Only the Australian Olivia Magno offered resistance, remaining unbeaten on 77, with Arnold and Davies the only others to join her in double figures. Bowling figures of 5-22 from 10 overs show how devastating Kelly Evenson was, assisted by Gill Richards who took 2-30 and Coxon who took the early and prized wicket of Edwards.

Wakefield reached 106-9 in the 37th over as the match was reduced due to showers, with Clare Taylor, England's experienced seam bowler top-scoring with 26. Connor then scored 54 before being bowled by Taylor, to ensure Brighton took The Cup back to the South Coast.
ECB Women's Plate Final Shepperton replied with an opening stand of 75 between Wain and Craig, and when Natalie Lane took two quick wickets of Leafe and Midwinter leaving Shepperton on 91-4, the young Hurricanes could still have produced a surprise.
