Match Ended   
133/8 (20.0/20)
130/6 (20.0/20)
India Women beat New Zealand Women by 3 runs
Right. That ends another thrilling game. India earn their third win and romp into the semis. Who will be the next team? New Zealand? Australia? Or someone else? It is a tough passage. The second game of the day is between Australia and Bangladesh which will begin at 7 pm local (0800 GMT). Do join us for that game.
Harmanpreet Kaur, the Indian skipper, says that it is a great feeling and they have learnt a lot from the last three games. On batting better in overs 7 to 15, Kaur says that they got a good start but they could not carry the momentum forward. Stresses that they kept on repeating the mistakes in all the games. On the bowling, the Indian skipper says that they bowled well but sometimes they struggled to hit the right lines and lengths. On Shafali Varma, Kaur hopes that she continues performing well as her runs at the start is really important for them.
Sophie Devine, the New Zealand skipper, says that she thought that the bowlers did a terrific job and to restrict India to 133 was an amazing effort. Adds that the pitch looked a bit pacy but they failed to adapt. Praises Hayley Jensen for her performance. States that they got pretty close today but failed at the last moment. Goes onto say that they would take the positives from this game.
Shafali Verma, the Player of the Match, says that she is very happy with her performance and she wants to keep doing that for the team. Adds that they were not giving any loose balls and she was just looking to take singles and doubles. Credits her father and the boys in her academy where she trained for her good performances.
The White Ferns would be disappointed, not because of the loss but the mannerism of the defeat. They bounced back superbly after a strong second-wicket stand by India but then, kept dropping catches. Adapting to slow, turning pitches has been a challenge for many teams and the opponents are increasingly finding it difficult to play the Indian spinners. Four spinners played in this game and their combined figures were 16-0-106-4. Shikha Pandey, the lone seamer, did well with figures of 4-0-21-1. Please stay tuned for the presentation...
Kudos to New Zealand for fighting hard and taking this close but they could have won if, had the fielding been better or had the batting against spinners got going. As has been the case throughout the tournament, India crossed 130 and then defended it. They bowled better and fielded exceedingly well.

Shikha Pandey To Amelia Kerr OUT!
OUT! Confusion in the end but INDIA WIN AND ARE THROUGH TO THE SEMIS! Pandey bowls this full and outside off, Amelia gets across, looks to swing but misses and is hit on the pads. The ball deflects to the off side and all they can manage is just a leg bye. Shikha quickly gets to the ball and fires a throw at the keeper's end. Hits and it is referred upstairs. Replays show that Jensen was looking for the second while Kerr was not interested at all. VICTORY BY 3 RUNS!

Deepti Sharma To Amelia Kerr
TWO RUN OUTS MISSED ON THE SAME BALL! Full and outside off, Kerr drives this straight back to the bowler. Jensen is backing up too far and is gone for all money. But Deepti, for all her time-taking and under-arming, misses the stumps at the bowler's end. They go for the single now and mid on quickly gets to the ball. Because Jensen tried to get back, she is a bit late in taking off. The throw comes in to the keeper's end but it hits Jensen who comes in the way.

Short and outside off, Martin comes down the track and swings it powerfully over mid-wicket. The connection sounds good but when the ball completes the trajectory, Jemimah Rodrigues is there to take the sitter! Martin goes for a fighting 25 from 28 balls.

It appears that it is a stumping but then we are informed that it is a catch. Snickometer confirms. The good-looking 43-run stand has been broken. New Zealand need 57 from 34 balls.

Shikha Pandey To Katey Martin
INSIDE EDGE, MISSES THE STUMPS! And an overthrow is conceded as well. Poor backup by Deepti Sharma. Full and outside off, Martin gets across, initially looking to paddle but then, seeing the line wide outside off, she looks to run it down to third man. All she manages is a thick inside edge which misses the stumps and goes to short fine leg. The fielder comes running in, has a shy at the striker's end but misses. Deepti Sharma lazily jogs to her right from short extra cover and makes no attempt to stop the ball. Allows it to go through to long off and the batters return for the second.

TOP EDGE, SAFE! Shikha Pandey loses it in the sun. Full and outside off, Green looks to play the slog sweep but gets a top edge. The ball lobs in the air towards square leg but Pandey running across from short mid-wicket loses it in the sun and backs off. Strange. She has the glasses on, but on the cap. Why not wear them over the eyes? A single taken.
Bob Carter, the New Zealand batting coach, is down for an interview with Nasser Hussain. Carter says that they will take it ball by ball and keep the scorecard ticking over. Says that they made a couple of great stops in the field but also dropped some catches which should have been taken, otherwise the ground fielding was excellent. On being asked whether it would be nice if they win without Devine contributing, the coach chuckles and then agrees.

Poonam Yadav To Sophie Devine OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Taken off a full toss! Once again, the Indian spinners are having their say. Floated outside off, Devine comes down the track and takes it on the full. That is a high full toss to boot. 9 times out of 10, that would have gone out of the park. But does not happen today. Devine mistimes this very badly and the ball lobs off the top edge. Simple catch for Radha Yadav at point. New Zealand losing their way - need 100 more from 71 balls.

NOT OUT. India lose a review. A length ball, down the leg side, Devine looks to flick but misses and is hit on the pads. Shikha appeals but the umpire does not raise his finger. The bowler wants a review but the keeper advises against it. The captain goes with the bowler but Ball Tracker shows it to be missing leg stump.
Review for LBW! Shikha wants the review, but keeper Bhatia says no. Skipper Kaur goes with the bowler.

OUT! CAUGHT! There goes the first wicket. Full and outside off, Priest looks to play the slog but gets a top edge. The ball goes high in the air and Radha Yadav takes it calmly. India needed this wicket as Priest was threatening to play quickly. 121 more needed from 110 balls.

Full and outside off, pushed straight to cover.
The players are back out in the middle. The Indians walk out in a good mood, so that shows that they are not too disappointed with the opportunity of not getting to 150. Sophie Devine and Rachel Priest will open the batting for New Zealand. Interesting choice from the Indians. Deepti Sharma has been given the ball.
