2.40pm Righto, that's a mammoth total posted by India: 435 for 5! The innings was setup brilliantly by the two openers Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal, who posted a 233-run stand off 160 balls. Mandhana was the aggressor of the two finishing on 135 off 80, her century the fastest by an Indian. Rawal and Richa Ghosh then added 104 off 72 for the second wicket, with Rawal posting her maiden ODI century. She was eventually dismissed for 154 off 129 as India crossed 400 in a canter. How many can Ireland muster in their innings? Join us in a bit to find out.

Mike: "Laura Delany in the dressing room now: "Reckon, they are 15 short...." IYKYK"

Bryan: "Extras 29. that's a good contribution to the total by the Irish! "

Pratika Rawal: [On her century] Just going ball by ball, not thinking much in terms of what I have to score. I was just going step by step. [On slowing down for the ton] That's true. I was a bit slow when I was on 78, those 20-25 runs came a bit slow. I will work on that. But I covered up later. [Mandhana's knock] It is always a treat to watch her. She clears her shots very well, and with immense power. And it is okay to take a backseat. She hit a lot of sixes. [On her shot selection] There was not going much in my mind. We wanted to cross 400 and it was good we finished on 430, so good stuff. [On her partnership with Mandhana] No magic. We are very comfortable with each other. We are not thinking of the records, we were just going ball-by-ball.

Prendergast to Hasabnis, OUT, Oh, that's a soft dismissal. Slower bouncer outside off, Hasabnis backs away but is undone by the lack of pace. She was looking to ramp this finer, ends up bumping it straight to point for a simple catch

With two more overs to go, Ireland will be forced to have an extra fielder inside the circle due to slow over-rate
