Thanks for your company this afternoon, these two teams will meet on Saturday in Sydney for the final of the WNCL. Join us then!
But some superb death bowling from Kath Hempenstall and Danielle Wyatt thwarted them, the Breakers losing 5/17 in those final over to come up short by 9 runs.
And when Blackwell was run out at the end of the 17th over, they only required 9 runs per over to win with 6 wickets remaining.
Despite not losing a game all season, the NSW Breakers have once again fallen short in the final. They were in the contest with Blackwell and Sthalekar at the crease and going well.
And the Vic Spirit captain Emma Inglis is presented with the trophy, a successful Twenty20 campaign for the Spirit girls, well done to them, their third straight title!
Presentations taking place, Danielle Wyatt named player of the final, an excellent 39 with the bat and 3/23 with the ball, she'll take that form back with her to the England Women's national side.
A fantastic finish to the 2011/12 Women's Twenty20 competition, a thrilling final and the Commonwealth Bank Vic Spirit have prevailed for their third title in three seasons, the only state to have won the Twenty20 title.
