- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.1 Alana King makes the breakthrough! First wicket for her in international cricket. Length ball on middle and leg, Beaumont is early into the flick and pops a simple return catch off the thick leading-edge. King is all smiles 82/116.5 McGrath with another yorker and this goes through Wyatt's defence. Outswinging from the hand, it floats beautifully away from the batter, Wyatt tries to dab fine to third man and misses, the off-stump is pegged back 142/316.3 cleaned up! Right up in the blockhole and through Sciver's defences. Very full ball on off-stump, Sciver can't dig it out and the stumps are splayed. McGrath with a punch of the air in celebration 141/218.4 straight to long-on. Full and in the slot, Jones lofts but doesn't have the power to clear the fielder at long-on.
