- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.2 Three in three for Goud vs Healy! The field change works and India break through. Full and just outside off, Healy looks to go over the off side. The bat turns in her hand and all she can do is chip a catch to Harmanpreet, who takes it with fingers pointing skywards and falls on her back. The Australia captain cannot believe it and Goud has her for thrice in three games 43/121.1 Top edge and Rana breaks the 107-run partnership! A 50th ODI wicket for her. A half-tracker down leg, Voll looks to swipe it across the line. She loses her balance and shape, gets a top edge. Chetry, the sub, settles herself under the skier at short fine leg and takes it safely. A fantastic innings from Voll comes to an end. Finally a ray of hope for India, even if Australia have a deep line-up 150/232.6 sharp grab at long on, and India finally have some respite! In the slot just outside off and Perry thinks she can go downtown. Chunks it off the inside half of the bat, though, and the bat also turns upon contact. Arrows it towards Goud, who runs in and then lunges forward to complete the catch. Much-needed wicket for India, and they will hope to now capitalize on this! 256/344.3 Chaos and drama all around here, and has Mooney been run out?! Full just outside off. Harris jabs it back to the bowler, who fields it and then hurls a throw at the other end. Hits the stumps and the ball rolls away, allowing a single via the overthrow. Mooney is intent on the second too, but is sent back by Harris. She is well out of her ground when Ghosh collects the throw but because the stumps had been disturbed earlier, she might have had time to get back. The key detail now is whether one bail was still on the stumps. If that was the case, then Ghosh has definitely done enough. Looks like the second bail was not dislodged by Deepti's throw, and that means Mooney is caught well short of her crease. For what it is worth, Mooney did not realize that she could have a prayer there and the replays do suggest that Ghosh had uprooted the stump as well in time, if it had come to that. A magnificent knock comes to an end, and perhaps a run-out was the only way India would have gotten her out today! 379/640.2 miscued this time, and Gardner falls! This is full outside off and seems like a bit of a change-up. Despite long off now being in place, Gardner chances her luck but cuts across her shot a little too much. Radha, stood well inside the fence, has a bit of a bobble with the chance but makes sure she holds on. An enterprising cameo by Gardner, but she cannot help herself to a half-century! 338/444.2 big lbw shout, and the finger goes up! And McGrath reviews! Zipped in very full on middle and off. McGrath shapes for the reverse but picks too full a ball to be playing that stroke. Seems to miss it, with the ball then brushing her back leg. Seemed headed towards the stumps, but might need Ball Tracking to confirm it fully. No bat involved. Ball Tracking comes up after an enormously long wait and reckons the ball would have clipped the outside of leg stump. Umpire's Call and McGrath has to go! 378/544.6 that is an outrageous grab, and India, out of nowhere, have three wickets! Floated up full just outside off. Harris plants her front foot and smashes it back towards Deepti. She flings out her left mitt and makes it stick right in the centre of her palms. Astonishing catch that and Australia, all of a sudden, are seven down! 380/746.3 Wareham bites the dust, and Renuka has two! Another very slow delivery, bowled at 72.6kph. Short too and Wareham thinks she can crash this over cover. Has no pace to work with whatsoever, though, and only manages a tame chip straight to Harmanpreet at extra cover. Wareham is disappointed as she walks off; Renuka, meanwhile, heaves a sigh of relief! 399/847.5 in the air and taken at deep mid wicket! Australia end up with 412, and this is their joint-highest team total in women's ODIs! Right in the slot just outside off. There to be hit and King gives it all she has. Does not muster the timing or the power she wants, though, and only gets height. Rana settles under it at deep mid wicket and does the rest. Australia bowled out with 13 balls left in the innings! 412/1047.2 another sharp return catch, and Australia are nine down! Full in and around off stump. Stops a little in the surface and Garth cannot check her shot enough. Straight back at Reddy and she does well to hold on to it smartly. Second wicket for her, and Australia in real danger of being bowled out here! 406/9Extras11 (nb 4, w 7)TOTAL412 all out (47.5 Overs, RR: 8.61)Fall of wickets: 1-43 (Alyssa Healy, 4.2 ov), 2-150 (Georgia Voll, 21.1 ov), 3-256 (Ellyse Perry, 32.6 ov), 4-338 (Ashleigh Gardner, 40.2 ov), 5-378 (Tahlia McGrath, 44.2 ov), 6-379 (Beth Mooney, 44.3 ov), 7-380 (Grace Harris, 44.6 ov), 8-399 (Georgia Wareham, 46.3 ov), 9-406 (Kim Garth, 47.2 ov), 10-412 (Alana King, 47.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.3 Garth breaks through. Rawal's home run ends at just ten! Australia have been cutting her favourable angles by having slip and gully. It pays off. Garth bowls it on a length outside off, Rawal looks to cut it past gully, almost a wide second slip, but hits it straight to her. It flies low to Mooney, who takes a good sharp catch. Early strike for Australia 32/121.1 In the air.... and Mandhana departs! Pin-drop silence at the Kotla. And not one of the greatest deliveries from Harris that. Loopy ball around off, Mandhana looks to deposit it into the orbit, only gets a top edge that settles into Gardner's hand at deep backward square leg. An anticlimactic end to what was a spectacular innings. Mandhana was in trouble against a similar delivery in Harris' first over, this time it brings an end to her innings. Australia right back in this now as India have lost Harmanpreet and Mandhana in successive overs 216/48.4 Deol connects the pull but straight to the fielder! Short ball again, instead of going through the off side where there are no fielders outside the ring, she looks to pull it over the leg side. Finds Mooney stationed at deep backward square leg to perfection. Schutt finds a way to strike 85/220.1 Huge appeal and the finger goes up! Harmanpreet opts for the review. Garth bowls it on a length around off, it is a cross-seam delivery. Harmanpreet hangs back to heave it across the line but misses on the under-edge and is hit on the back thigh. Looks adjacent, the ball-tracker confirms it. India lose their captain as well as review. That injury break disrupted her momentum and the 121-run stand comes to an end 206/342.3 holes out to deep mid wicket, and Indian hearts sink - at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, and around the country! This is banged into the track outside off and seems like some kind of change-up. Deepti's eyes light up and she swipes at it with all her might. She does not have as much pace to work with, though, and arrows it off the toe-end. Knott settles under it, kneels down and gobbles up the chance. Deepti persevered and persevered, but now, someone else will have to take India past the finish line! 354/823.1 Ghosh is out of her crease, did King get a hand on that? India's wicketkeeper knows and she is walking back... Floated full on middle, Deepti drills it straight back. King dives to stop it but gets a finger to it - confirmed by the TV umpire - and Ghosh is out of her ground. This is unfortunate for her and India are in trouble now 231/528.6 Radha goes for the big hit, and that ploy falls flat on its face! Dangles the carrot on leg stump and Radha bites. She hares down, looking to go over long on but gets too close to the ball because of her charge. Cannot get under it enough and she picks out Voll to absolute perfection at long on. Radha puts her hand on her helmet soon after, and that could be a vital wicket at this stage for Australia! 261/633.3 massive lbw shout, and the finger goes up! Reddy wants to review, though! Fizzed through on a length just outside off. Nice drift away from the batter before dropping on Reddy. Grip off the surface too and the ball spins back sharply. Goes past her sweeping blade and raps her on the right forearm, in front of middle and off. Was this doing too much? Reddy could have a case here. There are murmurs all the way through on UltraEdge but there seems to be a gap between bat and ball, and the ball and glove throughout. The biggest and most clear spike is when the ball hits the forearm. No bat or glove involved. All eyes on Ball Tracking now. It comes up and...reckons the ball would have clipped the outside of leg stump. Umpire's Call and Gardner finally has a wicket tonight! 289/745.3 has Healy done enough this time?! Zipped in very full into the pads, and this is a response to Rana walking down. She cannot get her bat down in time and misses. Healy, who has had a tough day behind the stumps, fumbles her collection at the first go, but recovers in time to whip off the bails. There was a sense of frustration in that action too, and Rana was so far down that she could not make it back. India nine down! 364/946.6 There it is! India pushed and probed, they pressed and persevered, they rattled the Australian cage and then some, but in the end, India fall short of what would have been a historic night in women's cricket! This is a slower ball and like most batters in recent overs, Renuka does not pick it quick enough. She swings for the fences but her shot lacks the power to clear the fence. Voll charges in from long on and dives forward to snap up the chance. Australia are all smiles, and those smiles, apart from being of accomplishment, would be of relief. They put up a mountain of runs, but India, almost, scaled that peak! 369/10Extras20 (b 1, w 19)TOTAL369 all out (47 Overs, RR: 7.85)Fall of wickets: 1-32 (Pratika Rawal, 3.3 ov), 2-85 (Harleen Deol, 8.4 ov), 3-206 (Harmanpreet Kaur, 20.1 ov), 4-216 (Smriti Mandhana, 21.1 ov), 5-231 (Richa Ghosh, 23.1 ov), 6-261 (Radha Yadav, 28.6 ov), 7-289 (Arundhati Reddy, 33.3 ov), 8-354 (Deepti Sharma, 42.3 ov), 9-364 (Sneh Rana, 45.3 ov), 10-369 (Renuka Singh, 46.6 ov)
