    The scenes here are just incredible. Everyone is on their feet.

    She can just take in that feeling from the non-striker's end now.

    As much as players say they don't think about it she will definitely be thinking about it.

    It's just come up on the big screen.

    Beaumont 99, Bryce 14

    A clinker for a single helps Beaumont keep the strike.

    She's down on her knees between balls, just taking a moment to settle herself.

  8. Fire 142-1published at Ball 78

    There's the record! A single takes Tammy Beaumont to 98.

    Now for the century...

  9. Fire 141-1published at Ball 76

    An inside edge gets Beaumont two more. She has now equalled Beth Mooney's 97 - the previous high score.

  10. Fire 139-1published at Ball 75

    Beaumont 95, Bryce 13

    Ramped for four by Tammy Beaumont!

    Extraordinary.

    She's a hit away from the first century in the women's Hundred.

  11. Fire 135-1published at Ball 74

    Even the mis-hits are going Beaumont's way. She skies one a mile in the air but somehow it doesn't go to hand.

  12. Fire 133-1published at Ball 73

    Same shot and same result again!

    Beth Mooney, the current record holder, must be shuddering in her sleep somewhere in Australia.

  13. Fire 129-1published at Ball 72

    Full and wide with the field up... smashed for four again by Tammy Beaumont.

    She has 85 from 44.

  14. Fire 125-1published at Ball 71

    She's going to do this.

    Once Naomi Dattani returns to the attack, Beaumont drives a full toss for four.

  15. Fire 121-1published at Ball 70

    Beaumont 77, Bryce 13

    Australia international Alana King manages to stop the flow of boundaries but the Rockets need wickets really. The one they did get shouldn't have been out...

  16. Fire 118-1published at Ball 65

    This is a good spell from Alana King and she's going to continue for another five. She's the only one that has been able to tie Beaumont down...

  17. Not outpublished at 15:51 British Summer Time 14 August 2023

    Pitching outside leg stump but a whisker!

    I didn't see that coming.

    Beaumont's assault can continue.

    Oh no!

    Tammy Beaumont is given out lbw.

    She reviews...

    Who is getting excited?

    Tammy Beaumont still looks very calm. She fiddles with her gloves between sets.

    Four in a row.
