Blasted it through the covers to bring up the win in style! Flighted fuller length ball around the fifth stump line, skips down and bludgeons hard through the gap past Smale and finds the ropes.

Player of the Match, Annabel Sutherland: "Feels great for the win, and then hopefully we can carry that momentum into the next two games we hope. [Playing in Headingley] We love it. And firstly, thanks so much to the fans for your support over the course of the season. We love playing here, and I guess it shows in the results we've got here. It's why you play tournament cricket. Everyone's really keen for Saturday, and hopefully put our best foot forward. I probably enjoyed the on-drive along the ground a little bit more than the one in the air. But nah, it's probably a strength of the mind going straight, and nice for a couple to come off what was a pretty good batting wicket. We honestly just have a blast out there. We really enjoy each other's company. It's a great tournament. Lots of fun. And looking forward to watching the boys hopefully get a win tonight as well."
5:10 pm It was a completely one-sided affair. The Northern Superchargers continued their home dominance, cruising to victory and building significant momentum heading into the playoffs. The chase started cautiously for the Superchargers after they lost Perrin early on. However, Alice Davidson-Richards continued her brilliant form, hitting some superb boundaries and making good use of the Powerplay. The responsibility then fell to Litchfield and Sutherland, who took charge, striking aggressively and rotating the strike with ease. Both batters remained unbeaten, with Sutherland scoring a quick 30 runs off 17 balls and Litchfield adding 26 off 20 deliveries. With this decisive win, the Northern Superchargers secure their second-place position and will now face the London Spirit in the eliminator match. Filer and Ecclestone picked up one wicket each.
