Kranti Gaud to Healy, out Bowled!! Dragged on! This is what a pause can do. Call it the break, call it the drizzle. Small change in the flow of the game and it often impacts play. Also, Healy seemed a bit concerned about the rain and was covering the bat from the drizzle as they were waiting for the lights to come on. Kranti came into the side today, didn't start well but she's struck gold here. She roars and Harman will feel a lot lighter now. The dangerous Alyssa Healy, who had a life earlier, is gone trying to defend this nip-backer. Wobble seam has been Kranti Gaud's strategy. Healy got the bat down at an angle and she got an edge that clattered into the middle stump. To make things interesting, rain picked up as the bowler was running in. Tell you what, the players are being taken off the field because it's heavy enough now. Healy b Kranti Gaud 5(15)

2.2
Renuka Singh to Healy, 1 run, in the airrrr and Harman puts down a sitter! Gee, you can't drop Alyssa Healy in a big knockout game. She and India will be hoping that this won't hurt them badly. Full ball swinging back in, Healy wasn't playing the inswingers with great control. She tried to break-free with a lofted drive over mid-off. Bat turned in her hands to force a mishit. Harman made enough ground to the right, stretched and got both hands but it didn't stick. Dugout couldn't believe it, so can the crowd

Renuka Singh to Healy, wide, and again! She is getting good inswing now but the line is too straight so she is straying down leg. Richa collects to the left

Renuka Singh to Healy, wide, definite inswing but finishing too far down leg. Healy tried to tickle it fine for couldn't get bat on ball
0.1
Renuka Singh to Healy, no run, nice and full, looking for whatever swing is on offer, not much in this though. Healy toe-ends the front foot drive to cover as it was too close to her
