- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2 full on off, and flicked with the inswing. No real power behind that shot, and that's been played in the air! Square leg keeps her eyes on the ball, and the shot has gone straight to the fielder. Shikha displays a bit of a fist-pump as India strike first 5/113.3 top-edge, and what a screamer from Deepti! Can never keep her out of this game. Full on off, and she tries to slog sweep. Not a good connection, and the ball had a fairly long air-time, but Deepti runs towards the boundary -from square leg - and takes a full-stretched catch while sliding across the ground 44/44.3 played on! Too wide outside off, and she's enticed to drive. But the ball holds it's line and takes the inside of her bat, before crashing into middle and leg. Second wicket for India! 11/26.1 chipped straight to cover! Full just outside off, and she check-drives tentatively. Ball hits the bat's top half, and it's been lobbed to the short-cover fielder. Goswami on a roll! 14/343.3 plumb! Sciver falls for 85. Full on middle, and she tries to play the paddle sweep. Misses the connection, and she's been caught right in front of middle. England all out for 161 161/1027.3 tossed up outside off and she'll be gutted as she nailed the sweep but ended up dragging it straight down deep midwicket's throat to gift her wicket 93/528.3 close and given! It was close but looked slightly high, nipped back sharply off the seam and caught her in front as she was rooted to the crease. It would have probably gone over the stumps, in all honesty 95/629 nips back sharply off the seam and given again!. Another contentious call as there may have been an inside edge, there was a sound as it passed the bat, otherwise she was rooted to the crease and the height wasn't an issue either. With no DRS available, England lose another 95/731.3 googly and trapped her plumb in front. Beautiful bowling that, sharp turn back in from outside off, she wasn't picking her out of the hand and had to hang back to watch it off the pitch and by then it was too late 108/835.2 cleaned her up! More than makes up for that no-ball but that's a terrible shot with Sciver batting so well at the other end.

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.5 out for a duck! Full on off, and she tries to play towards the leg side. Bat's face closed too early, and the leading edge takes it to cover instead. Jones dives to her left to complete a stunning catch because the ball was always going away from her 1/133.1 given! Smriti falls for 63. She can't finish the game off. Slower ball angling inwards, and she misses the leg-side nudge. Ball hits her near her boot, and that would've crashed into leg stump 140/319.1 down the leg side and that's brilliant work by the keeper! The third-umpire has been called. It was drifting down the leg side, Raut overbalanced as she missed the flick and Taylor took the bails off in a flash to find her well out 74/2Extras14 (lb 4, w 10)TOTAL162/3 (41.1 Overs, RR: 3.93)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (Jemimah Rodrigues, 1.5 ov), 2-74 (Punam Raut, 19.1 ov), 3-140 (Smriti Mandhana, 33.1 ov)
