Cricket commentator on BBC TwoMarizanne Kapp had never been hit for six before in The Hundred until then, it shows how fearless Deandra Dottin is.

Target 129
Massive!
Deandra Dottin is in the mood for this. She launches Kapp down the ground for six more.
The momentum swings once more...
Superchargers closing on victory v Rocketspublished at 17:23 British Summer Time 9 August 2023
Tom Kohler-Cadmore is out now and the Trent Rockets' hopes are fading.
It's a third wicket for Northern Superchargers captain Wayne Parnell too.
The hosts need 41 from 17 balls with only four wickets left. Remember the Superchargers were 9-3 in their innings after 10 balls.

Big moment. Here's Marizanne Kapp for her final five balls.
And she's pulled for four by Deandra Dottin!
It looks a pretty bad misfield from Eva Gray out on the boundary but there was a huge cluster of pigeons right in front of her that dispersed as the ball approached, and I think they might have got in her eyeline.

James Anderson
England bowler on BBC TwoAnother great sweep shot for Sophie Ecclestone. Here at The Oval, if you hit in front of square, you get real value and it races away.

Dottin who, says Sophie Ecclestone, as she sweeps Capsey for another boundary.
36 from 25 balls the equation now.

England bowler on BBC TwoIt's all in the hands of Deandra Dottin. It would be a huge wicket for the Invincibles, if they can get it. The Originals don't have a lot of batting to come so it all hangs on her.

England captain on BBC TwoThe Oval Invincibles have only used five bowlers so far. It will be interesting to see if they stick to that or not.
Originals 80-4published at 30 balls left
Target 129
Ryana Macdonald-Gay responds well with a couple of smart slower balls that just apply the pressure back on to the Originals.

Phil Tufnell
Former England spinner on BBC Test Match SpecialBosh. There you go. That is Dottin all over, she has such good eyes and hands. Anything in that arc, she knows she has the power and that is always going to be a four.

England captain on BBC TwoIf Dottin can face 20 or 25 balls, you feel the Originals have got a great chance here. She has started really well and can be really destructive.
Originals 79-4published at 33 balls left
That'll help!
Smashed straight down the ground for four by Deandra Dottin.
Pure power.

WICKETpublished at 38 balls left
Wellington lbw b Gray 6 (Originals 72-4)
Another!
Full and straight does the trick for Eva Gray, as Amanda-Jade Wellington plays all around it and doesn't even bother hesitating for a review.
The game is swinging the Invincibles' way.
