Gunn to Haynes, out Caught by Sciver!! Skipper departs after playing her part. Goes after a length delivery with a loft but can't beat Sciver at long-on. Another easy catch there but Haynes' impressive knock helps Australia inch closer to the 150-run mark. Haynes c Sciver b Gunn 65(45) [4s-8 6s-1]

W
Sciver to Haynes, out Delissa Kimmince Run Out!! 1 run completed. A good tag team effort by Gunn and Sciver there, results in a run out. Was a full toss that was clubbed to long-on by Haynes. She wanted to keep the strike, hence called for the second. Her partner obliged but couldn't get back for the second in time. Easy run out! She was miles out of the crease. Delissa Kimmince run out (Gunn/Sciver) 1(2)

W
Gunn to Sophie Molineux, out Caught by Sciver!! So, Sophie's struggle finally comes to an end. She was finding it difficult to time the ball and the one she connects, it goes straight down the throat of long-on. In the slot around off and Sophie Molineux looks to clear long-on with a migthy heave, can't. Sciver there, doesn't have to move an inch. Perfect reverse cup, staring into the sun. Sophie Molineux c Sciver b Gunn 6(12)

F
Gunn to Haynes, 1 run, maiden T20I fifty for Haynes! Skipper is leading from front today. Not a convincing shot though. Tossed up delivery outside off, heaves at it and gets an outside edge to short third man
16.4

Hazell to Haynes, FOUR, that's the first boundary after been put down. Walks down the track and smacks the flighted ball right over the bowler's head, long-off tries hard to save it but it's an effort, all in vain
16.2
Hazell to Haynes, 1 run, can't get any easier! Smith puts down a sitter at point. Even she can't believe it. Tossed up delivery around off, Haynes goes for it with a wild swing and gets a leading edge to point. In and out! How costly though?

Knight to Haynes, FOUR, there's no stopping Haynes today. Dances down the wicket and slogs the tossed up delivery right into the gap at mid-wicket. Split the fielder at deep mid-wicket and long-on with precision

Ecclestone to Haynes, FOUR, continues to impress, does Haynes. Puts on her dancing shoes and whips it nicely over mid-wicket and right into the gap
12.4
W
Hazell to Perry, out Caught by Bryony Smith!! Gone! A soft dismissal. This is a big wicket and England know that. It was floated wide of off and Perry stepped out of her crease to drill it through covers. Doesn't keep it down and hits it straight to Smith at short cover. A sharp catch taken and Australia have lost their fifth wicket. Perry c Bryony Smith b Hazell 2(3)
11.1

Katie George to Haynes, FOUR, pulled away! Short delivery around off, Haynes keeps her eyes on the ball and swivel-pulls it through square leg, no chance to stop that
10.5
W
Gunn to Villani, out Caught by Alice Richards!! Villani perishes! That was a full toss meant to be put away and Villani would be livid with herself. Receives a gift on the pads and the batter whips it away nicely to fine leg, however Alice guarding that region, swiftly charges to the ball, settles underneath and takes it safely. Villani c Alice Richards b Gunn 5(7)
10.1

Gunn to Haynes, FOUR, Australia's charge continues. The wickets are making no difference. Full and wide outside off, Haynes makes sure to pummel it over Hazell and eludes the fielder at long-on, four more

W
Sciver to Gardner, out Caught by Beaumont!! After conceding two maximums Sciver makes a strong comeback. Has the last laugh! Length delivery outside off, Gardner plays it with soft hands and looks to punch it on the up. End result - an outside edge and Beaumont takes it neatly. Both Australian set batters are back to the hut now. Gardner c Beaumont b Sciver 28(16) [4s-3 6s-2]

Sciver to Gardner, SIX, that's the second biggie of this over. Full length delivery around off, Gardner chips that to perfection, with a high elbow and way she goes, right over the bowler's head and clears the fence. Six more!

Sciver to Gardner, SIX, this is what Healy was trying to do. She failed, but Gardner gets it right. Short of a length delivery around off, Gardner picks the length early and drags it over mid-wicket, high and over, clean strike
7.1
W
Sciver to Alyssa Healy, out Caught by Wyatt!! That was timed to perfection but straight to the fielder at deep mid-wicket. Full length delivery on middle and leg, Healy picked it up nicely with an aerial flick. She got the elevation and the distance too, however Wyatt stationed herself nicely and reverse cupped it just near the boundary. Healy's entertaining cameo comes to an end with that. Alyssa Healy c Wyatt b Sciver 31(23) [4s-2 6s-2]

Ecclestone to Gardner, FOUR, that's hammered! Gets a juicy full toss on the pads and makes sure to club that away, beats the fielder at deep mid-wicket by some distance and finds the fence

Ecclestone to Alyssa Healy, SIX, she's in good nick today, isn't she? Look at this shot. Moves away and goes inside out against the tossed up delivery. It's a perfect chip and just clears the fence at covers
3.5
W
Katie George to Beth Mooney, out Beth Mooney Run Out!! Brilliant pick up by Katie and an ever better throw. Mooney dug out the yorker back to George and set off for a run, but wasn't aware of the fact that it rolled back to the bowler. Katie did well to gather the ball in her followthrough and soon after, scored a direct hit at the striker's end. Even a dive couldn't save the batter on that occasion, her bat was slightly in the air. Beth Mooney run out (Katie George) 4(9)
3.3
Katie George to Alyssa Healy, 1 run, excellent display of fielding. Healy flicks the full length delivery to short mid-wicket where Sciver stops it with a slide and as she is in the momentum, goes ahead with a throw at the striker's end. Mooney was way outside her crease, and if this was a direct hit, she was gone!

Ecclestone to Alyssa Healy, FOUR, plays that with soft hands and reaps its benefits. That was spinning away after it hit the deck, Healy got her bat down in time, played it with soft hands and got an outside edge to it, evades short third man and finds the fence
1.5
6
Katie George to Alyssa Healy, SIX, her first boundary wasn't convincing enough, but this one is. Moves away, picks up the length early and swings her bat, gets it right off the meat and towers it over mid-wicket for half a dozen.

Sciver to Alyssa Healy, FOUR, edge straightaway! Full length delivery with a bit of away swing on that, Healy hangs her bat at it and gets an outside edge, down to the third man fence. Had been there a fielder in the slip, this was a catch. An easy catch!
