8.01pm England's innings wasn't going anywhere but Jones' unbeaten 21-ball 40 has given them a sniff. She slammed four fours and two sixes to get England to 153 for 7. Australia were all over England up top as they lost their first three wickets inside eight overs. Sophia Dunkley, however, stood her ground and added a 55-run stand with captain Heather Knight. But England lost their way again, losing 4 for 12, before Jones provided them with a flourishing end helping her side collect 31 runs off the last two overs. Australia will fancy their chances here, no doubt. But England have something on the board. Srinidhi will be back for the first ten overs of Australia's innings.

Gardner sees Jones back away and bails out of her bowling stride

Jonassen to Gibson, OUT, Jonassen has another and Australia are all over England here! Tossed up on off, just holds on the surface a little bit.
