Sophie Molineux to Harmanpreet Kaur, out Caught by Ellyse Perry!! No elevation this time and it's taken at mid-off. Flat on a length, Harmanpreet flat-bats it, doesn't get it off the middle and has to walk back after a superb knock that has given India some hope.

Sophie Molineux to Harmanpreet Kaur, SIX, dropped and six! Harmanpreet getting stuck into Molineux and the Indians are on their feet. It's a hattrick of sixes to take India in sight of 170. Hammered over extra cover, goes flat to Litchfield at deep extra cover and bursts through the reverse-cup
19.3
F
Sophie Molineux to Harmanpreet Kaur, SIX, brings up fifty with consecutive sixes! Over the wicket from Molineux to deny her the swinging room, Harmanpreet steps leg-side, swings hard and just about pops it over the long-off boundary
19.2

Sophie Molineux to Harmanpreet Kaur, SIX, clean strike down the ground! Down the pitch she comes, gets close to it and swings through the line. It flies off the middle of the bat towards the sightscreen
19
Annabel Sutherland to Jemimah Rodrigues, 1 run, another catch goes down! Carey misjudged it in the deep! Full outside off, slapped hard and straight to deep extra cover. All she needed to do was run in a couple of yards and it would've carried comfortably. But she doesn't move, turns it into a low catch and it dies on her. Fails to hold on

Annabel Sutherland to Jemimah Rodrigues, SIX, tipped over the ropes by the fielder! Slower short ball, sits up nicely and Rodrigues pulls it flat and hard. Fielder runs across from deep backward square, goes with the reverse-cup but tips it over. Rodrigues pumps her fist and lets out a big roar

Annabel Sutherland to Harmanpreet Kaur, FOUR, desperately needed this and they need a lot more! Slower one, sits up around the waist and Harmanpreet pulls it behind square. Nearly went all the way!

Sophie Molineux to Harmanpreet Kaur, 2 runs, slow on the pads, full toss and Harmanpreet misses out as she drags it behind square
16.4

Kim Garth to Harmanpreet Kaur, FOUR, lucky runs! A slower ball floated up right in the slot, it's a leg-cutter that grips and turns, finds a thick edge on the slog and races away past the keeper
15.5

Georgia Wareham to Harmanpreet Kaur, FOUR, goes with the turn and carves it inside out over extra! Was too full from Wareham and got punished for it
15.2
Georgia Wareham to Jemimah Rodrigues, no run, given out LBW, Rodrigues reviews! She feels that it has pitched outside leg, and it might well be the case. Slow on a length, keeps low and sneaks under the bat as she looks to pull hard. Ball-tracking confirms it has pitched outside leg. Watching the replay, the South African players react with great disappointment on the balcony

Annabel Sutherland to Harmanpreet Kaur, FOUR, oh what timing from Harman! Some width on offer, she cuts sweetly and it zips across the outfield through backward point
13.3

Lucy Hamilton to Harmanpreet Kaur, FOUR, short outside off, width on offer and Harmanpreet carves it away over backward point. Had the opportunity to free the arms and didn't back down

Georgia Wareham to Jemimah Rodrigues, out Smriti Mandhana Run Out!! Big mix-up and Mandhana is left stranded. She just took off for the single while her partner hadn't even moved. Rodrigues says she didn't hear the call and because she was playing the reverse-sweep, her back was turned to her. Mandhana doesn't say anything, she just taps Rodrigues on the shoulder and walks off. It was reverse-swept to backward point, would've been a tight single anyway, and the mix-up meant that there was no way back for the left-handed opener. Not the first time Rodrigues has been involved in a run-out. Smriti Mandhana run out (Lucy Hamilton/Georgia Wareham) 38(37) [4s-6]
10.5

Annabel Sutherland to Smriti Mandhana, FOUR, gets hold of it this time. Clear intent in this over from Mandhana to take on Sutherland. Slower one floated into the slot, she makes room, swings hard and hammers it wide of mid-off
10.1
Annabel Sutherland to Smriti Mandhana, no run, review taken for LBW from Australia! Think this has pitched outside leg from over the wicket, but let's see. It's a poor choice of shot from Mandhana. Goes back to a length ball and tries to pull it away. It sneaks through to hit the back leg, but as expected, the ball is clearly pitching outside leg
9.3
4
Sophie Molineux to Jemimah Rodrigues, FOUR, follows that up with a superb shot over the cover fielder. Tossed up outside off and Rodrigues lofts it over the circle to get a boundary
9.1
W
Sophie Molineux to Shafali Verma, out Bowled!! Where was Sophie Molineux all this time?! Straight at the off stump and Verma makes room to go over the off-side but fails to get any bat to it. Plays this tossed-up delivery down the wrong line as the ball grips a touch and she sees the off stump getting disturbed. The right-hander has played her part though and has given India a good start. Shafali Verma b Sophie Molineux 34(26) [4s-3 6s-2]

Ashleigh Gardner to Shafali Verma, FOUR, now times this low full-toss through the off side and gets a boundary towards sweeper cover. The two batters were caught ball watching and collided with each other. Luckily no harms done
8.4
6
Ashleigh Gardner to Shafali Verma, SIX, clobbered! The right-hander goes down on her knee and slog-sweeps it over deep mid-wicket for a six. Her second of the match
7.1
Annabel Sutherland to Shafali Verma, wide, short and way down the leg side, Verma sees that early and ducks under it. The wide brings up the 50-run between these two
6.1
4
Georgia Wareham to Smriti Mandhana, FOUR, flatter and width on offer, Smriti Mandhana plays it late and guides it between backward point and point for a boundary
5.3
4
Kim Garth to Shafali Verma, FOUR, that's smart from Shafali Verma! Short and wide, Verma waits for it and opens the face of the blade to guide it to the right of the short third for a boundary
4.5
4
Ellyse Perry to Smriti Mandhana, FOUR, she does get bat on this one and collects a boundary. Another short delivery into the surface and Mandhana rolls her wrists into the pull and gets an easy boundary towards deep square leg
3.5

Ashleigh Gardner to Shafali Verma, SIX, Verma is going after Gardner and is doing it really well. Just over 80kph outside off, full and Verma hammers it over long-off for first six of the contest

1.3

Kim Garth to Smriti Mandhana, FOUR, this one is more controlled as the bowler keeps the same line and length and Mandhana works it to deep mid-wicket for back-to-back boundaries
1.2
4
Kim Garth to Smriti Mandhana, FOUR, that has raced away to deep mid-wicket for a boundary! Don't think she timed it really well but it went to the fence at some pace as it was going down the slope. Length ball on the pads and the left-hander brings the bottom hand into play, whips it to the left of the mid-wicket fielder
