7.25pm And, breathe! That was a whirlwind last ten overs, one that has brought India firmly back into this game. The hosts were 102 for 6 at one stage, and 153 for 7 after 40 overs. But Richa Ghosh held her own, first with Amanjot Kaur and then in an 88-run stand with Sneh Rana for the ninth wicket. Rana, too played her part smashing 33 off 24. Earlier it was all South Africa, with Mlaba and Tryon sharing five wickets between them. But Ghosh with a 77-ball 94 has given India more than a competitive total.

Chloe Tryon: [On her bowling] Yes, especially after the last game, I am happy it came off today. Just went slower, I had a few plans today. Just wanted to attack the stumps. Thought about a few plans last night. For Jemi and Harman. Both are great player of spin. Happy that the plans paid off.

Naveen Sethuram: "Rana's Contribution should be equally appreciated if India wins the match."

Aaron: "How did Kapp not bowl her 10? That seems a mistake on SA's part.."

Vishal Poojary: "Richa Ghosh's knock is on par with Beth Mooney's match winning knock from yesterday!"

de Klerk to Shree Charani, OUT, She falls first ball, but this is a top total for India. Slower offcutter outside off, she miscues her loft to extra cover but India have reached 251 after being 102 for 6 at one stage.

de Klerk to Ghosh, OUT, Oh, that looks very, very tight on height. The catch has been taken at long-on, but Ghosh has reviewed. A very high full toss on off stump, Ghosh mistimes to long-on and immediately asks the umpire for a no-ball. When she does not get it, she asks for a review. What's the verdict? Oh, fine margins. The ball was just 4cm below her waist line and that means Ghosh has to walk back for a majestic 94

de Klerk to Ghosh, 2 runs, Run out chance but Jafta fails to collect it cleanly. More mistakes from South Africa. Length on her pad, she flicks it to deep midwicket. The throw isn't great and Jafta does misses it. Ghosh has to dive in.
