- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR42.3 Chops a horizontal cover drive onto the stumps. It was full and wide, maybe not enough to extend the arms freely. The pace or its lack of may have placed a part as well. The feet didn't move and the ball went off the bottom edge onto the stumps. Bates gets a well-deserved standing ovation 211/55.3 Bowled her!. It was a 74 kmph ball that came down at a relatively flatter trajectory. Bates was on the move and tried to flick it with a fully closed bat-face. She looked to have been in two minds, going for a defensive shot after considering a harder hit. Anam is chufffed! 31/118.1 Slog swept in the air, holes out at deep mid-wicket. It was full and outside off, Kerr looked to clear the fence but got the top-edge to the fielder who had to run in a bit in front to complete a comfortable catch. Nada celebrates Shahid Afridi style. 99/218.3 Amy chips a drive straight to cover! That was a soft serve of a dismissal as the full ball outside off was played too early, it lobbed up and the fielder took a dolly. Amy exhales in frustration as she leaves. Nida's standard celebration makes two appearances in an over. 100/332.5 Bowled her! Flighted just outside off and Green came down the track, tried to go over cover. The ball spun back in prodigiously, she tried to adjust and go a bit straighter but was beaten. It hit the top of middle and Pakistan celebrate again 160/445.3 Slower one beats the flick and bowls her. The around the wicket angle and the good length helped the bowler beat the closing bat-face and it went between bat and pad 223/646.1 Ball watching by both batters leads to a run-out.. It was a fullish ball but was slow enough for the pull through mid-wicket to be controlled. They finished the first run, both started for the second. The non-striker was down too far and the throw came in to catch her short. Pakistan party as should be the response to free wickets 229/746.6 Well, the second run-out does come in. It was a fullish ball that was channeled to the offside. The calling and running were bad and the point fielder gave no chance at the striker's end, where the batter had given up 231/8Extras5 (b 1, lb 1, nb 2, w 1)TOTAL265/8 (50 Overs, RR: 5.3)Did not bat: RA MairFall of wickets: 1-31 (Sophie Devine, 5.3 ov), 2-99 (Amelia Kerr, 18.1 ov), 3-100 (Amy Satterthwaite, 18.3 ov), 4-160 (Maddy Green, 32.5 ov), 5-211 (Suzie Bates, 42.3 ov), 6-223 (Brooke Halliday, 45.3 ov), 7-229 (Jess Kerr, 46.1 ov), 8-231 (Hannah Rowe, 46.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.6 good leaping catch by Devine at mid-on. The enterprising knock of Muneeba comes to an end, she lofts the drive and does not keep it down, Devine needed to get the leap right and she does so, takes a smart overhead catch. New Zealand have their second in quick time 47/29.1 Mackay breaks the opening stand. Tossed up outside off, Sidra comes down the track to loft but isn't to the pitch, yet goes through with the shot, sliced straight up and gully comes around to take a dolly 39/134.5 Given not out for caught behind, New Zealand take the review. Has Bismah been strangled down leg? Yes she has been. Clear spike and Bismah has to go. The partnership is broken. Angled in from round the wicket, Bismah gets a thick edge on the glance and Martin knew immediately even though the umpire did not give it out. Devine went for the review and was proved right 155/419.1 great catch at slip. The umpires get together though to check for whether it is a clean one. They are convinced and Omaima has to go. Drifting across her, she pushes with hard hands and the edge goes low to Satterthwaite's right at slip, she dives and comes up with the ball one-handed inches from the turf. Sensational stuff 73/336.5 Hannah Rowe doing it for New Zealand. The second wicket of the over. Lovely slower off-cutter, dipping on a yorker length, Dar swipes too early and misses, the off-stump is knocked. Rowe is all smiles as she is congratulated by her mates. End of a gutsy knock from Dar though 158/636.1 Aliya edges the cut and is gone. Too close to cut as the ball is angled in, extra bounce and she feathers it to Martin. New Zealand well on top now 157/540.2 Rowe is finishing this off now. The inswinger, sharp as well, swings in, seams a long way too, and Sidra is comprehensively beaten on the back foot block. The ball clips the top of middle 173/839.1 Rowe into the act - this time on the field. Short on the stumps, Fatima pulls straight to mid-wicket, Rowe hangs on and completes the catch on the dive as the ball lodges near her waist and she uses the right elbow to control it 165/740.6 Five-for for Hannah Rowe. She can't control her smile. A soft dismissal this. Slower and fuller outside off, chipped straight to cover-point. Not sure what Diana was aiming there, gave catching practice in the end 174/9Extras11 (w 11)TOTAL194/9 (50 Overs, RR: 3.88)Fall of wickets: 1-39 (Sidra Amin, 9.1 ov), 2-47 (Muneeba Ali, 10.6 ov), 3-73 (Omaima Sohail, 19.1 ov), 4-155 (Bismah Maroof, 34.5 ov), 5-157 (Aliya Riaz, 36.1 ov), 6-158 (Nida Dar, 36.5 ov), 7-165 (Fatima Sana, 39.1 ov), 8-173 (Sidra Nawaz, 40.2 ov), 9-174 (Diana Baig, 40.6 ov)
