Newton's best work had been done by the end of the first quarter, during which he followed up his two-yard rushing score on the Panthers' opening drive with a two-yard strike to Robby Anderson on his team's next possession. Haris Rauf in between took the wicket of Mahmudullah, edging to wicket-keeper for 12, as the home team was 82-5 in 14th over. Max Allegri's side remain way off the pace in the league and sit 11 points behind Napoli and AC Milan despite playing a game more. Sam May pushed Kim Borger off her game, while Beth Cobden's long arms and relentless hustle, played havoc in the goal third and that limited Bath's options.
