- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.1 joy for India and it's courtesy Radha Yadav who takes a good catch at point. This was literally hammered to point as Wolvaardt saw width and cut, but couldn't keep it down. Vastrakar gets a tad lucky, not a wicket-taking ball but that's the kind of luck you need sometimes. 43/113.4 Chetry gets that stumping, finally! Brits departs, and it is Deepti who strikes once more. She delivers this a touch slower outside off and shortens the length, too, a tad. Brits jumps down attempting an ungainly cross-batted swipe. She misses and Chetry makes no mistake this time around. 113/38.1 India had conceded just 9 off the last two overs, so Kapp felt the urge to play the big shot. And she has picked out Sajana at mid-off. The ball was hit hard, but she moved well to her right and took it well. Big, big wicket from Deepti. 75/218.6 Knocks her over! Patil keeps it on a length and the trajectory flatter on leg stump. Bosch gets across looking for a sweep, misses and the leg pole has been uprooted. 164/515.6 The simplest of catches back to the bowler and India are getting the timely strikes. Tossed up on off stump, Tryon shimmies down but is cramped for room and ends up lobbing the simplest of catches back to Radha 131/419.1 And she strikes right away. Back of a length ball well outside off, De Klerk looks to pull it straight down the ground, gets it off the toe end up of the blade and balloons straight up for Sajana to take a simple catch 164/6Extras4 (b 1, lb 1, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL177/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.85)Fall of wickets: 1-43 (Laura Wolvaardt, 4.1 ov), 2-75 (Marizanne Kapp, 8.1 ov), 3-113 (Tazmin Brits, 13.4 ov), 4-131 (Chloe Tryon, 15.6 ov), 5-164 (Anneke Bosch, 18.6 ov), 6-164 (Nadine de Klerk, 19.1 ov)
