- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.6 has Mooney run herself out? She has! Horror mix up! Mooney punches off the back foot straight to cover and took off for a run without even looking where it went, which she has a habit of doing, Healy quite rightly sent her back, James gathered and fired back to the keeper and Mooney was just short as she stretched for ground! 13/14.1 caught behind! Trying to guide to third and just feathers a catch to the keeper. Back of a length wide of off, she just tries to run it off the face rather than throw the hands through a cut shot and gets a thin nick. Big scalp for Alleyne 31/211.4 taken at mid-off! Good catch. McGrath used her feet, drove in the air and Taylor moves well to her right to take this nicely. Wasn't quite out of the middle, but still travelling 111/314.2 taken, another sharp catch! Perry looking to loft down the ground, gets a thick outside which loops towards short third, Connell might have seen it late but dives forward to grab it inches off the turf. Well, they are checking this on the TV. Third umpire rules the fingers stayed under the ball throughout 129/513.3 top edge, taken! Gardner falls cheaply again. The short ball works. Gardner went for the pull, got a top edge and it dropped straight to deep square leg 121/419.5 taken at deep midwicket...was in the slot at the stumps, was a meaty swing from Litchfield but didn't quite get enough of it 190/818.3 round the wicket, swings across the line of a length delivery and is cleaned up. First T20I wicket for James 178/618.4 is Wareham run out? Yes, she is. These was all very casual. Driven to long off and she was almost strolling back for the second and the dive doesn't save her 182/719.6 taken at long-on as Schutt lofts down the ground and can't get the distance. That's a great final over for West Indies 190/9Extras4 (nb 1, w 3)TOTAL190/9 (20 Overs, RR: 9.5)Did not bat: D BrownFall of wickets: 1-13 (Beth Mooney, 1.6 ov), 2-31 (Alyssa Healy, 4.1 ov), 3-111 (Tahlia McGrath, 11.4 ov), 4-121 (Ashleigh Gardner, 13.3 ov), 5-129 (Ellyse Perry, 14.2 ov), 6-178 (Annabel Sutherland, 18.3 ov), 7-182 (Georgia Wareham, 18.4 ov), 8-190 (Phoebe Litchfield, 19.5 ov), 9-190 (Megan Schutt, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.4 and now she's gone! Is that the moment? The magnificent Matthews goes, a slower ball outside off, trying to loft over the off side but can't get it over cover. A good piece of bowling from Brown 97/111.5 oh dear, that's a mess...she tried to get inventive, attempts a reverse scoop which loops towards short third. She races off for the single, Henry isn't interested 99/311.1 and now Taylor goes! West Indies wobbling. A full delivery, aims to go down the ground but can't clear mid-on 98/212.1 cleaned up! A length ball at the stumps, a bottom-handed swing across the line and she misses 103/412.4 and another! Short followed by full, a full toss in fact, and it's scooped comfortably to mid-on 104/519.5 given caught behind. She calls the review. Swinging at a full ball on off stump. There's a spike. That's that 143/1016.1 attempts a reverse scoop to a full ball outside off and can only offer a relatively simple catch to short third 122/616.5 driven straight to cover, full outside off, lofted without much timing and it's a simple catch 124/717.2 round the wicket, speared in very full, appeal for lbw. Was starting to sweep and was beaten for pace. Struck the back leg. Was there an edge first. Healy calls the review. If there's no bat, this is plumb. That is the out-est thing you'll see 125/817.4 lofted in the air down the ground, and that's a terrific catch by Sutherland running in from long-off. Did very well to get there, with a dive forward 126/9Extras5 (b 1, nb 1, w 3)TOTAL143 all out (19.5 Overs, RR: 7.21)Fall of wickets: 1-97 (Hayley Matthews, 10.4 ov), 2-98 (Stafanie Taylor, 11.1 ov), 3-99 (Shabika Gajnabi, 11.5 ov), 4-103 (Chinelle Henry, 12.1 ov), 5-104 (Shemaine Campbelle, 12.4 ov), 6-122 (Afy Fletcher, 16.1 ov), 7-124 (Rashada Williams, 16.5 ov), 8-125 (Zaida James, 17.2 ov), 9-126 (Karishma Ramharack, 17.4 ov), 10-143 (Aaliyah Alleyne, 19.5 ov)
