- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.5 got her! Bhatia uses her feet to get across to the off side and down the pitch, Khatun pushes her line wider, beats the outside edge, and Joty does the rest, whipping the bails off! Clever bowling from the offie 16/15.3 length outside off, bit of nibble away, Verma hoiks this high, high, high into the night sky... the fielder at mid-off, Sultana, is underneath it, juggles it once, juggles it a second time, and eventually gobbles up the chance! 53/213.2 wide on the crease, low full toss, driven to backward point on the bounce, the throw comes in and this looks pretty tight! Bangladesh think they have a vital wicket... and they do! Rodrigues is a few inches short, diving in vain at full stretch... big moment! 92/49.6 leg cutter, short and wide outside the off stump, but Harmanpreet can only slash it to backward point who takes a good catch! Rumana makes amends for her misfield, holding onto a relatively sharp chance, and Harmanpreet falls cheaply... an opening for Bangladesh? 78/316.5 swept hard from outside off stump, indecision about whether or not to come back for the second - Deepti slips, Veda keeps running, and they both end up at the non-striker's end as Sultana whips the bails off! Calamitous running, and we have one of the game's great joys here: a slow-motion replay as to which batter made their ground first at the non-striker's end! Deepti was prone on the floor, diving at full stretch, while Veda tried to run her bat in... It's seriously tight, and it looks like Deepti will have to go! 113/616.2 tossed up, outside off stump, slugs down the ground on one knee, but it's straight down long-on's throat! Good grab from Nahida, right on the rope, and Richa Ghosh has to trudge off! 111/5Extras7 (lb 1, w 6)TOTAL142/6 (20 Overs, RR: 7.1)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Taniya Bhatia, 1.5 ov), 2-53 (Shafali Verma, 5.3 ov), 3-78 (Harmanpreet Kaur, 9.6 ov), 4-92 (Jemimah Rodrigues, 13.2 ov), 5-111 (Richa Ghosh, 16.2 ov), 6-113 (Deepti Sharma, 16.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.6 length ball, well outside off, she goes at it but a miscue and it sails straight to the cover fielder! An early breakthrough for India 5/17.6 slower ball, outside off and angling away, she reaches for it and connects with the toe of the bat, lofting the ball to Richa Ghosh at mid-off! 44/210.3 ooh, she is tempted to have a swing, India appeal for caught behind after the on-field umpire gave it not out. It was full, outside off, she swiped across the line and appears to have got a bottom edge on it! Yes, confirmed by the third umpire 61/316.4 outside off, she lunges, sweeps and picks out Arundhati Reddy at short square leg! It went straight to her, safe hands and Bangladesh lose another one. India well in control here. Can one of the Bangladesh batsmen do the needful here? 106/611.3 outside off, she reaches forward and makes contact high on the bat to be caught behind! She departs for a duck and Bangladesh are in trouble here 66/415.1 oh wow, Poonam Yadav with a wicket ... she lunges forward, sweeps at full stretch and it's collected at short square leg by Shafali Verma! 94/517.3 pitching well outside off, she is tempted big-time, advancing down the pitch and swinging wildly, the ball travels under the bat and through to Taniya Bhatia, who effects an easy stumping! 108/719.1 wow! What a gem! Perfect yorker nails off stump as Rumana Ahmed swings heartily and misses 121/8Extras2 (lb 2)TOTAL124/8 (20 Overs, RR: 6.2)Did not bat: Panna GhoshFall of wickets: 1-5 (Shamima Sultana, 1.6 ov), 2-44 (Murshida Khatun, 7.6 ov), 3-61 (Sanjida Islam, 10.3 ov), 4-66 (Fargana Hoque, 11.3 ov), 5-94 (Fahima Khatun, 15.1 ov), 6-106 (Nigar Sultana, 16.4 ov), 7-108 (Jahanara Alam, 17.3 ov), 8-121 (Rumana Ahmed, 19.1 ov)
