- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4 she's chopped on! Tammy, what have you done? Looking for another cut, but this one is too cramped to the body, bounce and induck, and she bows her head in dismay! 19/21.2 Perry strikes with a shorter ball, Jones is pinned back a little, tries to pull and gets a thick edge, the ball pops into the air and Alyssa Healy just has to run a little to her left and wait for it to drop into the gloves. 7/14.1 another inswinger and England are in tatters! Taylor plays across the wrong line to a tight off-stump inswinger, wrist behind the ball, and the stumps are wrecked again! 19/35.1 Knight walks across her stumps to an inswinger, and that is utterly plumb! She looks dismayed, but there's no doubt about that, failing to read the swing, thumped on the pad flap, right back on the crease. The skipper has to walk! 19/437.4 she's gone for the sweep, missed, and the ball smacks her right on the front pad, directly in line 135/811.2 and Jonassen strikes! It's in line but Fran Wilson is furious. Believes she made contact. Replays suggest strongly there was glove there first. Looks very unlucky but no reviews so she has to accept it. 44/526.4 faster, flatter, skids into a hurried pull, and up goes the finger! Brunt was suckered on the back foot, looked on the high side but was probably hitting leg - indeed it was, and most of middle too, three-quarters of the way up. The end of a battling innings but England still have loads to do 98/629.4 stunning one-handed pluck at mid-off! Shrubsole has a mow, doesn't connect properly, but the ball balloons seemingly out of reach of Haynes ... but oh no it wasn't! A superbly timed stretching leap, and England are back in the soup! 103/745.4 full and straight, Ecclestone goes for a similar shot but it sails straight to Beth Mooney just inside the boundary at long-on, ending a neat cameo 173/946.5 a beautiful delivery! It's a leg-cutter which completely beats the bat, curling round the batsman's body and clattering into off stump. 177/10Extras7 (lb 1, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL177 all out (46.5 Overs, RR: 3.77)Fall of wickets: 1-7 (Amy Jones, 1.2 ov), 2-19 (Tammy Beaumont, 3.6 ov), 3-19 (Sarah Taylor, 4.1 ov), 4-19 (Heather Knight, 5.1 ov), 5-44 (Fran Wilson, 11.2 ov), 6-98 (Katherine Sciver-Brunt, 26.4 ov), 7-103 (Anya Shrubsole, 29.4 ov), 8-135 (Nat Sciver-Brunt, 37.4 ov), 9-173 (Sophie Ecclestone, 45.4 ov), 10-177 (Kate Cross, 46.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4.1 a vital early breakthrough for England ... good length, she's gone on the drive and it goes through to the keeper 16/125.5 over the wicket this time, and holed out to the sweeper! Wow, that is a massive moment in this game. England will be favourites for the first time today... that was travelling fast to Fran Wilson, who dived well to pounce! 105/512.1 full and straight and onto the front pad! Brunt makes the breakthrough 45/217.3 stunning glovework from the fastest hands in the West! Down the leg side, the bails are off in a trice, and Sarah Taylor has bagged a massive wicket again! She lost sight of the ball for most of its trajectory, but her gloves were there with Jedi-like certainty, and she's given England a glimmer! 67/322.1 pinned on the pad and that's plumb! This is crucial ... wicket to wicket, flat and straight, it looked for a moment as though it had wriggled onto the stumps, which shows how in line it was. England are still brawling! 92/433.2 bowled her! There's the one England needed! Attempting the ramp, walking across her stumps, looking to work the ball over the keeper but missed it completely! 150/728.5 huge appeal for caught behind, and up goes the finger! Is that an inside-edge? It would appear so ... might have been a bit high for the lbw either way, but another fine take from Taylor as England prise another key opening! 125/639.5 that's a terrible stroke and England have the breakthrough when they least expect it! Leaning back on a terrible leg-side hoick, hoped to clear mid-on, but it's straight down her throat! Oh my word, what a moment! Tempted to go over the top, and tempted to her doom! 167/8Extras16 (b 1, lb 4, w 11)TOTAL178/8 (42.3 Overs, RR: 4.18)Did not bat: M SchuttFall of wickets: 1-16 (Nicole Bolton, 4.1 ov), 2-45 (Meg Lanning, 12.1 ov), 3-67 (Ellyse Perry, 17.3 ov), 4-92 (Rachael Haynes, 22.1 ov), 5-105 (Alyssa Healy, 25.5 ov), 6-125 (Ashleigh Gardner, 28.5 ov), 7-150 (Beth Mooney, 33.2 ov), 8-167 (Jess Jonassen, 39.5 ov)
