END OF OVER:
20 | 17 Runs 1 Wkt | ENG-W: 144/6 | RR: 7.20

  • Danielle Gibson18 (9b)
  • Sophie Ecclestone7 (3b)
  • Nida Dar4-0-33-2
  • Sadia Iqbal4-0-20-1

7.51pm So, a curious innings. A decent powerplay from Bouchier and Capsey, who struck five fours in a single over, but all fairly fallow until Sciver-Brunt and then Gibson applied the humpty.

Nat Sciver-Brunt: "Not the same wicket we're used to, tough in the middle with slow spin, hopefully our bowlers can explore that change of pace. I'd have liked to stay a bit longer but gave me some back-foot shots which I love. I'll be back bowling in a couple of weeks, maybe the ODI series."

Ranjit b: "Pak women deserve to win this, they restricted England in first game as well in the start but by end they leaked runs, today they have bowled well."

Alan will be here for the chase shortly.

Nida Dar to Gibson, FOUR, reverses the hands, and nailed through deep third! That's the big finish, 17 off the over, and a total of 144 for 6 ought to be enough for England, you'd think...

Nida Dar to Jones, OUT, lovely flight, dipping as Jones charges! The bails are flicked off in a trice, as Dar becomes the outright chart-topper in Women's T20Is!
