8:56pm 180 was probably the order of the evening, and MI have almost gotten that many. Most of that was down to Harmanpreet, who mustered her fourth half-century against the Giants and batted superbly. There were handy cameos from Amanjot, Matthews and Sciver-Brunt as well, which ensured MI never went through a massively elongated lull.

The Giants, meanwhile, were largely accurate and stuck to their guns, barring perhaps the final few overs. Gardner was the pick of the bunch, with Mishra also enhancing her reputation. Gautam took a bit of tap at the death, with Kanwar and Dottin also expensive. They will back themselves to chase this down, given their batting firepower but would have ideally wanted to chase a smaller score. Join us in a bit for the chase!

Nat Sciver-Brunt, who is also the Orange Cap holder now: It was a good wicket, a bit of swing at the start. They bowled in some good areas and made it difficult for us. Harmanpreet staying there and then a few lower-order runs got us to a good total. Hopefully we can get some shape as well, and a bit of seam for me and Shabnim, and hopefully we can create mistakes (from the batters). This is probably the quickest outfield. In the field, making that effort as a team to stop every ball - that will be important. (On shouldering responsibility) I love to play cricket that way, love to be involved in the game. The more chances I get to influence the game, I am happy.

Md: "What maturity in young Amanjot's batting that was."

Sajana is the new batter in. This is a situation cut out for her, can she cash in?
