Full commentary
7.20pm: Hugs and handshakes on the field as Surrey's players come down to join the matchwinner, Grace Harris, and her unbeaten partner Kira Chathli. They put in a concerted team effort with the ball, and then survived a couple of wobbles with the bat to bring it home with 3.2 overs to spare. And there's also time to follow the closing stages of the women's Euro final, too, with England and Spain currently in extra time out in Basel. That's a wrap from The Oval for tonight. Bye!

Taylor to Harris, SIX runs
Harris humpty! Blammed into the seats at wide long-on! Plants the front foot and slog-sweeps Taylor unceremoniously for six. One of the biggest hits of the day

Arlott to Scholfield, OUT
slapped hard... but picks out deep midwicket! Is there a twist? Slower ball from Arlott and Scholfield can't manufacture the power required. Well held by Perrin down low coming in from the rope
