at The Kia Oval, London (South) on 26 August 2023 (called-off around 16h45) ‘No result’
*Following a delayed toss, ‘Fire’ scored 104/2 (from 75 balls); at which point ‘Strategic-time-out’ was called, covers were drawn across the pitch and an extended interval was taken. No further play on account of lightning risk to player’s safety. Separately, ’Superchargers’ did not get the opportunity to bat.
*Previous group stage ‘dress rehearsal’ went to Superchargers, only a few days ago; albeit with ‘Superchargers’ batting first. That turned out to be former England spinner Alex Hartley’s final professional match, in which she took to the field. *Tammy Beaumont finished her tournament with 290 runs; ahead of Phoebe Litchfield 266 (Superchargers) and Maia Boucher 254 (Brave): both of whom will play in the Final.
*’Fire’s’ batting: 104/2 (from 75/95 balls); Sophia Dunkley 38(28), Tammy Beaumont 37*not out (30) Laura Harris 14*not out(5) Hayley Matthews 10(12), *’Superchargers’’ bowling: Lucy Higham 1/16, Grace Ballinger 1/24; Fow 1-59, 2-81.
