India Women vs Australia Women, 1st ODI - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Kim Garth to Deepti Sharma, FOUR, India cross 280. Deepti Sharma ends the innings well. On a length, it's the slower-ball off-cutter again, Deepti comes down the track to slug it straight down the ground and she beats long-on easily

Kim Garth to Radha Yadav, out Caught by Perry!! Straight to long-on. A leg-cutter and full on middle, Radha Yadav gets forward to loft and she picks out Perry. She needed a bit more elevation for that to go all the way. Good little cameo from Radha. Radha Yadav c Perry b Kim Garth 19(14) [4s-3]

Kim Garth to Radha Yadav, FOUR, similar boundary to the last over. On a length outside off, Radha Yadav steps out to heave, off the thick inside half and she beats Gardner's run and dive to her left from deep mid-wicket

McGrath to Radha Yadav, FOUR, off the thick inside half as Radha Yadav comes down the track to swing to leg, the length delivery and she puts it into the gap between deep mid-wicket and long-on

Kim Garth to Radha Yadav, FOUR, beats both the diving cover and extra-cover. On a length outside off, Radha Yadav gets forward and punches firmly, threaded the needle there, cover's dive to her right and extra-cover's dive to her left were both beaten

Kim Garth to Deepti Sharma, FOUR, into the gap and four. A slower-ball off-cutter on off, Deepti Sharma pulls and it's wide of deep backward square-leg to her right

McGrath to Radha Yadav, 1 run, on a length on off, Radha Yadav goes on the back foot and whips it to deep square-leg

Schutt to Richa Ghosh, out Caught by Gardner!! Richa Ghosh has holed out to deep mid-wicket off a juicy low full-toss. She will be disappointed with that. She gets low and heaves, it's high and Gardner near the cushions at deep mid-wicket judges it well and takes it. Such a safe catch and that's a big wicket at this stage as Richa could have wreaked havoc at the death. Australia pulling things back nicely. Richa Ghosh c Gardner b Schutt 25(20) [4s-2 6s-1]

Schutt to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, full on off, Richa Ghosh gets forward and lofts, the off-side field is up and it's over extra-cover, runs away

McGrath to Rodrigues, out Caught by Alana King!! A wry smile from McGrath as she gets Rodrigues. She is relieved. It's a slower-ball off-cutter down leg, short and following Rodrigues there, she pulls and it's a simple top-edge that goes to short fine. Richa Ghosh pats Rodrigues on the head as the latter walks off. An expensive over ends with a wicket. Rodrigues c Alana King b McGrath 18(26) [4s-1]

McGrath to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, another free-hit and this goes for four. Full around off, Richa Ghosh gets forward and lofts, clears both cover and mid-off, McGrath proving to be expensive here

McGrath to Richa Ghosh, no ball, SIX, the free-hit goes for six. And it's another front foot no-ball. Sloppy stuff this. A back of the hand slower-ball but too full outside off, Richa Ghosh gets forward and lofts nice and clean over long-off. Mid-off was inside

Schutt to Harleen Deol, out Stumped!! End of Harleen Deol. She was looking to up the rate and she falls in the process. Length just outside off, keeps a bit low, Deol comes down the track to swing to leg, misses, superb take by Healy standing up and she does the rest. Good innings from Deol but Schutt breaks the stand. Harleen Deol st Healy b Schutt 54(57) [4s-4 6s-2]

Schutt to Rodrigues, FOUR, good late-cut. It's on a length outside off, Rodrigues goes on the back foot and cuts late, beats short third man to her left, Schutt smiles wryly

Gardner to Harleen Deol, 1 run, 50 for Harleen Deol and she gets it in a streaky way. Gets forward to push this length ball outside off, just chips it over the leap and the outstretched right hand of Gardner, the bowler was a bit slow to react there

Alana King to Harleen Deol, FOUR, now the aerial sweep. This is right into the gap at deep square-leg. It's full on middle, Harleen Deol gets low and doesn't keep ther sweep down, wide of the square-leg umpire

Alana King to Harleen Deol, SIX, that's a good hit. Harleen Deol comes down the track and takes on the tossed up delivery, slices the loft, but she just clears long-off on the fence

Gardner to Harleen Deol, FOUR, this is too full outside off and it's consecutive fours for Harleen Deol. She gets forward and drives wide of extra-cover, no sweeper cover

Gardner to Harleen Deol, FOUR, Harleen Deol comes down the track and even though she is not to the pitch of the ball, she lofts and mid-off is inside, runs away

Sutherland to Kaur, out Lbw!! Three reds and Kaur wastes a review. The slower-ball off-cutter on a good length and it cuts back in slightly, Kaur gets forward to defend and misses, hit on the back leg in front of middle and the ball would have hit leg-stump flush. Kaur had a chat with Harleen Deol and went for the review. But that looked plumb and rightly umpire Lauren Agenbag had the finger up quickly. Two wickets in a short span of time for Australia. Kaur lbw b Sutherland 11(9) [6s-1]

Sutherland to Kaur, SIX, Kaur breaks the shackles with a six. On a good length on middle and leg, Kaur pulls and the top-edge helps, gets it over the deep backward square-leg fence, the top-edge helped

Sutherland to Harleen Deol, FOUR, first boundary in 41 balls. Much-needed for India. It's full on middle, Harleen Deol gets forward and flicks in the air but wide of mid-wicket and it's into the gap

Alana King to Pratika Rawal, out Caught by Perry!! The slogsweep and Pratika Rawal finds deep mid-wicket. Perry won't mis those. She moves to her left and takes it. It's nicely tossed up full on middle, Rawal gets low to slogsweep and hits it well but doesn't have the elevation to clear Perry who runs around to her left and takes it. King roars in delight. Pratika Rawal c Perry b Alana King 64(96) [4s-6]

Kim Garth to Pratika Rawal, 2 runs, did that carry? Fullish delivery around off, Pratika whips it towards deep square leg and Gardner charges in, dives forward but the ball lands just in front, she gets a hand and keeps it to a brace

Wareham to Harleen Deol, SIX, much needed hit for India. Runs are coming at a trickle and they need a move on. Harleen shimmies down, gets to the pitch of the ball and lofts it to long-on. The ball lands flush on the ad cushions

Sutherland to Mandhana, out Mandhana Run Out!! Gone! Brilliant work by Litchfield. Smriti not happy with Pratika. The partnership is broken and Australia are delighted. Fullish delivery outside off, Smriti drives towards extra cover and sets off, but Pratika was hesistant - takes a start and then aborts from the single, Smriti is stranded halfway down and she tries to get back in, Litchfield does not only make a diving stop but also scores a direct-hit at the striker's end. Smriti was not even in the frame. That would have been a tight single even if Pratika had responded. Mandhana run out (Phoebe Litchfield) 58(63) [4s-6 6s-2]

Sutherland to Mandhana, SIX, there's the release. But that was a gift from Sutherland, juicy full toss and Smriti gets hold of it, crouches low and swings it over the wide long-on fence

Sutherland to Pratika Rawal, 1 run, fifty for Pratika. She continues the impressive start to her ODI career. Raises her bat and acknowledges the applause of her coach and the crowd. On a length and outside off, Pratika opens the bat face and eases it to sweeper cover
