Over the wicket, short of a length outside off. Clubs this to wide long on, denies the run.

G Atkinson to J Overton
Slower ball, full and very close to the tramline. No signal from the umpire, Overton isn't happy.

G Atkinson to J Overton
IT'S ALL OVER! Back of a length delivery on the off stump. Overton swings hard and gets a top edge. The ball is skying up in the air towards the leg gully region. Sam Billings runs and settles underneath to neatly take the ball in his gloves.

Heinrich Klaasen (Hero of the Match): "Yeah, tough at the start. Sun was not great and we struggled to pick up the ball, but once you got the angle of it and the feel of it, the ball pinged nicely. The wicket was nice and quick, so enjoyed it.
Yeah, the previous game we were nice and quick, and then ladies gave feedback that a wicket is a little bit drier. We wanted to bat first here. Yes. Credit must go to Spencer. 20 balls, one run, three wickets. I don't know why he's not standing here. There was incredible pace in the wicket and our bowling attacks obviously got some pace in that."
