Kia Oval Talking Points: Paige Scholfield's brutal knock and Yorkshire's controversial five-run penalty

The Cricketer looks at the main talking points from the Women's One Day Cup game between Surrey and Yorkshire at the Kia Oval

Movement That Inspires play of the day

Yorkshire were going nicely in their innings at 131 for 2, with Lauren Winfield-Hill and Sterre Kalis coming together for a 74-run partnership. 

But shortly after, albeit with a run break in between, they were bowled out for 185. 

The pair fell to Maitlan Brown in the space of three balls, but most damagingly, the last four wickets fell with the score on 185.

Alice Davidson-Richards had Erin Thomas (7) caught before Kalea Moore removed Beth Langston (4) and Claudie Cooper (0) in a double-wicket maiden. The second of which came from Davidson-Richard's juggled catch, which she finally caught on the third attempt.

The innings was then finished off when Rachel Slater was bowled by Tilly Courteen-Colman.

While the target was revised, adding eight runs, due to the rain, the speed at which Yorkshire's effort was eventually ended was crushing for the away side. 

Take The Lead, Drive Electric moment of the day

There was potential for this to be a trick chase for Surrey, given the poor forecast. The slightly lower targets are never as easy as they seem. 

But Paige Schofield put that to bed rather quickly as she hammered a 25-ball half-century. The milestone included two huge sixes and nine fours.

She was brutal on anything short and capitalised on a sloppy fielding effort from the visitors. 

More importantly, however, she kicked on to make it a match-winning score. 

She was eventually dismissed by Maddie Ward, but after making a brutal 89 off 42 balls.

It opened the door a touch for Yorkshire, who surged back with three wickets from Maddie Ward and another for Beth Langston. 

The damage was done, however, as the hosts held on to complete the win. 

Yorkshire's five-run penalty adds a layer of controversy

Surrey started their pursuit of Yorkshire's total with five runs already on the board. 

This was because the visitors were handed a penalty following Winfield-Hill's dismissal in the first innings. 

The wicketkeeper-batter was adjudged to have been caught behind off Maitlan Brown for 60, but disputed the umpire's decision both as she walked off and once she made it to the changing room. 

This included signalling for the third umpire, which is not available to players during the Women's One Day Cup, and making her dissatisfaction audibly clear.  

After a consultation between the umpires, the decision was announced to the crowd. 

Replays, not available to standing umpires Hassan Adnan and James Tredwell, did suggest that the ball was quite far from the bat. Although dissent does not rely upon the correctness of the decision. 

As the game got closer, those five extra runs proved vital to Surrey's win.
