Jess Kerr To Richa Ghosh
Almost chipped it back to the bowler! Shaping in, on a length, on off, Richa Ghosh looks to work it across the line but the ball stops in the surface slightly. Gets a leading edge that goes past the outstretched left hand of Kerr and rolls in front of mid off.

Rosemary Mair To Richa Ghosh
Another loud appeal for LBW but this time, the umpire shakes her head in denial! Sophie Devine wants to have a check and goes for a review. Almost an identical line and length of the previous delivery, pitching outside off and nipping back in a long way, on a good length, Richa Ghosh is beaten for pace and is rooted inside the crease, getting cramped up for room. She tries to glance it off the pads towards the leg side but misses and plays over the line. The ball wears on the back pad. UltraEdge shows nothing while Ball Tracking saves Richa as it is going over the leg stump on the projection. New Zealand Women burn a review here, but they are right on the top at the moment.
Richa Ghosh is in next.

Rosemary Mair To Harmanpreet Kaur OUT!
OUT! INDIA WOMEN ARE 3 DOWN NOW! This has been a spectacular bowling performance by the Kiwis so far! A huge appeal for LBW and up goes the finger. Harmanpreet Kaur though challenges the on-field decision and goes for a review. This is bowled on a fuller length, shaping back in a touch as well, on the leg stump line, Harmanpreet Kaur walks a step across off and goes for a swipe across the line of the ball. It tails back into the batter and Kaur plays all over it, ends up wearing it on the front pad. On the UltraEdge now, it shows no bat involved and the Ball Tracking shows that the projection of the ball is clipping the leg stump on the umpire's call.

Rosemary Mair To Harmanpreet Kaur
WIDE! Overcompensates and hurls it way down leg with a huge inswing, Harmanpreet Kaur walks across to tickle it fine but misses. Wide called.

Rosemary Mair To Harmanpreet Kaur
Bowls it full does Mair, getting it into the right hander, Harmanpreet Kaur flicks it a bit uppishly towards deep backward square leg for a couple of runs.

Rosemary Mair To Harmanpreet Kaur
FOUR! Class written all over it! Rosemary Mair offers a lot of width, on a good length, Harmanpreet Kaur lets the ball arrive, goes on the back foot and opens her bat face at the last second and cuts it between point and backward point for a cracking boundary. She holds her pose for a bit and the Indian skipper is looking confident now.

Eden Carson To Smriti Mandhana OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! The run-rate pressure was creeping in and India Women have now lost both their openers inside the Powerplay! Eden Carson bowls from around the stumps, and lands a flighted one, fuller and around off, Smriti Mandhana tries to up the ante and gets on her dancing shoes to loft it over long off. She does go the pitch of the ball, but doesn't get the room and tries to overhit it and loses her shape a bit as well. As a result, she mistimes it in the air and the ball travels straight down the throat of Maddy Green stationed at long off.

Eden Carson To Smriti Mandhana
TWO WIDES! Around the stumps, curving back a long way down leg, Smriti Mandhana leaves and the keeper too, fails to collect it cleanly and allows the ball to parry away to the left of short fine. The fielder moves to her left, stops the ball and throws back to the keeper. The stumps are dislodged but Harmanpreet Kaur is home by then.

Rosemary Mair To Smriti Mandhana
A bit of nerves out there in the middle. A slight miscommunication between the wickets. Pitched too full, and around off, Smriti walks a few of steps down to the pitch and drives it to the right of mid off. Harmanpreet Kaur wants a quick single but is sent back by her partner. A direct hit at the bowler's end would have been interesting.

Eden Carson To Shafali Verma OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! A massive, massive wicket for the Kiwis and they are all pumped up and why not! Eden Carson strikes gold on the very first ball. She attacks the stumps on a fuller length, it gets a bit of a variable bounce off the deck as well. Shafali Verma looks to work it across towards the leg side and closes her bat face too early in the process. Hence, a healthy leading edge is found and it is chipped straight back to the bowler. Eden Carson makes no mistake with a regulation catch. Shafali Verma departs in and is very disappointed with herself.
Eden Carson to operate from the other end.

Jess Kerr To Smriti Mandhana
FOUR! India Women begin the chase with a boundary! Jess Kerr bowls it a bit short in length, and angling on middle and leg, Smriti Mandhana stands in the crease and pulls it well through square leg for a boundary. A valiant effort there by Georgia Plimmer as she runs from deep mid-wicket and dives to her left to intercept the ball, but all in vain.
