    WICKET

    Graham c Dattani b Wellington 35 (Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 118-6)

    A huge wicket for Hampshire! Heather Graham tries to clear mid-off but sends Amanda-Jade Wellington straight to the safe hands of Naomi Dattani.

    Durham still have work to do to get over the line here and the dismissal of Graham is a blow.

  2. 'Thompson doing the business'

    Grace Thompson doing the business for Durham. Back-to-back boundaries.

    Sensational stuff from the youngster.

  3. Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 114-5

    Bex Tyson's final over proves to be especially costly in the match situation - 11 runs come from the over and eight of them, back-to-back boundaries, from the final two balls to Grace Thompson.

    Thompson helps the first, dragged down which she picked up, into the leg side and then turns a wide delivery round the corner to the rope between fine leg and square leg.

  4. 100 runs

    100 up for Durham

    Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 103-5

    An excellent shot into the leg-side by Heather Graham, which finds the rope, brings up Durham's 100 in the 16th over.

    There were six runs which came from Poppy Tulloch's over just then. It remains on a knife-edge. Bex Tyson is back into the attack and Graham remains there on 31 not out.

  5. Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 97-5

    Another five runs come from the over to accompany the wicket of Mia Rodgers. Durham now need 33 from 30 balls. Grace Thompson is now out in the middle with Heather Graham.

    It is tense, with so much on the line for both sides.

  6. 'Millimetres in it'

    Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 93-5

    Rita Green
    Ex-cricketer and commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    There was millimetres in it, but it just goes to show the pressure is definitely building for the Durham batters here.

    They chose to take on the risk of that second run and there wasn't much in it.

  7. wicket

    WICKET

    Rodgers run out McCaughan 8 (Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 93-5)

    Superb from Ella McCaughan, who picks the ball up cleanly in the deep and bowler and Hampshire captain Georgia Adams takes the bails off before Mia Rodgers had grounded her bat.

    The second run between her and Heather Graham did not look on and proved costly. Durham are now five down but need practically a run a ball.

  8. 'Durham haven't been able to pick up momentum'

    Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 92-4

    Isabelle Duncan
    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    It was a good start for Durham. They laid the foundation of 52 for that first wicket. But since then wickets have been fairly regular and they haven't been able to pick up momentum again.

  9. Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 92-4

    Nine runs come from Amanda-Jade Wellington's over - but that does not tell half the story.

    There was first the boundary misfield from Abi Norgrove, which turned one or maybe two runs into four, and then Wellington herself missed out on a huge run-out opportunity with Mia Rodgers out of her ground.

    Heather Graham then sent one up in the air which landed in between three fielders, including keeper Rhianna Southby.

  10. Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 83-4

    Tight from Georgia Adams, who decides to bring herself back on. She goes for five singles and keeps Durham's batters in their place in terms of run rate.

    Mia Rodgers is now at the crease with Heather Graham, who you would think is now crucial to Durham's chances of getting over the line.

  11. 'Windsor didn't time that'

    Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 78-4

    Isabelle Duncan
    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Emily Windsor didn't time that, she didn't put the weight into ball and didn't get onto the front foot.

    An easy catch in the end.

    WICKET

    Windsor c Dattani b Tulloch 1 (Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 78-4)

    Hampshire celebrate Emily Windsor's wicketGetty Images

    Now Emily Windsor does have to depart. Struggling to pierce the in-field, she elects to go big but only succeeds in picking out Naomi Dattani in the covers, who takes an easy catch.

    Durham are now four down and they still need 52 from eight overs.

  13. 'It's the smallest squiggle you can probably get'

    Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 73-3

    Kevan James
    BBC Radio Solent commentator

    It's the tiniest edge ever. I don't think she will have felt that.

    There is literally a little squiggle and it's the smallest squiggle you can probably get. Anything less wouldn't register.

  14. Umpire review

    Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 73-3

    Another review in the same over - this time from the batter.

    New batter to the crease Emily Windsor looks to reverse paddle her first delivery into the off-side but is adjudged to have been trapped in front.

    The review is another very good one. There is some bat before it hits the pad and Windsor survives.

  15. 'What a call that is'

    Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 73-3

    Kevan James
    BBC Radio Solent commentator

    What a call that is. That's literally glanced the glove. What a review that is.

    Well done Rhianna Southby!

    It's a big wicket as well. Bess Heath has been batting well in this competition, over 260 runs in this year's competition.

    That's a good catch down the leg side.

  16. wicket

    WICKET

    Heath c Southby b Tyson 8 (Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 73-3)

    Indeed, there is a spike on Ultra Edge and Bess Heath has to depart! Another twist, perhaps?

  17. Umpire review

    Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 73-2

    Hampshire reckon they might have a caught behind shout here and have taken it upstairs. Bex Tyson bowls and Rhianna Southby behind the stumps is adamant there is an edge, or maybe glove, from batter Bess Heath.

  18. Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 71-2

    Lovely, controlled strike of the ball from Heather Graham to bring about another timely boundary for Durham in this chase.

    She clears mid-off, who is up, when coming down the ground to Amanda-Jade Wellington and the ball races to the boundary. Nine runs come from the over in total.

  19. 'What a good introduction that was'

    Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 62-2

    Isabelle Duncan
    Commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    The youth of Poppy Tulloch and a change of bowling.

    That was her first over, her first introduction to the bowling attack and what a good introduction it was.

    It's turned the game.

  20. Hampshire Hawks 129 v Durham 62-2

    The ninth over, Poppy Tulloch's first, brought another wicket for Hampshire and seven more runs.

    Bess Heath, the new batter, is stylishly off the mark with a smart cut to the backward point boundary, but Tulloch will have been satisfied with that over and how the ball came out - and that she has already been rewarded with that all-important breakthrough.
