Welcome back. Richa has not taken the field and it will be Taniya Bhatia to keep wicket. A slip in for Vastrakar as she runs in. Devine on strike...

Devine: It is good to know that we scored 275 on this the other day, certainly going to take a lot of confidence. The outfield is beautiful, the wicket is pretty flat, so we know we can chase it. The Indians were pretty circumspect early on, put away the bad balls - that's how we will go about it. Changes of pace were pretty important, I thought we fielded poorly - put down 5 or 6 chances which could've restricted them a lot more. We set ourselves high standards and today was not one of them. We have to flush it down and move on. The great thing about this side is that there's a number of leaders who can lead. It does not matter who is captain as such. It is nice to see Amy help out and also Suzie has got a bit of experience with captaincy, pretty fortunate to be in that position.

Neil: "Good death bowling from New Zealand. With India in a good position of 203/4 after 40 overs the New Zealand bowlers did very well to restrict them to just 67 runs from the last 10 overs and just 32 runs from the last 5 overs. India weren't really able to put the accelerator on at the end of their innings." --- still India's highest score vs New Zealand in ODIs.

2.23pm: A good score by India batting first. The top four got starts and again it was Mithali who anchored the innings with a fifty, the others chipped in with Richa being the aggressor with 65. She damaged her right-leg while running and despite struggling along, she kept the scoreboard moving during that partnership with her captain. Richa struck timely boundaries and eased the pressure on Mithali who was looking to bat through the innings. Earlier, Meghana and Shafali started off by putting on a 61-run partnership which laid the base for the others. New Zealand were sloppy in the field and put down a number of chances. A rare off-day for them there. Is 270 enough? Back for the chase in 25 minutes...

Round the wicket to Deepti

Martin is ready after some tape on the injured finger

Huss: "Sophie not completing her quota of 10 today seems like an oversight on the part of the captain.."

Aneketh Chellam: "In the midst of all this heated discussion on Mithali Raj, no one seems to be questioning Harmanpreet Kaur for being a constant failure since 2017 WC. Always Mithali Raj is being made the scapegoat."
