In response to 152 runs, the Stars didn’t get the start they wanted as they lost Bess Heath in the very first over of the inning. Bess Heath departed without opening her account. Alice Capsey joined Lauren Winfield-Hill at number three, and the pair started scoring at a brisk pace. The pair added 56 runs for the second wicket after Alice Capsey was dismissed after scoring 38 runs off 26 balls and was soon joined by Lauren Winfield-Hill who departed after scoring 22 runs off 31 balls.
The Stars kept losing wickets at regular intervals and were able to score only 114 runs for the loss of six wickets.
