5-21 June
Australia, after being put into bat by England in the Women's World Twenty20 semi-final at The Oval, make an excellent start thanks to openers Leah Poulton and Shelley Nitschke (above) and are 39-0 after five overs
Nicky Shaw shows her frustration as the Australians, seeking to stop England adding the Twenty20 crown to their 50-over world title, continue to make good progress
Holly Colvin finally makes the breakthrough, having Nitschke caught behind by Sarah Taylor for 37 off 25 balls and Australia are 78-1 in the ninth over
Slow bowler Laura Marsh gives England a second wicket when she bowls Poulton with the first ball of the next over but Australia are still on top
Australia's experienced captain Karen Rolton fires one six and four fours in a quickfire 38 before Shaw has her caught on the boundary
Alex Blackwell tries to add vital runs at the death but sees her stumps rearranged by Jenny Gunn, however, Australia finish on a challenging 163-5
England hit 22 off the first two overs but then lose Sarah Taylor for six after the prolific opener chips into the hands of Lisa Sthaleker off Rene Farrell
Australia scent victory when Ellyse Perry picks up the vital wicket of England captain Charlotte Edwards, who is caught behind for 25
The pressure falls on Claire Taylor, player of the tournament at the World Cup earlier this year and one of Wisden's five cricketers of the year, to try and revive England's run chase
Taylor finds a perfect partner in Beth Morgan and together they share a century stand as England close on their target - although Morgan needs treatment after top-edging the ball into her jaw
Only four runs are needed at the start of the final over and Taylor (left) and Morgan knock them off with three balls to spare to see England to a magnificent eight-wicket victory
Player of the Match Taylor is mobbed by her team-mates as England begin to look forward to a trip to Lord's where they will face New Zealand in a repeat of the World Cup final
