8.43 pm So both the women's and men's Southern Brave sides will be at Lord's for their respective finals tomorrow. A thumping performance here at the Oval by James Vince's men, sealing victory with 32 balls to spare to book a date against Birmingham Phoenix tomorrow evening in St John's Wood.
Match Hero is George Garton: "It's a great feeling. It was nice to put in a performance in the Eliminator. We look for match winners in our team so it was nice to be able to put my hand up and help get us into the final. It's true that we got off to a slow start but that feels an age ago now. People don't really remember the first game. In the short format it's all about getting on a roll and winning is a habit. We seem to be able to do that and put in performances when they count, so very happy. Our bowling unit today really put their hands up. Everyone performed really well and we've seen lads dovetail brilliantly. Tonight was my night. But I thought the team, especially the batting to go out there and smack it around was top drawer. Hopefully we can take that forward into the final."
So we're down to a final doubleheader tomorrow for all the tasty branded crisps you can devour in one sitting. Southern Brave take on Oval Invincibles in the Women's Final in the afternoon before Birmingham Phoenix take on Southern Brave in the Men's Final in the evening. Come back and join us tomorrow for all the action at Lord's. For Alan Gardner, I'm Peter Della Penna. Take care!

de Lange to Davies, OUT
the drop only costs two runs. Length ball that Davies pushes hard at but is beaten on the inside edge by seam movement that flicks the bat. Big appeal denied initially but the bat was far away from the pads. Could only have been one thing producing the noise. They go for the review and sure enough a spike appears as it passes the bat. Decision overturned.

de Lange to Davies, 2 runs
dropped! Hales with a great effort that is ultimately fruitless running back from mid-on. It was a full ball on the stumps that Davies tries to shovel down the ground but gets under it too much. Hales runs back 20 yards from the ring and dives toward the rope but shells this after getting two hands to it on the over the shoulder chance.
Marchant de Lange to get one more set in.
