    1.2 Oh, Amanda Jade-Wellington that is a stunning catch! Good length ball just around off stump. Perrin looks to go downtown, gets a decent connection. For the longest time it feels the ball will evade mid-off, but Jade-Wellington hares back and puts in a dive to her right to take a brilliant catch 8/1
    5.4 CLEANS HER UP! The decision to keep Slater on has paid dividend. On a length on middle, Armitage looks to go across the line, misses and sees her stumps disturbed 35/2
    12.3 Slog swept and long-on has taken a super catch diving forward. The catch will be checked, but on first viewing it looked like the ball carried straight in. Ooh, this might be closer than what it looks. Floated on the stumps, she gets too close to the pitch of it, and slams this flat at long-on. MacDonald-Gay has her fingers under the ball....just about and Litchfield has to go 85/3

    17.3 Miscues it big time and mid-off takes a simple catch. Slows this down outside off. Heath looks to go over mid-off, does not get it anywhere close to the middle of the bat and Villiers takes the catch with glee 127/4

    3.5 taken at long-on! Right on the edge of the boundary! Athapaththu in disbelief. She saw this one tossed up, and landing on a fullish length around off. She went for the slog, and connected nicely, but not well enough, as Cross took it with a reverse cup above her head. Another step behind, and this was a certain six 22/4
    0.3 a confident appeal for lbw, and given! Winfield-Hill has a word with Athapaththu, but eventually walks back. Again Cross bowled the inswinger, as it landed on the shorter side of a length around middle and off. The ball nipped back in to strike her front pad, as she looked to go deep in the crease and whip, but missed 1/1

    1.3 ohhh, bowled her! Superb response from Smith. She saw Capsey skip down the pitch, and slowed it down to bowl on the shorter side of a length on middle and off. The ball went on with the the angle, and struck the stumps, as Capsey looked to punch but missed, as the ball went in the gap between bat and pad 11/2
    2.3 Kapp is run-out! And she walks even before the third umpire confirms it. Higham slows it down again, and bowls on a short of a length while angling into off. Athapaththu punched it to cover, as Litchfield moved and dived to her left to cut it off. She threw at the keeper's end, with Kapp's dive in vain 11/3
    9.4 bowled her! Schofield falls in looking to repeat the sweep, while playing across the line. But this time the ball is a bit loopy, and the length is on the fuller side of middle and off. She goes slog sweeping again, but this time misses, as the ball hits the off stump 55/6
    4.2 cleans her up! Cross bowls a very similar ball to what got her her first wicket today. A first-ball duck for Villiers. The ball hits the inner side of the middle stump, as Villiers looks to lean into this attempted push. But I think the length was a bit short to facilitate that shot, with the ball landing around middle and off, and shaping in nicely 23/5
    12.1 bowled her! A yorker fired on middle and off, and Wellington misses it. The ball was swinging in, and though Wellington was deep in the crease with her front leg out of the way, she misses after looking to slash. Invincibles are all but done, as Sutherland strikes 64/7

    12.2 gone first ball! Sutherland is on a hat-trick! The inward movement with which Cross got two wickets today is now also evident for Sutherland. The latter went on a short of a length while swinging it in, as the ball landed on middle and off, and hit the the stumps on the higher side, as the batter leaned into a push 64/8
    12.4 three bowled wickets in the space of four balls! That sound of the ball hitting the stumps has been playing so often this innings. This hits the top of middle, as Smale leaves a gap between bat and pad while looking to push at this length ball landing outside off. But again the ball is hooping around sharply, and angles in to hit middle 64/9
    13.1 gone again! A dream day for Sutherland, who must have never heard this lovely sound of ball crashing into the stumps so often in the space of just a few deliveries. She leads her side off the field, with her latest wicket ball cannoning into the top of off. She bowled on a length while swinging it in considerably, as Slater went slogging across the line, but missed 64/10
