- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4.4 finds cover! Another huge blow for New Zealand. Strange shot from Healy. Short of a length outside off, Healy tries to go up and over the off side but can only spoon up to cover. They are checking for the no-ball, but that's fine 25/21.3 taken at mid-off! That's a big wicket. Mooney trying to break free, tries to clear mid-off with a lofted drive but it comes from quite low on the bat and it's a simple catch for Green 5/18.2 edged, caught behind! Tahuhu gets Lanning again. Terrific captaincy to make the bowling change and Tahuhu responds. In the channel outside off, Lanning pressing forward and it's a thin edge 46/313.1 dragged high into the leg side, and well taken! Haynes went for a slog sweep to a delivery outside off, got too far underneath need and gets more height than distance. Still required a good catch, because that was in the air a long time but Kerr settled very nicely under it at midwicket 81/418.2 and picks out deep midwicket! Gardner's fun over just before she can finish the innings. Was short outside off, she went across the crease and heaved into the leg side but couldn't quite get the distance this time 126/613.4 taken at mid-off! What an over from Devine. Aims to go straight down the ground but can only loft a simple catch to Bates who backtracks a little to take the chance. Not sure that was the best bit of shot selection from Molineux 82/5Extras6 (lb 1, w 5)TOTAL138/6 (20 Overs, RR: 6.9)Fall of wickets: 1-5 (Beth Mooney, 1.3 ov), 2-25 (Alyssa Healy, 4.4 ov), 3-46 (Meg Lanning, 8.2 ov), 4-81 (Rachael Haynes, 13.1 ov), 5-82 (Sophie Molineux, 13.4 ov), 6-126 (Ashleigh Gardner, 18.2 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.5 great work from Healy! Australia appealing for everything. It's not out for a catch down the leg side, but as quick as a flash Healy has taken the bails off as well. This is very tight, Devine was out of the crease for a moment...the foot was then in the air, and the third umpire has given it out! Massive call. He didn't think Devine had managed to ground the foot. Blimey, there was millimeters in that 43/24.4 big leading edge, taken at midwicket! That's what Australia needed. Wasn't the best ball, angled into the pads, but Green was through her shot early, closed the face, and the big leading edge went high into the air to provide a simple catch 27/117.5 and that's that! Such a good over from Schutt. This is a length ball, it's another toe end and lands in the hands of mid-off 105/512.2 falls to the reverse sweep! Healy clings on, grasps the ball next to her body. That's a big moment. Took the top edge and Healy did very well 65/317.2 down the pitch, finds cover! This came off the toe end and didn't carry further than the edge of the circle. Pace off from Schutt, well bowled 105/419.1 moves across the crease and scoops a length ball into the hands of short fine leg 115/619.4 taken at deep midwicket, that's four for Schutt...Jensen came down the pitch but just ended up offering catching practice 116/7Extras9 (b 1, lb 2, nb 2, w 4)TOTAL121/7 (20 Overs, RR: 6.05)Fall of wickets: 1-27 (Maddy Green, 4.4 ov), 2-43 (Sophie Devine, 8.5 ov), 3-65 (Amy Satterthwaite, 12.2 ov), 4-105 (Katey Martin, 17.2 ov), 5-105 (Suzie Bates, 17.5 ov), 6-115 (Amelia Kerr, 19.1 ov), 7-116 (Hayley Jensen, 19.4 ov)
