6.30pm: Celebration in the WI camp. India, however, have been eliminated from the tournament. Dottin held her nerve, defending nine off the final over while taking two wickets, and the fourth ball led to a run out. Veda flickered briefly upfront, but West Indies' bowlers choked the chase of 115 with a volley of dots in the middle. The victory, though, was set up by forties from Taylor and Dottin.
Mandhana gave India some hope, but tossed it away with an ill-advised late dab. Fletcher complemented Dottin well with two wickets.
Dottin, Player of the Match: It was a good moment. We had a low total.We are relieved with the result, and happy.
Taylor, WI captain: It reminded me of the last game against England. Quite tense. We are happy to pull it off. We know we have to put our best foot forward for the semis.
Raj, India captain: It is disappointing, three close games. In crucial moments, there have been slip-ups. The girls need to make on the metal make-up, and try to make things simple.
That's all we have for you from this match. The crowd is building nicely for the Australia-India knock-out clash. swing over and join George there. Ta, ta!
