    An innings of 34 off 29 balls from White Ferns veteran Sophie Devine hasn't been enough to help the Perth Scorchers win cricket's Women's Big Bash for a second time


    They've suffered an eight-wicket loss in the final to hosts Hobart, who clinched their first title.

    The Hurricanes went past the Scorchers total of 137 with five overs remaining - South African batter Lizelle Lee anchoring the chase with an unbeaten 77 off 44 balls.
