- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.1 Browne strikes this time! Not a great shot this from Villani , just slogging across the line from a good-length ball outside off stump, it looped gently to mid off where McGlashan made no mistake. Two down, Aussies in trouble again in Barbados! 14/22.2 Ruck strikes! Nitschke departs, excellent ball this, full and swinging away, Nitschke was trying to swish it away across the line, and was trapped on the front pad, looked stone dead 10/111.5 smacked in the air, Watkins is in the way in the covers, and that's a cool catch. Australia's innings can't get any momentum 50/45.2 Browne has caused some real trouble and strikes again! Top catch at point! A touch wide, cut firmly, but Devine flung herself to her right and pulled off an excellent catch. Australia in all kinds of woe today! 20/312.1 got'er! A long-hop on off stump, Cameron swings loosely across the line, and the ball trims the bails. She was onto the shot far too early 51/515.1 dropped!, but it doesn't matter in the end, as the misfield convinced them to try and take a second run that was never there. The ball had been chipped high out to square leg, McGlashan fluffed the chance but zipped a return throw in very quickly to catch Healy short. And another Aussie wicket goes down! 72/618.5 No mistake this time! Sthalekar moved right across her stumps again, hoping to paddle the ball past fine leg one presumes, but she left all three stumps exposed and Devine fired in a yorker, full, fast and straight. Clatter! 99/719.6 brilliant catch from the New Zealand captain! The ball was full, Farrell tried to smash it over the covers but Watkins timed her leap to perfection to pluck the ball out of thin air as it sailed over her. 106/8Extras13 (lb 1, nb 1, w 11)TOTAL106/8 (20 Overs, RR: 5.3)Fall of wickets: 1-10 (Shelley Nitschke, 2.2 ov), 2-14 (Elyse Villani, 3.1 ov), 3-20 (Alex Blackwell, 5.2 ov), 4-50 (Leah Poulton, 11.5 ov), 5-51 (Jess Duffin, 12.1 ov), 6-72 (Alyssa Healy, 15.1 ov), 7-99 (Lisa Sthalekar, 18.5 ov), 8-106 (Rene Farrell, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.5 Perry strikes! Terrible shot from Bates, it was a good ball on off stump and Bates swished wildly across the line, comes off the top edge and loops gently to mid off. New Zealand in trouble here 24/33.1 gone this time! Watkins swats a back-of-a-length delivery straight to short midwicket. Australia really needed that 16/14.3 big wicket this! McGlashan goes! It was worked away but the fielder swooped in and throw beat McGlashan after an awful mix-up with Bates calling and then sending her back 19/27.3 back of a length, keeps low, out goes the off stump, and Satterthwaite takes the long walk! She should have come forward, but was trapped in the crease, and now New Zealand really are in strife 29/410.6 an optimistic mow, a spiralling top-edge, the captain calls at cover, and New Zealand slip deeper into the mire 36/517.5 gone! Back of a length, wobbling away a touch through the air and off the pitch to take a thin edge off Browne's flashing blade. Healy makes no mistake, and New Zealand are just about buried now 77/6Extras11 (lb 3, w 8)TOTAL103/6 (20 Overs, RR: 5.15)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Aimee Watkins, 3.1 ov), 2-19 (Sara McGlashan, 4.3 ov), 3-24 (Suzie Bates, 5.5 ov), 4-29 (Amy Satterthwaite, 7.3 ov), 5-36 (Rachel Priest, 10.6 ov), 6-77 (Nicola Browne, 17.5 ov)
