runs

    Originals 54-1published at 65 balls left

    Amanda-Jade Wellington will continue bowling 10 on the spin here - if you will excuse the unintentional pun.

    Emma Lamb and new batter Deandra Dottin happy to see knock it round until Wellington's final delivery whip prompts the former to walk down the pitch and whack the ball for six back over the bowler's head.

    She'll be so upset with that. Floating ball outside leg stump, not what Lee would have wanted. When you are out of form, you find new ways of getting out.

    Lee c Mandhana b Wellington 25 (Originals 46-1)

    Key wicket for the Brave as Lizelle Lee miscues a shot, attempting to work the ball of her legs, and spoons the ball up off Amanda-Jade Wellington down the ground where Smriti Mandhana takes an easy catch.

    No wickets down, Originals are well-set. Good running as well, they're creating the pressure.

  20. Originals 40-0published at 75 balls left

    Brave skipper Anya Shrubsole comes on to stem the tide and she is as miserly as you would expect until...Lizelle Lee goes deep into a crease and lifts a full ball back over head for a one-bounce four.

    Brave need a wicket from somewhere.
