    0.6 skewed up, and Aimee Maguire has the last laugh! There was only ever going to be one way that Joseph was going to play. Full on off. Joseph eyes the sweep again but is done in by the loop and the extra bounce. Off the top edge and Paul makes no mistake at short fine leg. WI rocked early! 8/1
    8.1 straight to square leg, and the skipper perishes too now! Matthews is disappointed as she walks off. Given plenty of loop on a length outside off. Matthews gets down on the sweep but does not roll her wrists. Does not get under it either and she could not have picked out Stokell better even if she tried. Ireland in control now! 50/3
    2.4 goes straight up, and Campbelle is outta here too! The star from their opening-game win will not have a huge impact with the bat in WI's final group game. Fullish on the pads. Campbelle tries to work to leg but the ball sticks in the surface to pop up off the leading edge. Hunter turns around, takes a couple of steps and with the gloves on, does the rest. WI in some early bother! 27/2
    12.4 oh dear - Taylor hits a full toss down long on's throat! Looped up outside off. Taylor skips down the track, makes it into a full toss and then swings for the hills. Does not get a hold of it at all and she shanks it to Prendergast. WI now four down, and in more than a spot of bother! 72/4
    15.5 oh, Deandra Dottin - what have you done?! Ireland are making a habit of this! Another buffet ball. A gentle wide full toss and Dottin could have hit this anywhere. Instead, she loses her shape upon contact, with the bat face also closing. Simple chip to mid off, and Dottin cannot quite believe what has happened. Those watching cannot either. But hang on, Dottin might get a reprieve because this is close to being a No ball on height. Not close enough, it seems, and Dottin has to go! 95/5

    16.6 gone this time! Slower, fuller and wider outside off, meaning Claxton has to fetch it. She gets herself into a muddle by not quite getting to the pitch of the ball either - perhaps beaten by the dip and the flight. Slices it and Kelly, running back from extra cover, does enough to hold on, despite a little bobble! 101/6
    19.3 another high ball, and taken! Banged in short outside off. Glasgow jumps up onto her toes and has a swat at it. Would not have been out of place at Wimbledon but because she is in no shape to play the stroke, she cannot generate enough power. Regulation chance for sweeper cover, and WI lose their seventh! 121/7

    12.6 miscued, and snaffled up superbly by Taylor! Given lots of air on a fullish length outside off. Dips on the batter late and then grips to spin away. Hunter looks to work it leg side but the turn means the ball lobs up off the leading edge. Taylor swoops in from point, lunges forward and sends Hunter on her way. Big wicket for WI, and perhaps a window of opportunity too! 88/2
    4.1 oh, what a grab, and Munisar has done the trick! Tossed up a touch on a length on middle and leg. Lewis charges down but does not get to the pitch of the ball. A bit of hold in the surface too and Lewis flicks it uppishly towards short mid wicket, where Matthews takes a sharp catch high to her left. Just the wicket WI would have wanted; just the batter Ireland would not have wanted to lose early! 26/1
    15.2 Prendergast bites the dust, and the door remains ajar for the West Indies! In the slot on leg stump and there to be hit. This time, though, Prendergast looks to hit into the wind, and that proves to be her downfall. Slightly half-hearted on the slog sweep too, and she arrows it to deep square leg, where Dottin bends forward and gobbles up the chance. Now then. Now then! 108/3

    16.4 catching practice for mid off, and WI are not going away! A really strange shot. Fullish outside off. Paul skips down but shows no conviction in going over the top. A bit of a check-shot in the end and the easiest of catches for Alleyne. Ireland now four down, and with work still to do! 117/4
