    2.4 bullseye! Dunkley gets greedy. Dunkley had already won the over with a boundary off the previous ball but this time shuffles way across her stumps trying to scoop over fine leg and misses a good length ball that crashes into leg stump halfway up. 27/1
    16.6 full toss smashed straight to short midwicket! Looped up on the knees at off stump, Wolvaardt tries to smash this over the leg side but hits it too flat. Bobble at chest height by the fielder before taking it on the second attempt. 142/3
    11.5 flighted on a good length on seventh stump and spins away even further, Meghana charges down the track but gets nowhere close to the pitch and flails across the line in vain but can't reach this and a simple stumping is the result for the keeper. 90/2

    18.3 zings in a quicker ball as a low full toss striking Gardner on the toe in front of middle missing a flick across the line after shuffling across her stumps, big lbw shout upheld. Stone dead. Gardner reviews simply because there's only 9 balls left in the innings. But this is 90 seconds of our lives we'll never get back. Gardner herself is already marching to the edge of the boundary rope long before ball-tracking shows up on the replay screen. It's smashing the middle of middle with three reds lighting up. Sigh.... 161/4

    9.2 back of a length ball on fourth stump, Mandhana with yet another tentative poke and checks her shot sending a leading edge ballooning ever so gently back to the bowler who waits for the ball to reach her at chest height before flinging it in the air and celebrating wildly. 125/1
    11.5 the air has just been let out of the balloon at Brabourne! Devine was in one mode and smashes this length delivery on seventh stump as hard as she can rather than trying to nudge a single to bring up what would have been a record-equaling fastest hundred by Devine, but smokes this too flat and a leaping catch is taken on the ring at mid-off knifing this out of the air. The crowd chants, "So-phieeeeeee, So-PHIE!" to the tune of the old "Saaa-chinnnnnnn, Sa-CHIN!" melody as Devine walks off. A 99 that would make Wayne Gretzky proud. 157/2
