Kranti Gaud to Wolvaardt, out Bowled!! Cleaned up! Gaud is delighted. This is a massive wicket. Gaud comes back and gets rid of the set batter.

This is accurate, Wolvaardt makes room and fails to get her bat down to keep it out, the ball sneaks under her willow before crashing into the base of the stumps.
