Prafulla : "How much is the break time?" 15 minutes iirc

Alex: "I think I am the best fielder, says Yadav. She is a confident young lady, isn't she?" Indeed. Said it very matter-of-factly too

Muhammad Imran : "Any Update on Pratika Rawal ? Who will replace her if she gets out of the Semi final ?" Doubt we'll be getting an answer tonight. Swarnadeep wonders if Shafali will be the replacement

Nasir: "I think this tonight victory for india will boost their confidence ahead of semi final against Unbeaten Australia "

Radha Yadav: I was nervous. Took some time due to rain. I tried to keep things simple, results came automatically. (Run outs) I think I'm the best fielder. People say so. But I do enjoy fielding. I'm always ready, it's not new. We have been practicing with the wet ball, Avishkar sir makes sure we end training sessions with wet balls. It comes with practice only. Family has come in. This is my favourite ground.

9:14pm Revised target likely to be 126, Ranjith's working shows. We'll confirm that in a bit. A long innings that, mainly because it started so late after all that rain. For a while, play seemed unlikely. India might wonder if they got out a bit too early, especially with the scary-looking ankle twist Pratika suffered on 20.6.. We await to find out whether she'll bat and what her status is. She might even need scans.

Shree Charani to Marufa Akter, 2 runs, Mishit cover drive... beats Jemimah, running and them sliding left at the edge of the infield at cover. The batters charge back for two. Brave from Charani to give it a touch of air and go length. Marufa charged down and almost swung herself out of shape as she tried to hit it too hard

No. 11 Marufa comes in for the final ball

Shree Charani to Ritu Moni, OUT, Can't repeat the shot. Falls as Jemimah takes it at mid-off. Ritu charged again, ball was right in front of her this time due to the straight line. She looked to launch it straight. Couldn't deal with the rising ball. Ballooned off the sticker.

Farhan: "I feel Radha is better option to go into semis in place of Sneh Rana"

Shree Charani to Ritu Moni, SIX, Dances down and pumps it over deep extra cover. First six of the innings. Mid-off was in. Ritu made room, got to the pitch, had enough room to swipe with a semi-flat-bat

No bat involved after the flick was beaten. Was a stock ball.F Fullish length ball landed on off, impact is on middle... and would you believe it, it'd be going over leg, Hawk-Eye projects

Yadav to Rabeya Khan, OUT, Through her! Rabeya charges early, looks to drive over mid-on and goes full-throttle. Plays down the wrong line. The full ball is around off and goes away off the pitch. Bat-pad gap breached. Middle and off hit. Keeper enjoyed it.

Shree Charani to Rabeya Khan, no run, Length on fourth, defended to cover

Radha now looking a bit concerned. She was the fielder charging in, trying to pick up the ball with her left hand while slowing down. Like Pratika, overran it a bit but no scary twist. She gathers herself and walks back a bit later
