- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR13.3 Carter departs. A length ball turning away from the batter. Carter looks to go big but all she gets is an outside edge to the keeper 85/34.2 goes for the yorker but it ends up as a low full toss. Fraser tries to go aerial once again but doesn't get the required elevation. Silva at mid-off dives to her right and takes the catch with both hands 33/19.5 a stunning return catch by Dilhari. Bryce comes down the ground and looks to go aerial. Doesn't get the elevation though. It's around head height to the left of Dilhari. She goes with both hands and it sticks in her left 66/218.5 almost on the blockhole. Lister digs it out but doesn't realise where the ball has gone. Bryce calls for a single and Lister responds. But the ball was just to the left and in front of the bowler in her follow-through. Silva picks it up, turns around and nails the direct hit. Lister was well short 138/418.6 another run out!. Bryce pushes it towards covers and sets off. It's straight to the fielder who fires in a throw right above the stumps. The keeper collects it and breaks the stumps in a single motion to find Chatterji short 138/519.4 full and straight. Sproul exposed her stumps in an attenpt to lap it fine but she missed it altogether and is bowled 146/6Extras8 (lb 1, w 7)TOTAL151/6 (20 Overs, RR: 7.55)Fall of wickets: 1-33 (Katherine Fraser, 4.2 ov), 2-66 (Kathryn Bryce, 9.5 ov), 3-85 (Darcey Carter, 13.3 ov), 4-138 (Ailsa Lister, 18.5 ov), 5-138 (Priyanaz Chatterji, 18.6 ov), 6-146 (Pippa Sproul, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.2 Fraser castles the SL capt and is pumped. Dangled up, drifts in from around the stumps, Athapaththu aims to pump it down the ground, but swings hard and loses her shape. Fraser hits her target - top of middle - and dashes SL's semi-final hopes. Athapaththu gone for 33 off 16 balls 57/22.5 follows the inswinger with the outswinger and strikes in the powerplay. On a good length and veers away outside off, Dulani tries to hit over mid-off, but ends up slicing it to Fontenla at point. Regulation catch 32/18.3 backs away and fails to clear mid-off! Bryce follows the moving batter and Perera can't quite get underneath the length. Mighty full from Bryce, sliced in the air to the infielder 77/312.3 Caught at short third! Fullish and moves away outside off, Samarawickrama throws her bat at ball and ends up carving it off a thick outside edge, which flies to short third. Scotland are still in this 102/59.3 The finger goes up but Karunaratne thinks this is heading down leg. She calls for a review. Fullish and turns in to beat the inside edge of the bat and thud into the front pad below the knee-roll. Was this doing too much? Ball-tracker indicates this would've crashed into leg stump. Karunaratne has to depart. Are Scotland onto something at Old Trafford? 78/414.6 Caught at mid-off! Gordon celebrates the scalp with a double fist pump. Looped up on off, Dilhari steps out, but the ball dips in front of her as Gordon asks her to reach out. Sliced weakly to Bryce 118/617.6 four, four and out! Nuthyangana fails to clear mid-off. Full-toss from Slater, she doesn't get the yorker right. Nuthyangana doesn't get her shot right either. She ends up chipping it to Lister. SL now need 17 off 12 with three wickets in hand 135/7Extras8 (w 8)TOTAL154/7 (19.5 Overs, RR: 7.76)Fall of wickets: 1-32 (Imesha Dulani, 2.5 ov), 2-57 (Chamari Athapaththu, 5.2 ov), 3-77 (Hasini Perera, 8.3 ov), 4-78 (Hansima Karunaratne, 9.3 ov), 5-102 (Harshitha Samarawickrama, 12.3 ov), 6-118 (Kavisha Dilhari, 14.6 ov), 7-135 (Kaushini Nuthyangana, 17.6 ov)
