17.6 to RM Ghosh, straight back to Sciver and she holds on! Another cutter from Sciver, Ghosh drives it back on the up and Sciver gets both her hands over head while shutting her eyes and still manages to hold on. 125/4

8.5 to S Mandhana, dollied to cover, Davies breaks through! Full ball from round the wicket and Mandhana was trying to launch this over the top, skewed it high but not very far... and Mady Villiers scurried around from mid-off to complete the catch. 70/1
Sarah Glenn	3	0	32	1	10.66	6	3	2	0	0
15.4 to H Kaur, six and out, haven't you heard that before? Harmanpreet wanted more runs in the over and she charged down while making some room, probably expecting a change of line from the bowler, and she lofted the drive towards wide long-off where Brunt ran to her left and put in a forward dive to get both hands under that. 112/3
Mady Villiers	2	0	9	1	4.50	8	0	1	0	0
9.1 to Shafali Verma, Verma holes out! Villiers strikes first ball! Full and flighted, tempted the big shot to the leg side, again it went high - but Sciver was going to her right from long-on, and never looked like dropping it. Caught well in front of the rope, and England celebrate with gusto the big wicket of Verma. 72/2

1.6 to DN Wyatt, mistimed to mid-off! Wyatt departs cheaply, stretching for the shot, she flat-bats it straight to mid-off. Couldn't generate the power, possibly because she had to be mindful of staying in her crease, sent a straightforward catch to India's captain. That's an important early breakthrough. 13/1

16.5 to AE Jones, straight to square leg, the simplest of catches! Jones is the big wicket, she goes deep and across in the crease and pulls the slow delivery, at 58kph, straight into Sneh Rana's hands. 125/6 18.3 to KH Brunt, edged to the keeper, Poonam gets the reward! A bit of shuffling in the crease before Brunt swings and edges it behind, sharp catch by Richa Ghosh and India inch closer. 134/7
Deepti Sharma	4	0	18	1	4.50	9	0	0	2	0
13.4 to TT Beaumont, Beaumont misses again, another loud appeal and this time finger goes up but England review this time! The orthodox sweep this time, even though she came down the track, the ball pitches on off and middle, and goes on to clip the top of leg stump according to ball-tracking and the decision stays because it's "umpire's call". India finally have a breakthrough. 106/3
