Essex Women head into this contest on the back of a disappointing five-wicket defeat against Surrey Women, unable to defend their total despite a spectacular batting performance from their captain.
Opting to bat first, Essex put up a competitive score of 145/6, anchored entirely by a brilliant, unbeaten knock from skipper Grace Scrivens. Opening the batting, Scrivens carried her bat through the innings to score a magnificent 85 runs off 63 balls, smashing 10 fours and a six. On a tough batting track, where other batters struggled to score runs.
However, their bowling unit struggled to contain Surrey's aggressive batters during the chase. Despite a solid effort from Eva Gray (2/22) and Sophie Munro (2/30) to take regular wickets and create openings, the bowlers leaked too many boundaries, allowing Surrey to chase down the target comfortably with 14 balls to spare.

Hampshire Women are coming on the back of an absolute thriller against Surrey Women, playing out a dramatic tie before eventually losing the match in a Super Over container.
After being asked to bowl first, Hampshire's bowling unit produced a magnificent display to bundle out the opposition for 121/10 in 20 overs. Leg-spinner Amanda-Jade Wellington was the star of the show, ripping through the middle order to pick up a superb three-wicket haul (3/25), while Rebecca Tyson claimed two wickets.
The run chase, however, became a tense, nerve-wracking affair. Captain Georgia Adams fought hard with a steady 30, and Nancy Harman played a sensational cameo of 43 runs off 26 balls to bring them close. Needing two runs of the final ball, Hampshire managed to scamper through for a single as the match ended in a dramatic tie.
