- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR17.5 taken at backward point! Advancing down the pitch, drives with an open face and it's a simple catch. But it's probably come too late 149/53.4 taken at cover! Mlaba strikes...huge moment. Healy using her feet, trying to go over the off side, cloths it and the captain takes it on the edge of the ring 32/16.5 and she's gone! Perry lean back outside leg, aims to drive square through the off side, it skids through the clips the bails 57/27.6 has she touched it?! Yes, given. Litchfield walks right across the crease to scoop from outside off, gets a thin edge that just reaches the keeper 66/313.2 taken at mid-off! McGrath steps outside leg and launches a drive on the up, but picks out Tryon on the ring 104/4Extras4 (w 4)TOTAL163/5 (19.2 Overs, RR: 8.43)Fall of wickets: 1-32 (Alyssa Healy, 3.4 ov), 2-57 (Ellyse Perry, 6.5 ov), 3-66 (Phoebe Litchfield, 7.6 ov), 4-104 (Tahlia McGrath, 13.2 ov), 5-149 (Beth Mooney, 17.5 ov)
