Latest balls
- It was a low-scoring game which was interestingly played in rain throughout the contest but Scorchers Women were able to utilise their experience in the bowling department to secure a fighting win. That's all from us for now as this is Hitesh Nair signing off on behalf of Yatish Sehgal and Amit Kumar.
- 18.1Lilly Mills to Georgia Prestwidge: Wicket! Caught By Freya Kemp. No Run. Perth Scorchers Women win by 15 runs! Was a length ball on leg, pulls it uppishly and straight into the hands of Kemp at deep square leg who doesn't make any mistake, Sutherland in the dugout can't quite belief the result of the match while the rest of the Stars Women squad are quite disappointed as well
- 17.6Alana King to Maisy Gibson: Bowled!. No Run. Was a flighted googly on middle, looks to sweep it away but gets beaten in the flight, goes past her bat and clips the top of off stump.
- 17.5Alana King to Maisy Gibson: No Run. Googly on length on off, cuts it to backward point
- 17.4Alana King to Maisy Gibson: No Run. Full ball on off, pushes it back to Alana
- 17.3Alana King to Maisy Gibson: No Run. Flighted googly around off, looks to drive it but misses out
- 17.2Alana King to Maisy Gibson: No Run. Full ball outside off, drives it to cover
- 17.1Alana King to Kim Garth: LBW!. No Run. Umpire's call it is! Was a flighted ball on off, looks to reverse sweep it but misses out and gets hit on the pad, ball tracking shows umpire's call on hitting and on-field decision has been upheld.
- 16.6Sophie Devine to Kim Garth: One Run. Was a yorker on off, jams it wide of point for a run
- 16.5Sophie Devine to Georgia Prestwidge: One Run. Back of length slower ball on leg, pulls it to deep square leg for a run
- 16.4Sophie Devine to Kim Garth: One Run. Length ball outside off, inside edges the cut to mid wicket for a run
- 16.3Sophie Devine to Kim Garth: Four. Short of length ball on leg, pulls it wide of fine leg for a boundary
- 16.2Sophie Devine to Danielle Gibson: Wicket! Caught By Beth Mooney. No Run. Was a short of length ball on off, looks to pull it away but outside edges it through to Mooney who holds onto a great catch while standing up to the stumps, 4th wicket for Devine.
