Wow, what an innings (in many ways!). Beth Mooney has produced a spectacular display to haul Australia from 76 for 7. It was a masterclass from the left hander who paced it to perfection. Alana King played a major hand, too, with a half-century at No. 10 - the highest score while batting at No. 10 or lower in Women's ODIs. And a word for Kim Garth who helped settle things. For 30 overs, at least, Pakistan were brilliant with the ball led by their trio of spinners and Sidra Nawaz produced an outstanding display of wicketkeeping.

From Sampath: Australia added 145 runs after the fall of their seventh wicket today, the most by any team in an innings in Women's ODIs. Previous highest was 132 by Scotland against Bangladesh in the qualifiers earlier this year.

This will now been a huge challenge for Pakistan to chase these runs. Australia have three spinners in their side, although might wish they had a fourth now. Shashwat will be with you for the start of the chase

riddhima: "this is why australia is such a champion team. unreal stuff from the defending champions. :)"
