The crowd was up from 821 on Saturday, a great result as Wagga's thirst for top-flight cricket only grew as the sweltering weekend wore on.
The heat proved to be nothing a sea of tents, umbrellas, deck chairs and cold drinks couldn’t fix.
The Adelaide Strikers prevailed in a super over thriller after both sides finished with 114 runs on the board.
The Thunder required just five runs to win off the final over, but Sophie Devine restricted them to a paltry four, forcing the game to a tie-breaker.
It followed Sydney’s defiant day one victory, which saw the women in lime green finish at 4-148, before Adelaide was dismissed for 111 in the 20th over.
