Right then! That is all we have from this game but the action in The Hundred continues. We have one more Women's game coming up and two Men's game too! So, enjoy that action as well!
Stafanie Taylor is the Hero of the match! She says that they did pretty well and they batted deep and they got to a decent total. Adds that they looked to go hard, but in the middle overs, they kept rotating the strike. Tells that sometimes, it takes a while to get going. Opines that their fielding was great. Says that she knows most of these girls and so, it makes it easier.
Southern Brave Women were really good with the ball. Everyone with the exception of Fi Morris and Tara Norris was very economical and kept the pressure on the batters. Amanda-Jade Wellington in particular was very good with her bowling as she went for only 10 runs in her 20 balls, Anya Shrubsole took 4 wickets, Lauren Bell took 2 while Stafanie Taylor took one. But it was a team effort by them.
Trent Rockets Women needed a good start with the bat but they did not get it as Rachel Priest and Sammy Jo Johnson fell quite early. Natalie Sciver then played a brilliant knock to keep her side in the game. Katherine Brunt struggled to get going but kept her skipper company. As long as they were out there, it looked like it could go down to the wire. But Sciver fell for 44 and Brunt fell soon after and things got tougher. Heather Graham tried her best towards the end but could not get her side over the line.
A wonderful game for Southern Brave Women as they win by 23 runs. With the bat, Anya Shrubsole and Stafanie Taylor led their recovery after a tough start and then their bowlers did the rest. Trent Rockets Women let things slip a bit with the ball but it was still a par score, but they could not chase it down.

Anya Shrubsole to Kathryn Bryce ,OUT! TIMBER! There it is! A wicket on the final ball and Southern Brave Women start off with a win. A slower length ball, around off, the ball takes a long time to arrive and Kathryn Bryce is already through with her shot and misses. The ball clips the off pole. SOUTHERN BRAVE WOMEN WIN BY 23 RUNS!
Kathryn Bryce to face the last ball.

Anya Shrubsole to Heather Graham ,OUT! CAUGHT! That's a fantastic catch! Heather Graham played well, but could not do enough to get her team past the line. A slower length ball, on middle, Heather Graham slams this to the deep mid-wicket region. Danni Wyatt runs to her right and takes a brilliant catch.

Anya Shrubsole to Abbey Freeborn ,OUT! LBW! That was plumb. A full toss, on middle and off, Abbey Freeborn goes low and looks to paddle this one over the keeper but misses and gets hit on the pad. An appeal and the finger goes up.
