So, that is it from myself, Karthik Raj and my co-commentators, Ajay Ahire and Tushar Garg. Do stay tuned to OneCricket and CricketExchange's coverage of a lot more matches
Alana King: We were excited to finish off the season well. I worked really hard in the off-season. I have tried to create pressure so that the others can take advantage. It will be great to have a packed Optus Stadium for the final. We haven't had a lot of cricket back home in the last couple of years. Adelaide Oval is an amazing ground to play. If I keep attacking the stumps, I will have a chance regardless of whether the ball is turning or not
What a way to finish the league stage for the Perth Scorchers. The table-toppers advance to the Grand Final with an eight-wicket victory over a hapless Sydney Sixers side. The majority of the work was done by the bowlers as they restricted Sydney Sixers to a below-par 128-4.
As usual, the Scorchers opening duo of Sophie Devine and Beth Mooney came out with positive intent for the chase. The pair managed to put on 34 runs for the first wicket before Stella Campbell dismissed Sophie Devine with a short delivery. After a small partnership for the second wicket, Nicole Bolton took a nice return catch to send back Beth Mooney in the eighth over.
In spite of losing the key openers, Chloe Piparo and Heather Graham came together to build a fantastic partnership. After starting a bit slowly, both Piparo and Graham opened up as the overs went by. Eventually, Graham flicked a ball over deep square-leg to bring up the winning runs in the 18th over
