The Superchargers crawled to 100-8 with flyhalf Marie Kelly making 39, while Georgia Adams took 3-21.
What else do you need to know? Former England bowler Anya Shrubsole rolled back the years with two key power-play wickets. She beat India's Jemimah Rodrigues with an in-swinger before finding Phoebe Litchfield's batting edge to pull out Australian batter for a duck. Shrubsole took 2-13 on 20 balls.

The 22-year-old is playing effectively as a specialist goaltender with her batting record at 10 in this game and 11 in Brave's previous game.

Brave flyhalf Smriti Mandhana made 19 before falling to spinner Linsey Smith. It's the first time Mandhana hasn't made it half a century into this year's tournament, after scores of 55 and 70 not eliminated.
