    11.3 Oh, this is disastrous for India! Mandhana gives Rodrigues a tap of reassurance on her shoulder, but she has to go! Rodrigues is caught ball-watching after hitting a reverser-sweep to backward point, but Mandhana was more than halfway across the crease. By the time Rodrigues turns around and realises what's going on, it's too late and Mandhana is stranded as the throw goes to Wareham, who duly takes the bails off. There was no run on offer there, but it was the communications breakdown that cost India there! 83/2
    9.1 Knocked her over! Molineux strikes first ball and she is delighted. The shorter off side boundary played on Shafali's mind. Tossed up ball, full on off. She backs away to go inside out over covers. She slips, loses her balance and her off stump. End of a very good stand, Australia have got a key batter out 66/1
    18.6 Another drop, Nicola Carey the culprit this time. Full outside off and she launches it inside out, but it's going to long-off where Carey tries to take it low, but spills it 147/3
    19.5 Well, Perry doesn't drop sitters and that'll be the end of another Harmanpreet special against Australia! Backs away to this length ball and looks to scythe it through the off side. Goes flat to mid-off and it's taken 166/4

    0.2 Sharp jag-backer! Huge appeal not given. India are excited and take the review. Height the factor? Length ball outside off, Voll goes back to punch but is beaten on the inside and hit high on the back leg. Three reds on bal-tracking and India on the board on the second ball. Four and out for Voll, India on the ball 4/1
    9.1 Skewed high and Radha takes it safely! She looks skywards and screams in celebration, and we know why. Hasn't been the best of tournaments for Radha the fielder. This is tossed up on middle and leg from over the wicket. Mooney looks to slog it across the line over midwicket. Goes high up, Radha comes across from long-on, takes it with both hands and soaks it all in 68/3
    6.6 Huge cheers across Lord's as Litchfield finds long-off. Tossed up full outside, Litchfield delays her dance down the track. Smart thing to do but not if the ball doesn't hit the meat of the blade. Ends up skewing it to Mandhana in the deep, who makes no mistake. The leading wicket-taker of this T20 World Cup providing India the breakthrough 54/2
    18.4 Perry skies it and Shafali gets under it. Charani moves up to 14 wickets in the tournament, but this is too little, too late for India. Full outside off and Pez looks to go inside out, slicing it high in the air 168/4
