Hobart Hurricanes Vs Perth Scorchers LIVE Score, WBBL Final: PS-W Stutter To 137-Run Total

Nicola Carey delivers a splendid last over, conceding just three runs as the Scorchers are unable to get the kind of late push they would have hoped for. The Hurricanes will be chasing a 138-run target, one they would perhaps fancy, though the big-match pressure cannot be discounted.

PS-W: 137/5 (20)

Heather Graham claims her second big scalp of the night, having Sophie Devine stumped by Lizelle Lee to end her stay in the 17th over. The Hurricanes lose half their side and are still unable to push their run rate over seven. Paige Scholfield and Alana King in the middle now, with the last three overs to come.

PS-W: 113/5 (17)

The Hurricanes have seized the initiative soon after the powerplay. Maddy Darke departs in the eighth over and Heather Graham cleans up the dangerous Beth Mooney, before Linsey Smith gets rid of Freya Kemp in her first over. The onus squarely on Sophie Devine now to resurrect the Scorchers' innings.

PS-W: 79/4 (13)

A reverse sweep leads to Katie Mack's (17 off 21) downfall, as she is caught at deep point by Linsey Smith off Lauren Smith's bowling. Beth Mooney has since been joined by Maddy Darke and the duo would aim to lift the scoring tempo, no doubt.

PS-W: 47/1 (7)

Beth Mooney and Katie Mack get the Perth Scorchers' innings underway in Hobart. Off-spinner Molly Strano bowls a tidy first over, conceding just four runs. Seamer Nicola Carey sends down the second and five runs are scored off it. Sluggish start by T20I standards, but it's a huge stage and there would be early nerves on either side.

PS-W: 9/0 (2)
