    10.3 Flummoxes her with a corker! Saw her shimming down leg and cleverly held her length back, angled it across, ball smiled and deviated away from her bat as she attempted to cut but was too far away from the line, it was quicker too, Wraith picks it up cleanly and removes the bails in split seconds! Sharp stumping. Could say it was an unwise shot, left the crease a bit too early 65/3
    2.3 Good length and drifts in sharply at middle, hurriedly chops it away to cover-point and that's a dodgy call for a run, non-striker is struggling and puts in a full-length dive but it's a direct hit which are always dangerous, yes, Wolvaardt is short of the crease, what a massive breakthrough! She was on fire, and will be gutted to get out in this fashion. Exceptional, vigilant, agile and sharp work in the field from Nat Sciver-Brunt - she has a big beaming smile on her face, knows the value of this wicket 13/1

    6.5 Clatters the stumps! exhilarating ebbs and flows continue, Graham sat deep in the crease and went down in a bid to slog sweep it away, the ball was purposefully darted fuller and tailed in, missing her ambitious slog and wrecking the stumps. What a lovely sight for the bowler! Graham looks distraught 45/2
    17.5 Down on one knee and picks out long-on who ran to her right and caught it brilliantly under her eyes, sharp running catch. She thought she got all of it, thumped it down but just didn't have enough power behind it 117/4
    19.5 Round the wicket, rams it fuller on middle, rifles it straight back towards stumps at non-striker's end, ball uproots stumps, non-striker and batter both standing at batter's end having a chat about the mix-up probably. Meanwhile,Graham places the stump back in its place and ends the innings with a run-out. 137/6
    19.2 You miss, I hit! Sounds the death rattle with a pitch-perfect length ball that snakes in and beats her swing towards the leg side, outgunned by the late movement. Excellent delivery, keeping it tight at the stumps 132/5

    1.3 Another steepler around the line off, surprised her with the hard length, she stood still deep in her crease, trying to get on top of the bounce and played a nothing shot in the end, get a top-edge that balloons up and keeper settles under to take a calm catch. Miscued it big time, excellent comeback after a sloppy start 13/1
    7.4 Nicely done by Ecclestone, she skedaddled down the track trying to punch it down to long-on, ball turned away just enough to beat her bat and Threlkeld does the rest, sends zingers flying everywhere, breaks the stand at a crucial juncture. 47/3
    4.4 Over the wicket, hides the ball, absolute snorter that lifts quite steeply off the deck, offers width and her eyes lit up, she backed away a touch to play an upper-cut, glides it straight to Monaghan who takes a stunning catch at deep backward point while charging in from the rope, perfectly pouched in the deep 37/2

    19.3 Slammed in on a length at off, she gets underneath it and launched it high into the sky but hasn't got the distance, Mooney at wide long-on moves to her right and has taken a gem, twist in the tale. Wanted to finish the game in style but got perished in her attempt for a glory shot. 133/4
