The ball goes off the inside half of her bat towards mid-wicket. Nicola Carey is stationed over there. She moves to her left and grabs the catch diving forward. 5/1

2.5 OUT! TAKEN! Both the openers are sent packing. Good-length ball, outside off. Verma makes room for herself and swings her bat across the line but completely miscues. The ball goes off the top edge towards mid on. Hannah Darlington is present over there and takes the catch without any trouble. Australia Women right on top and Tayla Vlaeminck bags her second wicket. 12/2

5.3 OUT! CAUGHT! This is what dot balls do to you! The pressure was building and Jemimah Rodrigues decides to step out and play the slog sweep. Flighted ball, on middle. Jemimah Rodrigues doesn't quite get to the pitch of the ball and looks to force the big shot. She ends up completely miscuing it towards mid on. Hannah Darlington takes a simple catch and India Women are in a spot of bother. 24/3

8.5 OUT! STUMPED! So just as the momentum seemed to be shifting, Australia strike and it is the big wicket of the Indian skipper! Beautifully bowled! Done in the flight and dip. This is tossed up nicely and around off, Kaur comes down the track, the ball dips right at the end. She swings, it sneaks under the bat and Healy does the rest. India in huge trouble now. 50/4

9.4 OUT! It is all falling apart here for India and pretty quickly! A run out is the last thing they would have wanted! On middle, this is worked through mid-wicket. They take one, Yastika Bhatia wants a second and takes off, she is halfway down the wicket but then is sent back. The fielder picks the ball up and fires it to the keeper who whips the bails off in a flash. 52/5

12 OUT! TIMBER! You miss, I hit stuff! Ghosh had to go for it, she comes down the track and swings, Carey shortens the length, it stays low, goes beneath the bat and hits the tumps. 100 now looks difficult. 61/6

15.2 OUT! RUN OUT! Loopy ball, on middle. Sharma gets low on one knee and sweeps it to deep square leg. Perry there runs to her right and dives to stop the ball. The fielder from deep mid-wicket collects the ball and throws it to the striker's end. Meanwhile, there is a huge mix-up in the middle as both the batters end up at the non-striker's end. Alyssa Healy collects the ball and whips the bails off. The umpires take it upstairs to check who reached the non-striker's end first. Replay shows that Pooja Vastrakar grounded her bat first. So, Deepti Sharma will have to walk back to the pavilion. 76/7

16 OUT! TIMBER! Wickets are falling like a pack of cards for India Women. Loopy ball, on middle, turning back in sharply. Shikha Pandey goes back in the crease and looks to punch but misses. The ball goes through the gate and rattles the furniture behind her. India Women are eight down now. 78/8

17 OUT! Cleaned up! Sophie Molineux gets second wicket of the night. This is fired in full and on middle and leg. Renuka Singh clears her front leg and looks to heave it on the leg side. The ball sneaks under her bat and crashes into the stumps. Just one wicket remaining now for India Women. 81/9

0.2 OUT! BOWLED! Shikha Pandey, you beauty! This is bowled on a good length, in the sixth stump channel. The ball comes back in sharply. Alyssa Healy gets cramped for room. The ball goes through her defense and disturbs the furniture behind her. There's pretty much nothing she can do, such was the beauty of that delivery. Shikha Pandey draws first blood and India Women are pumped up. 4/1

13.1 OUT! STUMPED! Gayakwad strikes! It is the crucial wicket of Beth Mooney this time. She was well set and could have taken Australia home. Rajeshwari Gayakwad bowls a flatter ball, outside off. The ball stays low a bit. Beth Mooney charges down the track and looks to swipe it across. The ball goes under her willow and Richa Ghosh does the rest behind the stumps. Half the side back in the hut now for Australia Women! 71/5

6.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! The skipper departs. Nicely flighted ball, around off and this one grips a bit. Meg Lanning dances down the pitch looking to whack it but she's completely undone by the flight and ends up knicking it. Richa Ghosh takes the catch and also whips off the bails. Even if Lanning didn't knick it, she would have been stumped. Is this a turning point in the match? 35/2

7.5 OUT! CAUGHT! The dangerous Ashleigh Gardner departs early. A half-tracker, way outside off and its there to be hit. Ashleigh Gardner goes a bit too hard at it and completely mistimes it. The ball goes to the left of the point fielder and Rajeshwari Gayakwad takes a sharp catch. Harmanpreet Kaur gets the breakthrough and Australia Women lose their third. This game is still alive and 81 runs are needed off 73 balls. 38/3

9.1 OUT! TAKEN! Perry now has to walk back and India well and truly in this one. The move to get on Sharma works wonders. That is a good catch. Perry comes down the track but gets a little too close to the pitch of the ball. She looks to loft it over covers but does not get the desired elevation. Kaur at covers, times her jump and takes a good catch. 46/4

16.4 OUT! STUMPED! Another one bites the dust and Australia Women lose their sixth. Rajeshwari Gayakwad sees Nicola Carey dancing down the track and fires in a full and wide one. Carey can't get to it and ends up yorking herself. The keeper, Richa Ghosh fails to collect but the ball goes off her pads and back onto the stumps. Carey is stumped and Rajeshwari Gayakwad gets the breakthrough. 94/6
