7.28pm: Australia have 134 on board after a slow start. Mooney top-scored with a 42-44 and McGrath struggled her way to a 33-ball 27 as South Africa kept Australia quiet in the middle overs. But Perry and Litchfield upped the ante to lift Healy-less Australia. SA leaked 40 runs in the last four and they wouldn't be happy with that. Will this score be enough for Australia to defend? We will find out. Join Sudarshanan after a short break for the start of the chase.
