Well, who would have thought it? The best team in the competition, won the competition. Congratulations to Surrey Women, who like their male counterparts 22 years ago, beat the Bears to win the inaugural Women's Vitality Blast. Jarleth Eaton and Cam McFarlane take you through the story of the day in this edition of the T20 Blast Podcast, from Cam flying in from Prague very delicate early in the morning, to the Bears beating The Blaze in the Eliminator, to ultimately Surrey proving why they topped the league and winning the first Women's Blast Finals Day on home soil at The Kia Oval. You'll also hear from special guest Rosa Simkin from Rosa Talks Ball, as well as Bears batter Sterre Kallis and defeated Blaze captain Kirsty Gordon on their thoughts on the Eliminator. Plus, Issy Wong of the Bears and Grace Harris of Surrey join the show to give their reaction to the final. Thanks for listening throughout the Women's Vitality Blast summer, and we can't wait to talk you through the action again in 2026.

After two months of league action, we've reached the first ever Women's Vitality Blast Finals Day.

They look back on the final week of Blast action, and look at how Surrey, The Blaze and Bears each made the showpiece event. Jar, Cam and Rosa then look at where the day will be won and lost, plus give their predictions for who will ultimately be the first ever Women's Vitality Blast winners. Plus, Rosa gives her thoughts ahead of the League 2 Finals Day at Northampton on a massive weekend for Women's Cricket, and discusses how this season has gone for the game as the teams fully align with the Men's County system.
