I'd like to think Birmingham Phoenix are favourites going into this one.
Post update
We're going to have to wait a little longer to see Issy Wong because Kirstie Gordon is going to bowl the first five balls, with Emma Lamb on strike.
Here we go.
Match-up: The young guns
The battle we've picked out today is between two of England's brightest young talents, Manchester Originals batter Emma Lamb and fast bowler Issy Wong.
Lamb has had a sparkling summer in an England shirt, making her first international century, while Wong has also made her debut in all three formats for her country.
Lamb also bowls off-spin while Wong can give it a whack with the bat - but who will come out on top?

Manchester Originals captain Kate Cross: "We were going to bat too but we weren't too bothered really.
"It feels like we have dominated teams when we have been able to get on top, but when that momentum shifts it's been really hard to get it back. They are the moments we need to recognise a bit better but I am really proud of the girls and how they have played."

Birmingham Phoenix captain Sophie Devine: "The stats show that chasing on this wicket seems to be pretty productive so we’re going to give that a crack.
"We’ve got to make sure that we focus on this game and this game alone. In tournament play you can get too far ahead of yourself. We know we need to play a lot better cricket than we did in the last game."
Teams
Birmingham Phoenix: Sophie Devine, Eve Jones, Amy Jones, Ellyse Perry, Sophie Molineux, Georgia Elwiss, Phoebe Franklin, Issy Wong, Emily Arlott, Kirstie Gordon, Abtaha Maqsood.
Manchester Originals: Lizelle Lee, Emma Lamb, Amy Satterthwaite, Erin Burns, Ami Campbell, Sophie Ecclestone, Eleanor Threlkeld, Kate Cross, Grace Potts, Phoebe Graham, Hannah Jones.

Welcome
Good afternoon!
It's the first of our two big games today, and the equations are pretty simple in the women's competition.

If Birmingham Phoenix win, they're through.
If Manchester Originals lose, they're out.
