    17.2 given lbw! Litchfield attempts another reverse sweep, misses, and is given. And she doesn't review. Early impact for Ecclestone. Full at middle and leg, switches around in her stance, aiming square through the off side. Her hard work comes to an end 92/2
    8.1 Edged and taken! Bell gets the crucial wicket of Healy! Full outside off, drawing Healy forward into the drive. The ball shapes away late and takes the outside edge and Jones gobbles it up behind the stumps. Healy was looking really dangerous here. Big breakthrough from Bell 43/1
    28.5 big appeal for lbw, looks close! And England review. This gripped from off stump, beats the inside edge, Perry clips the pad. Will be very close. Looks straight. Lots of marks on Snicko. Is there a small nick as well? Third umpire wants a lot of looks. Massive moment. Rules no edge. And it's hitting middle half way up 149/5
    23.5 an appeal for lbw as this grips and spins...they debate a review, and got for it. Height could be an issue. Certainly some sharp spin. Takes the back leg. This will be close. Three reds, hitting middle and leg! Great review from England 131/3
    26.6 taken at cover! Huge wicket. Tossed up a little wider by Capsey, Sutherland comes down the pitch, reaches out for a drive and it's a neat catch to Knight's right at a shortish cover 146/4
    30.2 cleaned up! Magnificent bowling. It's Capsey's day. Good length outside off, grips and turns through the gate left by Gardner. What a turnaround we've seen in this game. Loose shot from Gardner 150/6
    31.3 no problems with this one! Short of a length, nips back, beats the inside edge and takes the top of leg stump. This came back a long way. Terrific delivery. What a collapse from Australia 153/7
    39.5 Ecclestone with the breakthrough! King wants that catch to be checked. She's hanging on, waiting for the umpire to send it up. This was dropped short around off and King backed away to cut it hard, but it went straight at Wyatt-Hodge, who takes it low diving in front to her left. The check is a quick one, no doubt about it that the ball landed in the fielder's cupped hands 172/8

    44.3 And that's a wrap! Garth looks to swing down the ground and Bell gets this full delivery to slip through to crash into the stumps. So England need 181 to level things on the table! 180/10
    41.3 Ecclestone needs just two balls to get rid of the Australia No. 10 Pitches it on a length around off, Schutt swipes across the line and gets a top edge that Wyatt-Hodge swallows at point. Four for Ecclestone now! 174/9

    5.2 high in the air, taken at point! Garth strikes again. Looking to take a straight delivery over the leg side, swings to take the leading edge and Gardner steps backwards from point to take a simple chance 27/2
    1.6 big appeal for lbw, not given! And Healy goes for the review. Has she got outside the line? Or did Beaumont move after impact. Shapes back perfectly. This looks very straight! Three reds, near the top of middle. Garth strikes early. Very nice piece of bowling 8/1
    15.6 she's gone! Plays back, looks to turn this into the on side, gripped and bounced at Knight, loops off a leading edge and it's the simplest of catches for Gardner 68/3
    22.2 That's the big one! Alana King gets Nat Sciver-Brunt! It's tossed up very full and it drifts to follow NSB who was backing away. She tries to whip it leg side but the ball grips and spins to take a leading edge for a simple catch at cover 84/5
    16.6 One brings two! That's an absolute ripper! That's tossed up full and it drifts to pitch on leg, before spinning back out sharply to beat the outside edge comfortably and peg the off stump back. Wyatt-Hodge falls for a golden duck 73/4

    35.1 huge appeal, and given again! Almost a replay of the earlier one but don't think there's an edge this time. But there's a very late review. This looked very out. Struck low on the back leg as a full delivery squeezed through. Ouch, that's very out. 120/6
    38.1 oh goodness, what's she done there! Dean steps across the crease, tries to scoop a shorter delivery over the keeper, gets a top edge and Mooney comes around from slip. Why would you do that when King had six balls left? 125/7
    38.2 edged, caught behind! King has four. The Aussies goes wild. Was a touch short outside off, Ecclestone goes for the cut, it's a bottom edge and Healy has done brilliantly to hold that 125/8
    42.4 big full toss, but it's a run out! Chaos here. This might be a no-ball on height. Went for the scoop, ended up at short third, Filer raced up for the run, Jones sent her back. Superb work by Brown to cut it off then get the ball to Healy, who relayed it to Schutt at the non-striker's end 146/9

    48.1 cleaned up! It's all over. Schutt finishes it. What an extraordinary game of cricket. Gets this straight, Bell plays inside the line and middle is hit 159/10
