Sutherland hits one from Adams down the ground for six to take Superchargers to a seven wicket win with 12 balls to spare. Brave were unbeaten all season coming in to today but they have been well and truly beaten in the big one, and Superchargers have won The Hundred for the first time.

Superchargers now 110-3 after 85 balls, needing six from 15 balls at 0.40 per ball, current rate 1.29 per ball.

100 up for the Superchargers from the 79th ball of their innings. They need 16 from the last 21 balls. The 80th ball sees the bail light up, but it falls back into the groove and it is a dot ball, making Sutherland very lucky and Bell very unlucky. Bell ends her 20 balls with 0-19, the first time she has gone wicketless in this year's tournament. Superhcargers 100-3 (80) need 16 from 20 at 0.80 per ball, current rate 1.25 per ball.

Halfway in the chase and Superchargers are 65-3, needing 51 from the last 50 at 1.02 per ball, current rate 1.30 per ball.

Litchfield was going magnificently before the interruption but she has gone soon after the resumption, top edging an attempted sweep off Tryon to be caught by Bell. Superchargers 59-3 from 44 balls, need 57 more to win from 56 balls. Litchfield 26 (13).

Resumption due in seven minutes. No time lost as yet (and there is still 15 minutes worth of slack before we start losing time).

The rain gets too heavy and the players come off with the score 55-2 from 38 balls. Brave will want a swift resumption - DLS will not be their friend here.

Davidson-Richards goes, stumped in bizarre fashion by Southby off Villiers for 7. Superchargers 48-2 (30), need 68 more from the last 70 and 0.97 per ball, current rate 1.60 per ball.
