Knott anchors the chase Knott carried his bat with 84_ not out, holding the innings together in tough batting conditions. Low-scoring contest. Runs were hard to come by for both sides, but Knott’s knock proved the difference. The win meant Blaze tied the bow on their campaign with a victory, rather than ending on a losing note.

Left-arm swing bowler Grace Ballinger returned 3 for 31, while Charley Phillips and Kirstie Gordon struck twice apiece added to two run-outs. But Knott's miserly one for 19 from four overs of offspin was followed up by a brilliant and composed career best 84 not out off 57 balls.
