Amelia Kerr to Perry, no run

good length on off, legbreak, Perry goes back and defends

Devine to Perry, 1 run

deep midwicket is very straight and just as well for New Zealand. Full on the pads, flicked nicely and it takes a tumbling effort in the deep to cut it off

dragged down short on off, Mooney makes room and punches to sweeper cover

Amelia Kerr to Mooney, no run

overpitched on off, driven to mid-off

Amelia Kerr to Phoebe Litchfield, out Bowled!! Talk about making an impact straightaway. Amelia Kerr takes out the off stump and brings an end to Litchfield's quickfire knock. Googly from over the wicket

pitches on a good length and turns away. Litchfield doesn't pick it. She's opened up on the forward defence, gets beaten on the edge and loses the woodwork. Much needed wicket in the face of an opening onslaught.

Devine to Phoebe Litchfield, 1 run

full outside off, driven through extra cover and it's cut off in the deep

Devine to Phoebe Litchfield, SIX

Devine to Perry, no run

good length in the channel, kicks up and presents a challenge for the keeper who is standing up to the stumps. There's a fumble but it's not costly as it deflects to short third. May have even be surprised by Perry deciding to leave

Bree Illing to Phoebe Litchfield, no run

back of a length delivery close to off, Litchfield drags it off an inside edge onto pad as she pokes tentatively. Hasn't looked comfortable against that length

Devine to Phoebe Litchfield, 1 run

the timing on this is sublime but she's denied by a diving effort at mid-off. Full delivery swinging in on middle and leg, Litchfield offers the full face as she drives down the ground but has to settle for the single

back of a length in the channel, punched to deep point

Devine to Perry, no run

full at the stumps, driven to mid-on

nearly chopped on! Back of a length just outside off, looks to cut, doesn't have the room to work with and drags it off the under-edge into the pitch. It bounces over the stumps to the keeper

Bree Illing to Phoebe Litchfield, no run

length is pulled back and immediately Litchfield looks a bit uncomfortable. Back of a length just outside off, pokes at it from the crease and is beaten

Bree Illing to Phoebe Litchfield, SIX

Litchfield is off to a flier here! Gives the charge, it's full and swinging away outside off and she hits it beautifully over extra cover. Went with the swing and got a good piece of it

Jess Kerr to Phoebe Litchfield, no run

back of a length delivery, blocked from the crease

Bree Illing to Healy, out Caught by Bates!! Big moment for Illing as she picks up her first World Cup wicket. And it's that of the Aussie captain who swings the bat in frustration before walking off. The ball was there for her to put away

the width was there, but she struck it straight to the fielder. Full delivery angling away, she gives the charge, goes hard on the drive but it goes to Bates at cover. No mistake made by the veteran and the White Ferns are a delighted bunch.

Bree Illing to Healy, no run

in the blockhole on off, squeezed out to point

Bree Illing to Healy, no run

she's consistently at the stumps to Healy. The one time some room was given in the previous over, it went for four. Good length on middle, defended forward

Bree Illing to Healy, 1 run

clipped offt he pas through midwicket

Bree Illing to Healy, FOUR

look at that race away from the chasing fielder. It's only a steer from Healy and it still hurries across the outfield. Back of a length delivery angling across off, doesn't have the field for that line and Healy guides it through cover-point. No chance for the fielder on this outfield

Bree Illing to Healy, no run

good length on middle, defended to short extra

Bree Illing to Healy, no run

again very straight to Healy. Back of a length on leg, no room given, Healy looks to clip it away but gets an inside edge onto pad

Jess Kerr to Phoebe Litchfield, no run

full delivery just outside off, driven to cover

the timing is lovely and the outfield is like a TT table. Absolutely races away. Full ball angling away from off, Litchfield shimmies down, doesn't go too hard on the drive and merely caresses it through extra cover

Jess Kerr to Healy, 1 run

inswinging yorker just outside off, Healy squeezes it into the point region

Bree Illing to Healy, 1 run

angling across off, back of a length, Healy opens the face and steers it to the right of short third

shimmies down the pitch does Litchfield. It's back of a length in the channel and she taps it through the covers

Molineux to Bree Illing, out Caught by Healy!! Review taken by Illing after being given out caught-behind! Tossed up on leg

she looks to drive but is beaten by the turn. Was there an inside edge on the way to the keeper? Healy was confident and the umpire raised her finger too. UltraEdge vindicates the onfield call and that's the end of that.

Molineux to Lea Tahuhu, 1 run

fired in very full at the stumps, squeezed down to long-on

Sutherland to Bree Illing, no run

good length delivery just outside off, punched from the crease to mid-on

Sutherland to Bree Illing, no run

oh almost a hat-trick! Came round the wicket for this short of length delivery, Illing missed it completely and it almost shaved the off stump. Healy throws her head back in disbelief

Sutherland to Eden Carson, out Lbw!! That's plumb in front and given immediately but Carson reviews just to chance her arm. "I can see a gap between bat and ball" is the initial feeling from the third ump. No bat

confirmed by UltraEdge and ball-tracker says that's hitting nothing but middle of middle stump. Length delivery on the stumps, Carson was so late on the defence. Impact was in line with middle and no one had doubts about this. Sutherland has killed the game in these three balls but ? B2$

Sutherland to Jess Kerr, out Bowled!! Oh she totally missed this. Maybe expected the slower ball but this one came quick and may have moved away too. It's hitting middle and off this time. Wanted to flick across the line and missed this ball completely as she was late.

Sutherland to Lea Tahuhu, leg byes

1 run, oh the pad and rolling away for a run

Sutherland to Devine, out Bowled!! Knocked her over. Lovely slower delivery that Devine didn't read. Was through with her slog way too early and the ball slowly passed her to hit top of middle stump. Is that the end of New Zealand's hopes tonight? Devine on her haunches in disappointment. Healy immediately pats her on the back for her wonderful effort. Devine gets a standing ovation as she walks off. Champion effort as a leader

shame she couldn't carry on with more support.

Gardner to Devine, SIX

full toss, smacks it over mid-wicket and that's her Takes the helmet off and raises the bat to all the applause. Gets a hug from her batting partner. Stepped out and just smashed this out of sight.

beaten again and this time it keeps so low to force Devine into saying "what the ****." She then smiles at her partner because she could do nothing about the lack of bounce. Healy smiles as well. Short of a length delivery just outside off stump, Devine was ready to cut but the ball just didn't rise and she is again lucky this wasn't on the stumps

Darcie Brown to Devine, no run

oh almost took out the leg stump! Devine got cut in half there by this nip-backer, so lucky this didn't hit the stumps

Sutherland to Isabella Gaze, no run

short of length delivery, Gaze keeps it out

Sutherland to Green, out Green Run Out!! Oh yes-no and a big communication error. Green thought the run was on when she flicked this short of length delivery to the on-side. Devine was hesitant because she could sense Brown cutting it off with the dive. That is exactly what happened so Devine didn't want to risk it. Green was already near halfway down the pitch and had no time to reverse home in time. Throw came to Healy

who effected an easy runout. The second runout in this innings.

Kim Garth to Devine, no run

driven back to the bowler

Kim Garth to Devine, FOUR

oh shot! Full and outside off stump, Devine leans forward and smacks it to the left of mid-off to start the over on a great note

Alana King to Halliday, out Caught by Phoebe Litchfield!! In the airrr

it's flat and taken. Alana King roars in delight as she wins this contest. Full credit to her for not bothering about the six and four. Backed herself and still teased this in the slot. Halliday wanted to go big again. Had the front leg away to access the leg-side but she dragged the slog squarer than intended and hit it straight to deep mid-wicket.

Alana King to Halliday, FOUR

it's short from Alana King this time and Halliday pulls along the ground to send it to the right of deep square leg. She is playing the matchup card with the ball turning into her by targetting the leg-side

fullish delivery, Halliday tries the reverse and picks out point again

Molineux to Devine, 1 run

oh looks to cut this shortish delivery and misses

Alana King to Amelia Kerr, out Caught by Phoebe Litchfield!! Alana King

you absolute gold! Gee, if you didn't take your eyes off this battle you would have just had a great treat. Alana King didn't leave the stumps to Kerr, asking questions every ball. Kerr tried stepping out, cutting, driving but she just couldn't get going. Forget about going, she couldn't even rotate. Now the bowler floats a full delivery and Kerr tries to loft-drive, only ends up picking out the fielder at cover to perfection. From being dominant in a small phase, to being put in a shell and now eventually being trapped. What a contest this was between King and Kerr.

Gardner to Devine, no run

oh short and down leg, Devine fancied a pull shot over backward square leg but the ball didn't come on and she was through her shot before it arrived. Ball then hit the left thigh pad. Actually there was an inside edge onto thigh pad

oh first real short ball or anything that the batter could free the arms about. Cut hard but still only one as deep cover cuts it off

can't get this away in the gap

Sutherland to Devine, FOUR

that's a get out of my sight shot from the captain! Overpitched outside off stump, oh I am going to smash you says Devine and plays the cover drive. Sweeper didn't have to move much but there was too much power on the shot and it negated her easily

short of length now and worked away through backward square leg

Darcie Brown to Amelia Kerr, FOUR

Darcie Brown to Amelia Kerr, FOUR

crunchy through cover! Darcie Brown is trying her best to mix the lengths. Yorker, then bumper, now back to drawing the batter on the front foot but Kerr is nice and ready for everything. Creamed this in the gap to make a statement. New Zealand need more of this to stay in the hunt

Darcie Brown to Amelia Kerr, FOUR

the yorker followed up by a short ball and Kerr is ready for it. This is a lovely mini battle between the batter and the bowler in this contest. Lovely swivel pull and she got it wide of mid-wicket

Darcie Brown to Amelia Kerr, no run

excellent yorker on the off stump, Kerr just about manages to dig it out in time

Darcie Brown to Amelia Kerr, no run

nips back in from short of length and pins the thigh pad but it was too high and missing leg

Darcie Brown to Amelia Kerr, FOUR

now she has no problems in connecting with this cut shot. This time the ball sat up nicely as the batter anticipated. Kerr rocked back, waited, eyes lit up on seeing the true bounce and she cut it past backward point. Maybe in grounds that don't have practice pitches at third man the fielder could have chanced cutting it off but it just sped past her here

Darcie Brown to Amelia Kerr, no run

oh tries to cut and misses! Didn't bounce as much as Kerr wanted, she tried to adjust to the lowish bounce and time the ball but didn't connect

Kim Garth to Amelia Kerr, 1 run

good length ball in the channel, Kerr gets forward and taps it through point

Molineux to Bates, out Bowled!! Dragged on! Disastrous start for New Zealand who are two down without a run on the board. Tossed up outside off

slow through the air and lures Bates into the drive. She's not to the pitch though. Ends up reaching for it and drags it off the inside edge onto the stumps. Played for turn that wasn't there.

Molineux to Bates, no run

tossed up just outside off, pushed to short cover

Molineux to Bates, no run

poor review! Always looked like missing leg. A length ball that slides on with the arm from round the wicket, goes past the inside edge and hits the pad. The appeal is turned down and the review is wasted

Kim Garth to Bates, out Plimmer Run Out!! Oh Plimmer is struggling and she's probably gone! Australia are celebrating. The replay is in and yes

she is well short of her ground. Not the start the White Ferns were looking for at all. After five dots, Bates advances and pushes this to mid-on. She's itching to get off the mark, takes the risk of going for a tight single and is not in much danger because of having a headstart already. Plimmer, though, takes off a little late and she's found wanting by some quick work by Sutherland. She fires it to the keeper who does the rest.
