- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.5 toe-ends a lofted hit straight to captain Haynes at cover. Wyatt was looking to hit everything, the length was on the fuller side, couldn't control this hit and has to make the walk back. 26/16.3 plumb in front and that is because she missed a full-blooded sweep to a full delivery that drifted in and held its line. Would've knocked out middle of middle. As far as lbw decisions go, it can't get easier than that 40/212.1 a direct hit from Kimmince at the bowler's end from backward point and Taylor's gone. Sliced this lofted hit and she took off for a non-existent run. Wow, outstanding stuff. Could that be the difference between 140 and 160? 85/316.4 flat-bats this straight to Haynes at cover. The bat face turned in her so it skewed up. The bounce did the trick for Perry who hit the deck hard. End of a superb cameo from Sciver 119/417.3 full, straight and gone. Hint of late inward movement, Knight played all around this and saw the stumps rattled. 128/519.1 right through. Short of length and veering in from wide of the crease, she looked to swing this across the line but played too early and missed.

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.3 this is a stunning effort, a direct hit at the bowler's end from cover and Mooney is caught short by an inch if not more. Jenny Gunn anticipated the ball superbly and the release was right out of the top drawer. That should lift England as Australia were starting to set themselves up superbly. 45/17.3 make that three in the space of four runs. This is superb accuracy and a subtle change in pace from Gunn, slightly slower and outside off, Healy looked to go across the line and clear long-on but hit it straight down the throat of the fielder there. Australia in real trouble now 49/36.4 MS Dhoni-esque stumping from Sarah Taylor. Stunning work. Simply had a split-second between collecting the ball and whipping the bails off. Villani went for a full-blooded sweep to a delivery that wasn't all that short, missed it completely. She was a yard or two outside the crease and by the time she turned around, the bails had been whipped out. 47/28.1 this is a body blow. Perry shapes back to pull but this ball held on to the pitch and bounced higher than she anticipated. She went through with the stroke but only managed to chop on 52/413.2 steps out and drills this straight to extra cover. Didn't get the elevation she wanted to get a boundary as Sciver takes a straightforward catch. 90/610 holes out to deep midwicket. Looking to clear the longer boundary but didn't time and this was as simple as catches come. 65/514 arm-ball and gone. Looks to slog this across the line but didn't get underneath this full delivery. Darted in to smash into the stumps once the batsman missed. 93/717.1 slog swept straight to Sciver at deep midwicket. Excellent anticipation. This was a flat hit but swirled slightly with the breeze. She was nice and low and saw this lodge into her hands quite comfortably. 110/915.3 close and given this time. Went too far across to work this to the leg side but this slower delivery drifted in towards middle. Aley played all around her front pad. That would've crashed into middle and leg 104/818 looking to play a cheeky reverse paddle, misses this full and straight delivery that knocks out the middle stump. Jenny Gunn finishes with four wickets as England have leveled the T20 series at 1-1. 112/10Extras10 (lb 5, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL112 all out (18 Overs, RR: 6.22)Fall of wickets: 1-45 (Beth Mooney, 5.3 ov), 2-47 (Elyse Villani, 6.4 ov), 3-49 (Alyssa Healy, 7.3 ov), 4-52 (Ellyse Perry, 8.1 ov), 5-65 (Ashleigh Gardner, 9.6 ov), 6-90 (Rachael Haynes, 13.2 ov), 7-93 (Delissa Kimmince, 13.6 ov), 8-104 (Sarah Aley, 15.3 ov), 9-110 (Jess Jonassen, 17.1 ov), 10-112 (Molly Strano, 17.6 ov)
