- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.4 Another loopy length ball as Jonassen pats to the right of cover. Oh! Oh! A yes and no situation and Lanning is run out! This was on the cards, the running has been all over the place. There was no communication whatsoever there. Jonassen ran with the shot and Lanning had no chance to make once Amanjot's throw was on the mark. Bhatia whips off the bails. Lanning is furious, and Mumbai are absolutely elated! 74/51.3 High full toss that balloons straight up and point takes it comfortably. Shafali is pleading for a no-ball. The two batters get together. The umpire has a word with Lanning. The umpires have gone upstairs. It is an umpire review, to be clear. Looks high, oh this is touch and go. So close. They are looking at the ball-tracker, and it is not a no-ball. Shafali can't believe it. It looked touch and go, and I guess the third umpire has given the benefit of the doubt to the bowler. 12/11.5 The full tosses are getting Mumbai the wickets! What's going on! Wong has two wickets with balls that should have ideally been deposited in the stand. High full toss outside off. Think Capsey was caught off guard and ends up bunting it to cover who dives forward and takes a good catch. The third umpire has been summoned again, but this is below waist-high. 12/24.2 Would you believe it? Another full toss gets Wong a wicket! Why even bowl anything else. Late swing on that full bunger outside off, and Rodrigues just opens the face of the bat looking to drive it square. Can't keep it down and point gobbles it up easily. 35/310.3 Kerr strikes back and gets the big wicket of Kapp! Just when Delhi were getting the momentum. Tossed up outside off, holding its line. Kapp goes back and across, and looks to defend it. Can only manage a thin edge on it and Bhatia completes a good catch. 73/413.2 Oh, she grabs the catch now! Jonassen falls and surely Mumbai should look to wrap this innings up soon. Almost an action-replay of the first ball. Jonassen lines up for the sweep but Matthews tossed that up generously. She is early into the shot and gets it off the toe-edge of the bat to the right of Matthews, who is not dropping it twice in a row. 75/712.6 Another one bites the dust and Capitals are in all sorts! Good length ball on off and middle with a bit of extra bounce. Reddy looks for a sweep, does not account for the bounce and can only get a top-edge to Ishaque who runs to her left from short fine-leg and completes the catch 75/615.4 Massive appeal for stumping, and looks like Bhatia has effected a stumping! Looped up outside off, baiting Mani into a drive. She reaches for it and is beaten comprehensively. Bhatia whips off the bails in an instance and Mani is well outside her crease. 79/815.6 Oh, my word, what a delivery! An offspinner's delight! Flight, turn, and on point. Loops the length ball outside off, and gets it to turn in sharply breaching Bhatia's defences. The ball goes through her bat and pad and rattles middle stump. Matthews finishes with figures of 3 for 5 off her four overs! 79/9Extras1 (lb 1)TOTAL131/9 (20 Overs, RR: 6.55)Fall of wickets: 1-12 (Shafali Verma, 1.3 ov), 2-12 (Alice Capsey, 1.5 ov), 3-35 (Jemimah Rodrigues, 4.2 ov), 4-73 (Marizanne Kapp, 10.3 ov), 5-74 (Meg Lanning, 11.4 ov), 6-75 (Arundhati Reddy, 12.6 ov), 7-75 (Jess Jonassen, 13.2 ov), 8-79 (Minnu Mani, 15.4 ov), 9-79 (Taniya Bhatia, 15.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.4 Flighted ball is chipped low, taken by straight midwicket! Was slow and full on leg, Matthews made ample room and tried to whack it straight. Got it off the bottom, well taken by Arundhati. 23/21.3 May full tosses reign supreme! Yastika charged down the pitch and got a loopy full bunger around thigh-high. Tried to biff it across the line, managed to sky it to deep midwicket for a comfortable catch. The ball did wobble in Capsey's hand but she managed to cling on, to the bowler's delight. 13/116.1 Harman risks a single to midwicket, Capsey knocks off the bails and is celebrating. Sent upstairs. Harman just slid her bat into the ground but was like a yard behind as the bails lit up. Capitals' fielders are chuffed. Was a full ball that was flicked straight to Capsey, which ended up being costly. 95/3Extras6 (lb 3, w 3)TOTAL134/3 (19.3 Overs, RR: 6.87)Fall of wickets: 1-13 (Yastika Bhatia, 1.3 ov), 2-23 (Hayley Matthews, 3.4 ov), 3-95 (Harmanpreet Kaur, 16.1 ov)
