- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.5 back of a length outside off, draws Punam forward for the drive, who ends up punching it on the up straight to the short-cover fielder. It's Chamari Atapattu who snaffles the low catch. 38/25.1 pitched outside leg, but it turns into the left-handed Mandhana who brings out the on drive There's short midwicket in place and she snaffles the catch with both hands while tumbling to her right 21/136.5 lofts it straighter down this time. Length ball again on middle, but ends up holing out to mid-off 156/339.2 darts this full on middle, it cops Raj on her front pad. Looks pretty plumb, Ranaweera appeals vociferously and it's given by the umpire! Raj doesn't review it. 169/539.1 lofts this length ball towards deep midwicket. The fielder rushes in, settles underneath it, and snaffles it safely. Chamari Atapattu doesn't drop many! 169/448.2 Harmanpreet comes down the track and lofts this one on off towards long-off. This time, the fielder holds on to the catch and Harmanpreet has to depart. The change of gloves surely didn't work there. 219/648.3 and it's two in two! Veda slices this back of a length ball straight to the point fielder, who gets down on one knee and completes the catch. 219/749.5 full ball on leg, flicked towards midwicket again. The first run is completed with ease but Mansi wants a second. She hares towards the non-striker's end but falls short of her ground as the fielder perfects the direct hit while throwing the ball on the dive 230/8Extras6 (b 1, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL232/8 (50 Overs, RR: 4.64)Did not bat: Poonam YadavFall of wickets: 1-21 (Smriti Mandhana, 5.1 ov), 2-38 (Punam Raut, 10.5 ov), 3-156 (Deepti Sharma, 36.5 ov), 4-169 (Jhulan Goswami, 39.1 ov), 5-169 (Mithali Raj, 39.2 ov), 6-219 (Harmanpreet Kaur, 48.2 ov), 7-219 (Veda Krishnamurthy, 48.3 ov), 8-230 (Mansi Joshi, 49.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR23.3 more flight outside off stump, the batsman gets down on one knee while trying to sweep this one, she misses and realises she's come out of her crease. Sushma Verma takes the bails off quickly as Hansika struggles to drag her front foot back in time 70/34.3 almost another drop (are they contagious?), but it's not as Mandhana juggles at mid on to hold on to that. Perera heaved across the line for that length delivery and didn't middle it, lobbing a straightforward catch to mid on's left. Mandhana sticks her tongue with a cheeky smile after that 17/117.4 oh that's kept low and it's hit the off stump, that's a big wicket. It wasn't the lack of bounce though that got her, there was plenty of flight around off stump, she went for the sweep with the turn and played the wrong line a little early, and the ball moved slowly after bounce to nudge off stump 57/239 a wicket comes finally for Goswami but she's hardly celebrating. Siriwardene tried to clear the boundary down the ground but didn't get enough distance, and Veda Krishnamurthy did very well to run forward from long on and pouch it with both hands 130/447.1 stumped this time, beaten in the air and by the turn, a valiant innings from Manodara. She danced down to swing big and hard but the ball spun in sharply from well outside off, going past the inside edge and Sushma collected and took the bails quickly 191/740.4 a run out chance again, not a direct hit again but Harmanpreet seems to have taken the bails off quickly and in time. The short and wide delivery was slapped off the back foot to extra cover and the fielder there put in a good and flat throw to catch Kanchana short, who was sent back by Manodara 143/544.1 charges down and slams it straight into the safe hands of Veda Krishnamurthy at cover. There was a bit of flight around off, she took a step down and middled it but found the fielder who grabbed it around head height with both hands 171/6Extras5 (lb 4, w 1)TOTAL216/7 (50 Overs, RR: 4.32)Fall of wickets: 1-17 (Hasini Perera, 4.3 ov), 2-57 (Chamari Athapaththu, 17.4 ov), 3-70 (Nipuni Hansika, 23.3 ov), 4-130 (Shashikala Siriwardene, 38.6 ov), 5-143 (Ama Kanchana, 40.4 ov), 6-171 (Sripali Weerakkody, 44.1 ov), 7-191 (Dilani Manodara, 47.1 ov)
