    Linsey Smith to Shabnim Ismail, 1 run

    home is where the heart is, and home is where the fire burns brightest for Nat Sciver-Brunt and England. Never before have they failed to win a home World Cup, and they're now just one step away. Plenty of hugs in the dugout as they wrap up a comprehensive win to book their place in the final. Flat on leg, tucked away through square leg

    Linsey Smith to Nadine de Klerk, 1 run

    lofted down the ground, falls short of long-off. Smith not happy that the fielder didn't go for the catch

    Linsey Smith to Nadine de Klerk, no run

    short on off, keeps a bit low as de Klerk looks to cut, gets a thick under-edge in front of short fine

    flat and short on middle, clipped through midwicket

    Linsey Smith to Nadine de Klerk, 1 run

    goes for the slog-sweep, miscues it in the air and it falls short of deep midwicket

    Linsey Smith to Nadine de Klerk, 2 runs

    cramped for room as this slides in with the arm on leg stump. Somehow she still has managed to cut it through the gap at point. Fielder chases it down and they're back for two

    Lauren Bell to Ayabonga Khaka, out Bowled!!

    123/8

    Ayabonga Khaka 4(3) 1 0 · out

    Big swing misses and loses her stumps! Crowd is having a party in the stands as England get another. One more dipping slower ball from Bell, and Khaka connects thin air while looking to slog. Bell finishes with 2/28. Ayabonga Khaka b Lauren Bell 4(3) [4s-1]

    Lauren Bell to Ayabonga Khaka, FOUR

    taken by complete surprise by this short ball. She's in no position for the pull, very late on it and somehow it flies off a thick edge over short third

    Lauren Bell to Ayabonga Khaka, no run

    slower one floated up at the stumps, she looks to whip it away and gets a thick inside edge onto pad

    Lauren Bell to Sinalo Jafta, out Sinalo Jafta Run Out!!

    119/7

    Sinalo Jafta 1(4) · out

    Direct hit and gone! Jafta nowhere in the frame. It's sliced off the outside half to backward point she looks for a single, gets sent back but is a long way short as Wyatt-Hodge hits the bulls-eye. Sinalo Jafta run out (Danni Wyatt-Hodge) 1(4)

    Lauren Bell to Sinalo Jafta, no run

    another slower one, it's a leg-cutter that grips and turns, beats the outside edge to the keeper

    Lauren Bell to Sinalo Jafta, no run

    slower ball wide of off, Jafta gives away the scoop very early, has to wait and misses

    Sophie Ecclestone to Chloe Tryon, out Bowled!!

    118/6

    Chloe Tryon 12(11) 2 0 · out

    England nearly there! Nicely floated on a good length Tryon makes room, tries flat-batting hard but it sneaks under the bat to knock over the leg bail. Chloe Tryon b Sophie Ecclestone 12(11) [4s-2]

    Sophie Ecclestone to Nadine de Klerk, 1 run

    cramps her up, drifting into the pads, de Klerk clips it through square leg

    Sophie Ecclestone to Nadine de Klerk, no run

    fails to find the gap this time, both batters are stranded in the middle of the pitch, and the throw is a horrible one! Kemp had all the time in the world after stopping this at cover but panicked and threw it well wide of the keeper
