- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR19.5 reverse-scooped to short third and Beaumont goes for 97! Got into position early looking to get it up and over the fielder in tight but didn't get the connection she was after and Halliday took a straightforward catch. Falls short of the ton but a super innings all the same. 180/42.5 gallop, gallop, spang! Wyatt comes rumbling down the track, has a hack, misses everything, 41mph through the air. The keeper whips off the bails. An enterprising knock ends in a rush 31/19.5 beaten by a beauty! Wicket-to-wicket line, plinking the top of middle as Sciver opens the face but with her feet stuck in mud. That's an important breakthrough 74/213.6 over the wicket, and bingo. Jones charges, the angle into the gap allows the ball to wriggle through the gate, and that's a very timely wicket. Is it timely enough? 127/3Extras5 (nb 1, w 4)TOTAL184/4 (20 Overs, RR: 9.2)Fall of wickets: 1-31 (Danni Wyatt-Hodge, 2.5 ov), 2-74 (Nat Sciver-Brunt, 9.5 ov), 3-127 (Amy Jones, 13.6 ov), 4-180 (Tammy Beaumont, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.4 full and straight, whacked on the pad as Devine plays across the line, and umpire Redfern gives it! Devine reviews after a brief conversation with Bates. No bat involved, clipping leg stump so the on-field decision is upheld. Farrant strikes early 4/12.2 knocks her over! The Smash Sisters last 2.2 overs between them. Cross-seamer, nips back and beats Bates' inside edge. Pegs back leg stump and New Zealand are in all sorts 4/212.3 back-of-the-hand slower ball, swung out into the deep... and Villiers holds on diving forwards, running in off the midwicket boundary! Good grab and Brunt roars in celebration with a double fist-pump. Game over. 82/67.6 fired in short... speccie from Farrant at deep backward square! Quick drag-down from Ecclestone, into the pitch. Green swings it out towards the rope but Farrant flings herself in and to her right, clinging onto a tumbling catch. Ends a useful partnership 52/310.2 cleaned up! Full and straight, Martin skips down looking to whip to leg but yorks herself, and it flicks off the front pad and into off stump 67/411.1 cleaned up! Arm ball, no turn for Villiers but full and straight from round the wicket. Halliday looked to push into the leg side for one but it flicked her back on the way through and crashed into the stumps 70/514.3 through her this time! A bit fuller as Jensen skipped down, looking for a mow over midwicket, and it skipped on, crashing into the top of the stumps 98/717.6 thumped straight to Sciver on the edge of the ring at extra cover, who throws at the keeper's end while down on her knees. Jones whips the bails off, lightning-fast as ever, and Newton is short of her ground 133/916.3 thickish edge, blinding take by Jones up to the stumps! Brilliant keeping. Rowe threw the kitchen sink at this, looking to go over the leg side, but got a thick outside edge, low on the bat, and Jones make a very difficult chance look simple 116/818.5 all over red rover! More impressive glovework from the exceptional Jones. Kasperek skips down but is beaten by the quicker one which flies between bat and body. Jones is unsighted but whips the bails off for a sharp stumping, and England win by 46 138/10Extras11 (b 8, lb 1, w 2)TOTAL138 all out (18.5 Overs, RR: 7.32)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Sophie Devine, 1.4 ov), 2-4 (Suzie Bates, 2.2 ov), 3-52 (Maddy Green, 7.6 ov), 4-67 (Katey Martin, 10.2 ov), 5-70 (Brooke Halliday, 11.1 ov), 6-82 (Amy Satterthwaite, 12.3 ov), 7-98 (Hayley Jensen, 14.3 ov), 8-116 (Hannah Rowe, 16.3 ov), 9-133 (Thamsyn Newton, 17.6 ov), 10-138 (Leigh Kasperek, 18.5 ov)
