McGrath to Mandhana, out Caught by Gardner!! Smriti picks out the fielder in the deep. India would have loved her presence till the end of 40th over at least, but it has been a superb knock nonetheless. Sees the full ball in the slot outside off, Smriti clears her front leg and heaves it off the thick inside half. Gardner at deep mid-wicket moves to her right and completes the catch with a reverse cup. Mandhana c Gardner b McGrath 117(91) [4s-14 6s-4]

McGrath to Mandhana, FOUR, lots of width outside off, Smriti goes deep inside the crease and slices it well past the diving fielder at backward point to her left

Gardner to Mandhana, FOUR, short and spinning away outside off, Smriti opens the bat face and creams the punch in the gap between backward point and cover

McGrath to Mandhana, FOUR, poor start from Tahlia McGrath. Nothing poor from Smriti though. She brings up the second fastest ODI hundred for India. A full and wide hit-me delivery with mid-off up inside the ring, Smriti thumps that straight and raises her arms in celebration. Plenty of applause from the crowd as well....

Gardner to Mandhana, FOUR, full on leg stump, Smriti goes down on one knee and hammers the sweep over the fielder at square leg to her left

Sutherland to Deepti Sharma, 1 run, there's a mix-up, but all ends well for India. A direct hit at the bowling end would have been the end of Deepti Sharma. She stabbed it to the left of backward point and there was yes-no, yes-no between the duo for a couple of times. Smriti ran through eventually and throw came in wide at the bowling end...

Sutherland to Deepti Sharma, FOUR, throws her hands on the drive and gets the thick outside edge that runs away to the third man fence. The length was on the fuller side and Deepti tried to play that through extra cover...

Gardner to Kaur, out Caught by Sutherland!! The loop and slowness of the delivery is working wonders for Ashleigh Gardner. She puts this ball well wide of off, teasing Harmanpreet to go for a big shot. The Indian skipper crouches and goes hard at that, ends up slicing it to the right of the fielder at backward point. Kaur c Sutherland b Gardner 17(26) [4s-2]

Sutherland to Mandhana, FOUR, one bounce and over the ropes! Smriti gets width outside off and she's dispatched that over mid-off with a well-timed loft

Schutt to Mandhana, FOUR, using the width on offer is Smriti Mandhana. Schutt bowls it short and gives too much width outside off, Mandhana plays the late cut and puts it in the gap between backward point and short third

Darcie Brown to Kaur, FOUR, that was asking to be hit and the Indian skipper obliges. Harmanpreet opens the bat face against the wide delivery and hits the gap with a drive past cover to her left

Schutt to Kaur, FOUR, timed! Stands tall and crunches the length delivery in the gap between cover and extra cover

Sutherland to Harleen Deol, out Harleen Deol Run Out!! Mix-up and Harleen goes! She drove it to the left of mid-on and ran with the shot. Smriti was ball-watching and hesitated as King flung herself to stop the ball. Harleen nearly gave a handshake to Smriti there and by the time she started running back, it was too late. King with a poor throw (well wide of the keeper and the ball bounced multiple times too). Harleen kept running and refused to put in a dive, which might have given her a smidgen of a survival chance. Not to be. It was Harleen's call and she was the one running to the danger end, so Smriti could have responded instead of ball-watching. Harleen Deol run out (Alana King/Healy) 10(24) [4s-1]

Sutherland to Harleen Deol, FOUR, full ball width written all over it, Harleen breaks the shackles with a well-timed drive in the gap through covers

Wareham to Mandhana, SIX, Smriti is taking full toll of the legspinner. Harmanpreet spoke about the batters targetting the right bowlers at the toss and she will be happy with what she's seeing out there in the middle. Smriti was expecting the full ball and she got down on one knee in a flash to bash the slogsweep over the leaping fielder at deep mid-wicket

Wareham to Mandhana, FOUR, dropped. Rank bad ball from Georgia Wareham, Smriti went for the slog and hit it to the right of deep square. Brown got there with a dive, got both hands but couldn't cling on. And to make matters worse, the ball runs away to the boundary fence...

Wareham to Mandhana, FOUR, loopy delivery wide of off stump, Smriti smacks the drive up and over extra cover with an air of nonchalance

Wareham to Mandhana, FOUR, a juicy full toss and Smriti puts it away with ease! Brings out her swinging sword and swats it away to the right of deep mid-wicket

Wareham to Mandhana, SIX, uses her feet, gets close to the pitch of the delivery and mows it for a maximum over cow corner. That was a shot of complete authority from Smriti Mandhana to get to her fifty

Sutherland to Mandhana, FOUR, Smriti premeditates the scoop and gets the desired connection as well. Shuffles across, watches the ball all along and helps the short of length delivery over the fielder at short fine

Sutherland to Harleen Deol, no run, full and drifting into leg stump, Harleen shuffled a tad and missed the flick. That was a seam-up delivery and hit Harleen in line with leg stump. The review was a confident one and Harleen survives....

Gardner to Pratika Rawal, out Caught by Wareham!! Gardner provides the much-needed breakthrough. Slower and fuller outside off, Pratika was done in by the flight as she mistimed the drive straight to the fielder at cover. She felt it was there for the drive and went a bit too hard on it. Catching practice for Wareham. Pratika Rawal c Wareham b Gardner 25(32) [4s-4]

Perry to Mandhana, FOUR, nearly went for a maximum that one! Once again Smriti picks the full ball off her pads and whips it high and over mid-wicket. Dropped inches short of the boundary ropes...

Perry to Mandhana, FOUR, full ball and Smriti does well to amble down the pitch and flick it over the leaping fielder at mid-wicket to her left

Darcie Brown to Mandhana, wide, angling away outside off from a length, past the tramline as Smriti shoulders arms

Darcie Brown to Mandhana, FOUR, Smriti welcomes Darcie Brown with a boundary. Poor ball that. Sat up nicely wide of off and Smriti was all hands on the drive to the right of cover

Schutt to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, third boundary of the over! Full and sliding down the leg-side, Pratika plays the whippy flick and beats the diving fielder at backward square leg to her left

Schutt to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, once again it is the width. Pratika opens the bat face and steers the ball past the diving left hand of backward point

Schutt to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, short and wide of off, Pratika uses the width on offer to slap it down the ground. Well wide of mid-off to her right to claim her second boundary

Gardner to Mandhana, SIX, crunched! Juicy full delivery outside off, Smriti uses her feet and smokes it over long-on with a clean swing of the bat

Schutt to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, short on the stumps, Pratika swivels and generates great power through her wrists to pull the ball square on the leg-side, beating the fielder in the deep to her left

Schutt to Mandhana, FOUR, Schutt with a wry smile on her way back towards the bowling mark. It was full and wide of off stump, Smriti drives and gets a thick outside edge that flies away in the gap between short third and backward point

Schutt to Mandhana, leg byes, FOUR, back of a length down the leg-side, Mandhana misses the flick but the ball catches the thigh pad and runs away to the fine leg fence

Gardner to Mandhana, SIX, jumps down the ground, meets the ball on the full and deposits it high and way over long-on for a mighty maximum. Excelllent stroke that from Smriti Mandhana....
