- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR13.2 Deepti removes Harris! Her WPL team-mate. Short of a length delivery outside off, Harris goes back and pulls this away, not much power on this shot as she finds Mandhana at short mid-on 92/42.4 Did it carry? Mooney walks, India celebrate! It is the late call-up allrounder Radha Yadav with a fielding brilliance again. Renuka angles it away on a length, Mooney hangs back and slaps it uppishly towards backward point, where Radha dives forward and grabs it inches above the turf. She was perhaps a tad unsure but Mooney was, and the smiles on India's faces say it all. Early strike, big strike 17/12.5 And Renuka is on a hat-trick! Wareham was walking off straight off but Harris has a chat and asks her if she wants to review. She does not and India have their second wicket. The experienced RCBian gets the one-season old RCBian. Angling in on a length from slightly wide of the crease, she looks to flick it away but misses and is hit on the pad. Renuka celebrappeals, Sue Redfern has a good, hard think and raises her finger. Wareham perhaps knew she was a dead duck. Hawk-Eye has it sliding down leg, a review would have saved Wareham! 17/211.5 Radha gets the breakthrough! Harmanpreet is delighted. Full length ball and pitched wide of off, McGrath charges down again to go big, misses the ball and Ghosh is quick to take the bails off 79/318.3 Perry departs! A really good catch from Sajana. Short of a length delivery on off and middle stump, Perry on the backfoot looks to go over deep midwicket but hits straight to Sajana, who feels the impact of the catch 134/614.6 Vastrakar's short-ball approach works! She drags the length back and Gardner falls for it. She reacts to the ball but hitting this high towards cover where Radha completes the catch. Tries to hit straight but it comes off the leading edge 101/519.4 Patil has a wicket! Mandhana had a chat just before this ball and seems like it worked. Patil bowls this on a good length into the pitch, Sutherland comes down the track to go over cover again, misses, and it disturbs her stumps 145/719.5 Confusion and India have a wicket. Molineux thinks she is out after hitting this straight to Rodrigues at backward point. BUt the fielder dives in and fumbles. Rodrigues quickly throws the ball at non-striker's end to effect a run out 145/8Extras14 (b 1, lb 6, w 7)TOTAL151/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.55)Did not bat: D BrownFall of wickets: 1-17 (Beth Mooney, 2.4 ov), 2-17 (Georgia Wareham, 2.5 ov), 3-79 (Tahlia McGrath, 11.5 ov), 4-92 (Grace Harris, 13.2 ov), 5-101 (Ashleigh Gardner, 14.6 ov), 6-134 (Ellyse Perry, 18.3 ov), 7-145 (Annabel Sutherland, 19.4 ov), 8-145 (Sophie Molineux, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.3 Picks the fielder out perfectly! Gardner gets Shafali for the fifth time in T20Is. Tosses it up again and asks her to go big. She does so and finds Sutherland at long-on. Gardner gets Shafali for the fifth time in T20Is 26/15.1 Another lbw appeal, and Australia take it up again! Looks quite close... Lands it on a length on off and middle, Mandhana goes back to heave it across the line and is hit on the back thigh. Looks adjacent and Ball-Tracking confirms it. India lose their openers and are in trouble now 39/26.5 Nailed the pull... straight to Gardner! Australia rejoice and the on-song Rodrigues departs. Another short ball, she takes on the pull again, doing so aerially towards deep midwicket. Gardner had to take a few steps forward to her right and takes it nice and low 47/315.5 Molineux gets the breakthrough! Fuller on off stump, pace off, Deepti steps out to smash this towards leg side but it's not hit cleanly. Wareham at deep midwicket completes the catch, Australia are delighted 110/416.2 Gone by some distance! That's a huge wicket. Full length delivery outside off, knocks down to short cover for a quick single but Litchfield is quick to fire in a direct hit at non-striker's end 111/519.2 Gone! A dot ball and a wicket. Sutherland attempts a yorker but it comes as a full toss. Vastrakar moves across first and then backs away but ends up missing it completely to hit the stumps 139/619.3 Reddy is also gone! Full length delivery on leg, back away to find the gap in the cover region but is little late to run. Litchfield throws to Sutherland and she effects a run out. But Harmanpreet gets on strike 139/719.4 More drama. Full and down the leg, she comes down the track to hit and lets it go. Wide signalled. But Harmanpreet wanted a run. Miscommunication there. Mooney quickly whips the bail off. Replays confirm Shreyanka's right foot is just not behind the line. Very close. And she departs too 141/819.5 Top stuff from Sutherland! Full length delivery on off, angling in, she moves away a bit to hit towards off side, misses, gets hit on back pad. Harmanpreet reviews. Looks plumb.
