India Women vs New Zealand Women, 24th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Rosemary Mair to Richa Ghosh, FOUR, the innings finishes with a boundary. Good length outside off, Richa looks to go over extra cover but it takes a healthy edge and flies past the diving keeper. India have 340 on the board!

Rosemary Mair to Kaur, out Caught by Eden Carson!! Dives across and grabs it with both hands! The field was up on the off-side and it would've raced away had Harman found the gap. Not to be. Wasn't a great delivery from Mair, was short and wide outside off and the Indian captain slapped it hard. Went in the air and Carson took it nicely to her right. Kaur c Eden Carson b Rosemary Mair 10(11) [4s-1]

Rosemary Mair to Rodrigues, FOUR, dropped! Lofted down the ground after stepping out, goes to the left of Green at long-off, she's on the run while reaching out with both hands to her left and shells the chance

Rosemary Mair to Kaur, FOUR, pierces the gap through point! Slower one outside off, not a whole lot of width but Harmanpreet waits nicely and cuts it through point

Eden Carson to Rodrigues, FOUR, waits just that touch longer on the cut to find the gap this time! Short and wide outside off, not a great delivery and Rodrigues makes sure she capitalises

Eden Carson to Rodrigues, FOUR, excellent batting. Backs away to target the off-side field. There's no one at the cover boundary and she reaches out to slap it over the infield with Carson tossing it well wide of off

Eden Carson to Rodrigues, FOUR, the reverse-sweep comes out! Turning in from outside off, she gets into position quickly and drags it past short third

Amelia Kerr to Rodrigues, FOUR, fifty for Rodrigues after being brought back into the team. Great response from her. It's the fastest fifty of the tournament for India and a good knock in the circumstances where they needed quick runs. Gets there with another boundary, finding the gap through the covers with this drive

Amelia Kerr to Pratika Rawal, out Caught by (sub)Rowe!! Incredible catch in the deep! It's the substitute Hannah Rowe and she has pulled off a beauty. But take a moment first to applaud this effort from Pratika. A top knock from her to put India in a dominating position. Tries a repeat of the previous shot as she dances down for the lofted hit. Slices it this time to the left of long-off and Rowe covers good ground before pulling out the dive to hang on with both hands. Pratika Rawal c (sub)Rowe b Amelia Kerr 122(134) [4s-13 6s-2]

Amelia Kerr to Pratika Rawal, SIX, gets right to the pitch of the ball this time! Lovely use of the feet, makes some room as well to extend the arms and launches it straight back

Bates to Rodrigues, FOUR, consistently finding the boundaries! Full on leg stump, Rodrigues swipes across the line and gets it away wide of long-on

Bates to Rodrigues, FOUR, really picking her areas and executing the shots to perfection here! Makes room, gets a full delivery on leg stump and drills it through extra cover

Jess Kerr to Rodrigues, FOUR, now with the open face! Showing her range and timing! Full and wide, Rodrigues reaches out and slices it away in the gap between backward point and short third

Jess Kerr to Rodrigues, FOUR, picks her spot nicely! Good length on off, mid-off is in the ringand Rodrigues lofts it cleanly over the fielder. Really good strike through the line

Bates to Rodrigues, 1 run, New Zealand lose a review! Flighted delivery on off, Jemimah sits down and gloves the reverse sweep towards short third. Bates and Isabella Gaze were confident but they were wrong

Bates to Pratika Rawal, 2 runs, dropped! Green has put down a sitter. Not something you associate with New Zealand. Pratika shimmies out early and Bates dragged the length back, Pratika went through with the loft and miscued it towards long-off. Green comes in and gets both hands but the ball does not stick

Rosemary Mair to Pratika Rawal, SIX, the shackles are broken. Pratika needs to step up and she starts by sending this over the rope. Good length delivery, she maintains a solid base and heaves it over deep mid-wicket

Rosemary Mair to Pratika Rawal, 1 run, maiden World Cup hundred for Pratika. It has been a controlled innings. It might have not come at a quick rate but she has held her end up superbly. Coach Muzumdar stands up and applauds. Pratika takes off her helmet and raises her bat. Jemimah goes across and embraces her in a hug. She has had starts in this tournament but finally converted it into a big score. No hundreds for India before today in the competition and they have two today. Fullish delivery outside off, Pratika slices the drive to point and Jemimah pushes her across for a quick single

Amelia Kerr to Rodrigues, FOUR, not off the middle but Jemimah picks up the boundary. Floated up around off, she shuffles across and sits down to play the lap sweep, gets a top-edge and the ball runs away fine. Jess Kerr gives chase but takes the ball along with her over the rope

Devine to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, fumble and Pratika picks up the boundary. Full and outside off, right where she likes it, Pratika opens the bat face and drives towards cover-point, the fielder dives over the ball and there's no sweeper in place

Devine to Rodrigues, FOUR, lovely shot! Full pitcher outside off, Jemimah has a good stride forward and creams the drive in front of square. No chance for the sweeper

Bates to Mandhana, out Caught by (sub)Rowe!! Taken on the second attempt. Bates is pumped as she breaks the partnership and gives New Zealand a much needed breakthrough. Mandhana walks off to a standing ovation. She's given India a solid platform to explode. Does not quite get under this flighted delivery, goes through with the slog sweep and miscues it towards cow corner, Rowe runs to her right and tries to take it with both hands, but the ball pops out and she reacts quickly to cling on. She was close to the rope as well but keeps her balance. A fine knock from Mandhana comes to an end. Mandhana c (sub)Rowe b Bates 109(95) [4s-10 6s-4]

Jess Kerr to Mandhana, no ball, SIX, that must have slipped out. Another attempted slower ball goes wrong for Kerr - high full toss above the waist and Mandhana heaves it all the way over deep square leg. Might have been a tired delivery.. Free-hit coming up

Jess Kerr to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, a gimme from Kerr and Pratika takes full toll. Slower ball down leg, Pratika kneels down and sweeps it over short fine. She just needed to pick her spot and got plenty of bat to clear the leaping fielder. That brings up the 200-run stand..

Jess Kerr to Mandhana, 1 run, hundred for Mandhana. She started the tournament slowly but has found her groove in the last 3 games. Fifties against Australia and England, now she converts it into a ton. Bishop asked Harmanpreet at the toss about the lack of hundreds from India's batters, Mandhana has answered that question in fine manner. She pumps her fists and takes off her helmet to acknowledge the applause. Top knock! Angled across Mandhana and she knocks it to sweeper cover

Bates to Mandhana, FOUR, did the fielder not spot it? Back of a length outside off, cutter, she opens the face and glides it to the left of short third who hardly moves and seems to suggest she didn't see it

Amelia Kerr to Mandhana, FOUR, doesn't get hold of this one but it still goes to the boundary. Again plenty of flight, length is very full and Mandhana tries the sweep this time. Drags it behind square

Amelia Kerr to Mandhana, SIX, alarm bells must be going off for New Zealand. Things getting out of control. Tossed up on off, lands right in the slot and Mandhana launches it over long-on

Lea Tahuhu to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, she's catching up to Mandhana in a hurry. Short of length outside off, gets on top of the bounce and pulls hard in front of square. Races away to the midwicket boundary

Lea Tahuhu to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, sliced to perfection! Full and wide, Pratika reaches out, opens the face and carves it through backward point. Brilliant timing and she has picked up the pace after getting to fifty

Amelia Kerr to Mandhana, no run, that looks dead as she misses a swipe across the line. Yes, the umpire raises her finger but Mandhana has reviewed. Oh there's a spike on UltraEdge. Mandhana didn't think there was any bat involved and was walking off. Amelia Kerr throws her hands up in disbelief. Plenty of flight on this legbreak, lands on middle and strikes Mandhana on the pad as she has a big swipe across the line. The review was taken in hope as she definitely didn't feel an edge

Lea Tahuhu to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, she's raising the tempo here. Full on the pads, whips it in the air over midwicket and the timing is sublime

Amelia Kerr to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, Pratika takes the attack to Amelia Kerr as soon as she's brought back! Down the track off the first ball, gets to the pitch and lofts it over mid-on

Devine to Mandhana, FOUR, you can put as many fielders as you want over there, Mandhana will continue to pepper the boundary. What touch, what timing. Slower one angling away outside off, plays very late and dabs it fine past the keeper

Rosemary Mair to Mandhana, FOUR, loose delivery and punished! It's down leg, back of a length and Mandhana pulls it fine past the keeper

Rosemary Mair to Pratika Rawal, 1 run, Pratika raises fifty! Good length outside off, plays it on the up and knocks it to deep point. Raises her bat to the dressing room where Renuka holds up a placard which has 100 written on it along with a sketch of a peacock. The message is clear

Rosemary Mair to Mandhana, FOUR, Mandhana continues to flow! Advances down, gets a short one at the body and nails the pull over midwicket

Eden Carson to Mandhana, FOUR, second time she's gone over mid-on off Carson, and again the ball is full enough to allow her to hit across the line. Has to pull it back slightly

Eden Carson to Mandhana, 1 run, third consecutive fifty from Mandhana! Had a slow start to the tournament but has bounced back in style! Knocks this one through the point region to bring up the milestone

Eden Carson to Mandhana, FOUR, goes for the big shot and gets the boundary! Full at the stumps, drifting in, and Mandhana hits across the line to clear mid-on. Length was full enough that she didn't have to worry about playing against the turn

Jess Kerr to Mandhana, FOUR, there's the region behind point that Mandhana absolutely loves! Has scored heavily in that region in previous matches, particularly the England game. Nothing wrong with the delivery. Good length and angling away outside off, but her ability to play late stands out as she opens the face and guides it in the gap

Amelia Kerr to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, controlled shot for four! Dipping on a good length outside off, Pratika opens the face on the drive, caresses it through backward point and beats the fielder in the deep as well. Sweeper seemed to be a little too straight

Amelia Kerr to Mandhana, SIX, juicy full toss and Mandhana can do with it whatever she wants! Skips down, swings across the line and smokes it over midwicket. Don't see this very often with Amelia Kerr

Lea Tahuhu to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, Pratika has decided to step on the gas. Fullish delivery and this was in the slot, Pratika presents the full face of the bat and lofts it straight back over, another one that bounces just inside the rope

Lea Tahuhu to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, lovely shot! Not a bad delivery by any stretch. Back of a length but Pratika stands tall, gets under it and pumps it over mid-on, one bounce and over the ropes

Lea Tahuhu to Pratika Rawal, leg byes, FOUR, wrong line and Tahuhu concedes four more. Slanted down leg, Pratika does not get bat on the glance but the ball deflects off the pad, beats a diving Isabella Gaze and races away

Lea Tahuhu to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, Tahuhu is all over the place. Short and wide outside off, Pratika does not miss out, she gets on top of the bounce and cracks it behind square on the off-side. Two fielders in the point region and she split them perfectly

Devine to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, finally some intent by Pratika. High time she got going. Fraction short and Pratika is quick to latch on, pulls off the front foot and clears the mid-wicket region comfortably. She brings up 1000 runs in ODIs

Eden Carson to Mandhana, SIX, lovely shot! She's so good with this shot. Uses her feet, gets to the pitch of the ball and gives herself enough room to free her hands, lofts it inside out with the spin and clears wide long-off

Devine to Mandhana, FOUR, starts the over with a boundary. Angled across and there was enough width for Smriti to flay this behind square, opened the bat face and placed it between the two fielders inside the ring

Eden Carson to Mandhana, FOUR, first four for Smriti. Carson drifts down leg and that's easy pickings, Smriti crouches low and sweeps backward of square. Hopefully that gets her going..

Rosemary Mair to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, in the air and over the infield. Pratika would have had her heart in her mouth for a second. Very full delivery outside off, Pratika opens the bat face and slices it towards point, gets enough elevation to clear the inner ring and pick up her second boundary

Rosemary Mair to Pratika Rawal, FOUR, first boundary of the innings. It has taken a while but hopefully it opens the gates. Full and angling into the pads, Pratika leans forward and flicks it square. The fielder was at fine leg and was nowhere close to stopping that
