    6.4 McGrath juggles... once, twice, thrice and taken! Another short ball outside off, Dunkley is leaning back as she looks to slash it over cover. Only gets height and not the distance. TMac settles under it at covers but is a tad unsettled. It pops out the first time and then after a couple of juggles, hangs on. Warm hugs and celebrations follow. 57/1
    16.4 short and wide, but straight down deep third's throat this time! The boundary-rider was relatively wide and Wyatt didn't have much timing on this occasion. Wareham gets round to her right and pouches it 150/7
    11.2 no timing this time, and straight down Sutherland's throat! A touch fuller, Sciver-Brunt's eyes light up as she looks to go over the top but she holes out to long-on, running in off the rope 100/2
    12.2 top edge spoons up, and Healy settles underneath it! Sutherland sees Capsey skipping down the pitch and bangs this one in halfway down. She looks to hook over the leg side, above her head, but can only get a thick top edge on it which loops up towards short fine leg. Healy does the rest 109/3
    12.3 knocks her over first ball! This is an absolute ripper. Cross-seamer, angling in from wide on the crease then straightening off the pitch to beat the outside edge of Knight's push and knock her off stump back 109/4
    13.2 brilliant fielding in the deep from Sutherland, England are imploding! That's four wickets in 13 balls. Jones looks to swing her over the leg side and Sutherland makes good ground to her right from wide long-on. She dives low and clings onto a superb catch. She has almost single-handedly changed this game 112/5
    14.6 short ball, swatted straight to mid-off! Gibson gets into a bizarre position as the bumper sits up off the pitch. She plays something akin to a two-handed forehand smash, but it's straight to Brown on the edge of the ring. 119/6
    19.6 swung out to deep midwicket and Dean races back for two at the bowler's end... but Gardner realises that Ecclestone is dawdling, so throws to Healy who whips off the bails with Ecclestone short of her ground 186/9
    19.1 skips down, thick outside edge skews away to short third where Brown takes an excellent catch, diving low to her right. Fast, flat offbreak, Glenn almost manages to york herself by using her feet, and it pops up towards the edge of the ring 181/8

    6.2 Knocked her over! Almost on cue as Beamont was heaping praise on Glenn on-air. Slows it down and lands it on a length on middle, Healy is across early to exploit the short fine leg region. But she has to wait a tad because of the lack of pace. Does so and looks to swipe but misses and is bowled. 59/1
    8.6 Mooney has been displaced! A maiden wicket in T20Is for Gibson and it is a massive one. Bowls it on a length around off and middle, Mooney looks to heave it away over the on side. Picks out deep midwicket to perfection. Wyatt pouches that safely and England are ecstatic. 71/3
    7.4 Dropped and then a run-out! It is all happening! Everybody go to Dean, who is on the floor and land on her in celebration. Tossed up outside off, Mooney charges down and drives it aerially towards mid-off. Dean is low in a bid to catch that but it lands just short. In the meantime, Mooney is down for the run and McGrath is late to respond. Dean recovers but fires a wide through to Jones, who quickly dives and knocks down the stumps at her end. Uff! 65/2
    9.3 And Ecclestone extracts revenge next ball! A 100th T20I wicket for her and England are in firm control. Bowls it fuller and quicker. Gardner looks to drill it back but spoons an easy catch back. The Oval has well and truly found its voice. 75/4

    12.2 bowled her, Australia lose a fifth! Quick, flat offbreak which beats Harris all ends up. Full, no spin as Harris looks to play across the line and whip off the pads through midwicket. In the end, she's beaten by the lack of turn and looks quizically as the ball beats her on the outside edge of the bat 96/5
    15.3 smashed straight to extra cover! Sutherland shimmies down, looking to go into-out over cover but lofts it straight to Knight, who holds onto a stinger on the edge of the ring and tumbles to her left as she clings onto the ball 125/6

    18.4 timbeeerrrrrrrr! Off stump is pegged back and England are nearly there! Back of the hand slower ball, on a length. Wareham looks to swing it over midwicket, down on one knee, and is through the shot far too early 160/7
    19.2 holes out to Capsey at long-on! Ecclestone gives this one some flight, asking Jonassen to manufacture something. She swipes across the line, looking to go over the leg side, but picks out the fielder on the rope 168/8
