    Lauren Bell has been exceptional.

  2. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 99 balls

    Brunt c Wellington b Bell 5 (Rockets 88-7)

    Another dot as a Brunt straight-drive goes back to the bowler.

    Lauren Bell, on 2-9 after 15 balls, will bowl the final set.

  6. Rockets 87-6published at 95 balls

    One more single and then a dot.

    The Brave have been so, so economical with the ball. There just aren't any easy runs.

    Freeborn 1, Brunt 5

    Two singles from the next two balls

  8. Rockets 84-6published at 91 balls

    Amanda-Jade Wellington has been brilliant once again. She always performs, she is so consistent.

  11. Rockets 84-6published at 90 balls

    Brilliant from Wellington who finishes with a dot. She's taken 3-18 off her 20.

  12. Rockets 83-6published at 87 balls

    Abi Freeborn gets off the mark with a single to the leg side.

    Amanda-Jade Wellington has figures of 3-17 by the way.

    It's actually a good option for Alana King to reverse sweep but she's not got down far enough, not fully committed, so it's just looped up for an easy catch.

    It's carnage out there.

  15. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 86 balls

    King c Adams b Wellington 1 (Rockets 82-6)

    Reverse-swept straight to slip.

    The simplest of simple catches. The Rockets are falling apart.

  16. Rockets 82-5published at 85 balls

    ...That she does. Adams finishes with figures of 1-17 off her 20 balls.

    Katherine Brunt's the next batter in by the way.

    Georgia Adams probably wasn't expecting to bowl as much as she is for Southern Brave, but she's very tall and skiddy and it does cause a lot of problems for batters.

    Probably one of the simplest catches Danni Wyatt will take.

  19. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 82 balls

    Du Preez c Wyatt b Adams 10 (Rockets 79-5)

    Mignon du Preez has to go for it now, but her hop down to the leg side boundary is straight down Danni Wyatt's throat.

    Another wicket gone. It's all smiles in the field for the Brave.

  20. Rockets 79-4published at 80 balls

    Alana King is next in. She blocks her first ball.
