Adam Collins on twitter: That's a superb effort from Australia. 143 may as well be 163 or 173 on this pitch. They realised early what was going on, adapted then innovated."
Rick Eyre tweets: "England versus India on this pitch will be one heckuva tactical contest. Likely to neutralise Harmanpreet a bit."
5.21pm Australia should be mighty happy with 142 on a super-slow surface where manufacturing shots has been far from easy. As well as Lanning and Healy played, they've been propped up to the eventual score thanks to Haynes' cameo. After doing most things right in the field in the first half, Stafanie Taylor missed a trick by employing little more pace than the surface may have warranted, and this played into Australia's hands. Deandra Dottin had an off day, conceding 27 off her two overs. Can she redeem herself with the bat? Join us shortly for the chase.
Alyssa Healy: "It's a good score, if we bowl well, we should defend this. Wasn't an easy wicket to bat, had to grind our way. Participation wasn't in doubt, I was 100 percent today, credit to the support staff. West Indies will come out hard, they've got batters who can hit it well, but this is a slightly different surface."
