- BATSMENRB4s6sSR7.1 Bates has pulled off a stunner at midwicket. Short and angling across Muneeba well outside off at 101.7kph. She steps across and nails the pull to the left of Bates, who dives to and completes an excellent catch. That ball was travelling! Bates almost plucked that catch behind it, allowed the ball to nestle into her palm 30/26.4 Tahuhu strikes with her fourth ball.Full and straight with a hint of nibble back into Omaima, who plays around it. She gets struck on the pad and pretty sure that would have gone on to smash into leg stump. Omaima doesn't bother to review. 30/112.2 another sharp catch and Tahuhu strikes again! She dug it in short and Amin slammed it square but Eden Carson plucked it out of the air at point with a dive timed to perfection 52/318.3 Carson takes three balls to strike and Natalia perishes in search of quick runs. 76/4Extras10 (lb 1, w 9)TOTAL76/4 (18.3 Overs, RR: 4.1)Fall of wickets: 1-30 (Omaima Sohail, 6.4 ov), 2-30 (Muneeba Ali, 7.1 ov), 3-52 (Sidra Amin, 12.2 ov), 4-76 (Natalia Pervaiz, 18.3 ov)
