Malki Madara to Rodrigues, no run, slower-ball on a length on middle, Rodrigues gets forward to gently turn it to mid-wicket
2.5

Malki Madara to Rodrigues, FOUR, "ayyuuuuuuuuuu" is the cry from Kaushani Nuthyangana after the thick top-edge flies wide of short third man. It's a short of length delivery outside off, Rodrigues cuts late and the edge flies away where a slip would have been
2.4
Malki Madara to Rodrigues, no run, Kaushani Nuthyangana up to the stumps. On a good length outside off, Rodrigues goes on the back foot and turns it to mid-wicket
2.3
Malki Madara to Rodrigues, 2 runs, tight 2nd and Smriti was struggling. A direct-hit would have been interesting. Rodrigues shuffles across and exposes her stumps as he shimmies down the pitch, flicks it from middle-stump and then gets it wide of deep backward square-leg
2.2
Malki Madara to Rodrigues, no run, full and shapes back in late from outside off, Rodrigues gets forward to drive and the thick inside-edge hits the pad and rolls away to the cover region
2.1
Malki Madara to Smriti, 1 run, good length and on off, Smriti goes on the back foot and punches it to sweeper cover

Malki Madara to Shafali Verma, FOUR, full outside off, Shafali Verma gets forward and drives it wide and places it in the gap between cover and mid-off, races away, India off to a fine start
0.5
Malki Madara to Smriti, 1 run, good length on off, Smriti goes on the back foot and punches it square of the wicket on the off-side
0.4
Malki Madara to Shafali Verma, 1 run, again on the move and punched back to Malki Madara, she dives to her right and gets a hand, but can't stop it cleanly, gives away one
0.3
Malki Madara to Shafali Verma, no run, full outside off, Shafali Verma walks forward and drives it hard and straight to mid-off

Malki Madara to Shafali Verma, FOUR, Shafali Verma gets going with a four. A short of length delivery on off, Shafali goes on the back foot and pulls over square-leg, makes the free-hit count
0.2
Malki Madara to Smriti, no ball, 1 run, mid-wicket misjudges that so badly. On a good length on off, Smriti goes on the back foot to pull and miscues it, wouldn't have mattered as this is a front foot no-ball. Mid-wicket went back and never looked like taking it, in the end was well away from the ball as she stretched her hands in front
0.1
Malki Madara to Smriti, no run, good length and curves from outside the leg-stump to middle, Smriti goes on the back foot to defend to cover
