India Women vs Australia Women, 2nd T20I, Highlights: India Women Beat Australia Women In Super Over, Level Series 1-1

We are back for the chase! The players are walking out to the middle now. Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma are the two openers for India Women. Australia Women going with spin straightaway as Ashleigh Gardner is set to start proceedings with the ball. Here we go...

... THE CHASE ...

Right then, Australia Women have posted a huge total on the board and will be confident enough to defend this. India Women, on the other hand have the quality in their batting line-up, but they need to perform at their best to gun this down. It is going to be an exciting chase. Stay tuned for the second essay.

It was the same story for India Women as they struggled to get past the top three batters of Australia Women. They looked out of ideas in the middle and could not execute their plans. They were also a bit sloppy in the field as Richa Ghosh and Deepti Sharma dropped both Mooney and McGrath respectively which could have made a difference to the total. The only wicket that fell was taken by Deepti Sharma. Renuka Singh pulled things back a bit by bowling a good last over. India Women know that it is not going to be an easy chase, but they have to come out with a positive mindset and try to take the game deep to have any chance of levelling the series.

Australia Women have put on another scintillating batting display here. They were just unstoppable and looked to take the attack to their opponents right from the start. It all started with Alyssa Healy giving them a perfect start by playing some lusty blows. Once she fell, it was Beth Mooney and Tahlia McGrath who continued their good form and played shots all around the park. They were one step ahead from the India Women bowlers and punished them at will. Both batters remained unbeaten and scored brilliant fifties, and added 158 runs together to the total. Now, it is up to their bowlers to back up the good job done by their batters and defend this total to take a 2-0 lead in the series.

Take a bow Beth Mooney and Tahlia McGrath! It was the same duo which proved to be the difference in the 1st T20I, and they have managed to repeat their masterclass. These two now have broken the record for the highest second-wicket partnership for Australia Women.

Renuka Singh bowls this wide outside off on a fuller length, Tahlia McGrath charges down the wicket and slices the ball to short third man for a single. Good over from Renuka Singh but Australia Women have a massive total on the board!

Really full once again and outside off, Tahlia McGrath attempts a reverse sweep but misses as the ball goes through to the keeper.

FIVE WIDES! Really unfortunate for Renuka Singh! She watches Tahlia McGrath go across to the off side and bowls this really full and well outside the off stump. Tahlia McGrath leaves the ball at the last moment and the keeper is nowhere close to the ball. It runs away behind the wicket for four extra runs. Wide called by the umpire and the India Women players are not happy with the decision!

Another yorker length delivery bowled outside off, Beth Mooney looks to paddle this but mistimes the ball towards short third man for a run.

Fires in another yorker outside the off pole, Tahlia McGrath goes across to the offside and digs this towards deep square leg for a run.

Renuka Singh to bowl the last over. She has conceded 30 runs in her three overs. Can she keep Australia Women under 190?

FOUR! Make that three! It is raining boundaries! This is full as well and outside off, Beth Mooney stays in the crease and heaves this towards deep mid-wicket to collect four more runs.
