England Women vs India Women, 5th T20I - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Em Arlott to Arundhati Reddy, FOUR, useful runs these. Length on middle and leg, Arundhati Reddy shuffles across and laps it well wide of short fine and it runs away

Em Arlott to Arundhati Reddy, FOUR, nice. Arundhati Reddy comes down the track and picks the back of the hand slower-ball, lofts and clears mid-off

Ecclestone to Richa Ghosh, out Caught by Bouchier!! Straight to long-on and a simple catch this time to Bouchier. It's a half-volley on the stumps, Richa Ghosh lofts but doesn't get the elevation and she holes out. Richa Ghosh c Bouchier b Ecclestone 24(16) [4s-3]

Ecclestone to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, the falling sweep. Ecclestone smiles wryly. It's on a length on off, Richa Ghosh falls to the floor but only after hitting that to the deep backward square-leg fence, split the two fielders inside the ring

Ecclestone to Radha Yadav, 1 run, low full-toss on the stumps, Radha Yadav gets forward to drive and beats a diving extra-cover to her right

Wong to Radha Yadav, FOUR, cleverly done. Radha Yadav knew short fine was inside, she shuffles across and takes the low full-toss from the stumps, laps it fine

Smith to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, no deep square-leg or deep backward square-leg and it's four. It's angling into middle, Richa Ghosh goes low and sweeps over backward square-leg

Charlie Dean to Deepti Sharma, out Lbw!! Another review lost by India. Quicker and with the angle to leg-stump, Deepti Sharma flicks and misses, the length delivery hits the back leg and it's in line with leg-stump and hitting leg-stump. Deepti Sharma takes the review but it's three reds. Third for Charlie Dean. Deepti Sharma lbw b Charlie Dean 7(8)

Wong to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, slower-ball on a length on the stumps, Richa Ghosh gets forward and lofts, just clears mid-off who was running back, runs away

Charlie Dean to Shafali Verma, out Caught by Bouchier!! Brilliant from Bouchier at long-on. No wonder England are thrilled. Her team-mates run towards her to congratulate. It's full on the stumps, Shafali Verma sinks low and lofts flat, Bouchier sprints to her right and as the ball seems to be going away, she stretches her arms to her right and catches it two-handed even as she is diving. As she tumbled over, she gets up with the ball intact. Terrific running catch. Judged it so well. End of a fine knock from Shafali. Shafali Verma c Bouchier b Charlie Dean 75(41) [4s-13 6s-1]

Ecclestone to Harleen Deol, out Lbw!! Looked so out and that's why umpire Jacqueline Williams had the finger up in a flash. A full delivery on off and middle, Harleen Deol sinks low to slogsweep and misses, that's dead once there was no bat and it's hitting low down on the back leg. Crashing into middle-stump. Harleen wastes a review too. Harleen Deol lbw b Ecclestone 4(8)

Em Arlott to Shafali Verma, FOUR, flat-batted for four. On a length outside off, sits up short, Shafali Verma gets forward and flat-bats it powerfully, long-on had a little distance to cover to his left, but she can't get there

Smith to Shafali Verma, FOUR, lovely shot. It's tossed up full on the stumps, Shafali Verma comes down the track and gets to the pitch of the ball, lofts inside-out and beats long-off to her left

Charlie Dean to Kaur, out Bowled!! Kaur looks to be cheeky but is clean bowled. Was a flighted one, little shortish, Kaur backed away to dab it but missed the line of the delivery for the ball to rattle into the top of off. Third one down. Kaur would be very gutted. Things were going well for India but they have lost a wicket against the run of play. Kaur b Charlie Dean 15(18) [4s-2]

Charlie Dean to Shafali Verma, FOUR, pounces on the short ball and pulls it hard past deep mid. That was short, not much spin but dragged down and Shafali Verma was quick to put it away

Charlie Dean to Shafali Verma, FOUR, straight down the ground for a boundary again. Charlie Dean went round the wicket and bowled it fuller. Shafali Verma sat down, got to the pitch of the ball and thumped it down the ground for a four. Was such a neat shot

Wong to Shafali Verma, FOUR, backs away, slower delivery, dragged down again and Shafali Verma wallops it past the dive of the bowler for a four. That was hit hard and Shafali Verma has moved to 43 off 18 balls

Wong to Shafali Verma, FOUR, slower delivery, dragged the length delivery, on the pads, Shafali Verma held herself back and pulled it wide of the fielders at long leg and deep square. Managed to find the gap so well

Wong to Shafali Verma, SIX, straight down the ground for a sixer. Clean as a whistle from Verma. Fuller ball, in the slot, Shafali Verma backed and hit it sweetly over the bowler. She is showing her class

Wong to Shafali Verma, FOUR, banged in short, angled in, Shafali Verma pulls the ball wide of the fielder at long leg and deep square for a four. That was banged in and Shafali Verma took it on. She is batting so well

Smith to Kaur, FOUR, and goes through this time. That was thumped hard and the fielder at cover point let it through her legs for a four. The room was there and Kaur put it away with elan

Smith to Kaur, FOUR, pristine timing, class placement and the ball has run away from the cover point fielder for a four. Backed away, got the bat down and placed it so well between a few fielders

Em Arlott to Shafali Verma, FOUR, banged in short, angled down, Shafali Verma stayed leg-side of the ball but the ball went off the top-edge. The fielder was inside the circle and it went over her

Ecclestone to Shafali Verma, FOUR, goes down the track, goes inside out and goes over cover for a four. That was well timed and placed

Ecclestone to Shafali Verma, FOUR, backs away and heaves it over cover. Lovely shot by Shafali Verma as she thumped it inside out

Smith to Rodrigues, out Bowled!! And gone. That was flatter, the batter went back to punch it and missed the line of the delivery to be bowled. The ball kept a little low and skidded on to rattle into the sticks. Second one down and an excellent start for the hosts. The spinner comes into the attack and strikes immediately. Rodrigues is gone for only 1. She would be disapppinted with this. Rodrigues b Smith 1(5)

Wong to Shafali Verma, FOUR, slapped wide of the fielder at cover. That was short, outside off, Shafali Verma backed away and thumped it past the infield

Wong to Shafali Verma, FOUR, dances down, gets behind the line of the delivery and punches it over mid-on. That was timed to perfection by thye batetr as she never lost her shape after dancing down

Em Arlott to Mandhana, out Caught by Smith!! The short ball has done the job. That climbed on the batter who failed to keep it down. Was an easy catch for the fielder at point. The batter just chipped it in the end by backing away. That was banged in and Mandhana wanted to carry on with her attacking ways but has failed here. Mandhana c Smith b Em Arlott 8(6) [4s-2]

Em Arlott to Mandhana, FOUR, short of length delivery, on the hips, Mandhana pivots on the back foot and pulls the ball wide of the fielder at deep backward square

Em Arlott to Mandhana, FOUR, on a length, at the sticks. Mandhana gets a stride out and smacks it over mid-on for a four. Nonchalant from the southpaw
