14.5 to EA Perry, taken at long on! Another one goes. Perry looking to loft a full delivery straight down the ground but didn't get enough of it. Couldn't have picked out the fielder any better. 93/5
Ayabonga Khaka	4	0	50	0	12.50	5	6	1	3	1
Masabata Klaas	3	0	16	2	5.33	10	2	0	0	0
8.3 to AJ Healy, gone, takes off stump! Giving herself room outside leg, Klaas stays straight, Healy misses with a horizontal bat and it hammers the top of the stump. Big moment. 58/2 13.6 to P Litchfield, great catch! Brilliant from Tryon at deep cover. Litchfield came down the pitched, drove in the air over cover and Tryon makes great ground in off the rope to take it low down with a dive. 89/4
Nadine de Klerk	4	0	24	1	6.00	7	2	0	0	0
17.2 to A Gardner, straight to short fine leg! Goes for the scoop against a straight, length delivery. Doesn't get enough of it. Simple chance and this time Khaka holds it. 109/6
Nonkululeko Mlaba	3	0	18	1	6.00	8	2	0	0	0
12.3 to TM McGrath, well bowled! Lovely stuff from Mlaba. Good length, gripped to spin past the edge as McGrath came down the pitch. No chance of getting back. Another struggle for McGrath. 84/3

Megan Schutt	4	0	25	1	6.25	12	4	0	0	0
15.1 to S Luus, caught behind! great catch from Healy up to the stumps. Shorter leg cutter outside off, a hint of extra bounce, Luus cuts hard but gets a thin edge and Healy moving with it with soft hands takes an excellent catch.. 110/3
Ashleigh Gardner	4	0	26	2	6.50	9	2	0	1	0
14.5 to M Kapp, holes out to long-on! Harris takes the catch. Tossed up in the slot, she tries to step-hit a slog sweep over midwicket but gets under it and Harris is in 15 metres from the long-on rope to take the catch. 109/2 17.6 to A Bosch, clean bowled! Bosch felt the pressure. Good length, spinning into middle and off, Bosch runs down and swipes wildly across the line, it spins through the gate and crashes into middle and off. 131/4

9.4 to T Brits, lofted down the ground, and superbly taken by Wareham running back from mid-off...terrific judgement as this dropped over her shoulder. Brits not quite getting all of this as she drove on the up. 75/1
