Opening bowler Claire Nolte was the main destroyer finishing the match with figures of five overs, one maiden, 3-6.

Skipper Molineux added to her batting effort with the ball, collecting 2-4 off her five overs, which included three maidens.

Victoria Invitation XI went down again losing to Tasmania in their final match by two wickets.
