    5.1 live by the sword, die by the sword! Hunter charges down to a tossed-up offbreak, wide outside the off stump. Decent connection from Hunter, but not quite enough power to clear the back-tracking Dunkley at deep midwicket. England have their breakthrough 35/1
    12.3 full and straight, top-edged sweep... pouched by Wyatt at deep backward square! She dropped Lewis in the powerplay, but gobbles up the chance in the 13th over. Running in, lowish catch to her left 80/3

    8.3 skips down, bowled by the gazunder! Keeps very low from a good length as she looks to swing Glenn back over her head, and it sneaks under the toe of the bat and into the off stump 56/2
    16.6 cleaned up! Ecclestone sees Delany coming and fires in a quick, straight yorker. Drifts in late, past the inside edge of the toe, and into the base of middle-and-off. Ecclestone simply too good 103/9
    12.4 full and straight, gets down to dink a fine sweep... but struck on the pad, and the finger goes up! Ecclestone leaps and punches the air. Two in two for her and for England, as Richardson gets a first-baller and marches off without even considering a review 80/4
    13.4 gone this time! Ecclestone is in the game again, and this time takes a brilliant low catch, diving to her left at mid-off. A touch wider and a touch shorter from Dean, as Little swings hard and looks to go again. Not much elevation this time, and pouched near the edge of the ring 89/5
    14.2 gets down to sweep, struck on the back thigh pad... given! Waldron should review with two left, and goes with a couple of seconds remaining. Some grip for the legbreak. No bat involved. Impact in-line, and just shaving the off stump. Decision upheld, and Waldron has to depart. 94/6
    14.4 knocks her over! You miss, I hit. Looks to drag her through midwicket, but no connection playing across the line and the ball crashes into middle-and-off 94/7
    15.1 brilliant catch from Knight at short extra! Back-of-the-hand slower ball, yorker length outside off stump. Kelly squeezes it out, getting some elevation on it, but slashes straight to Knight, who clings onto a sharp reaction catch 95/8

    0.5 fuller length, Dunkley yawns through the line... and holes out to mid-on! Struck it on the rise, with no power whatsoever... a soft dismissal to give Ireland early hope 4/1
    7.2 wide on the crease, chopped into the covers, and Wyatt is run out! Never a run there, Nat was sitting on her bat and rightly so, and she's not in the frame as the return comes into the keeper. Whoops. A mixed day at the office for Wyatt 74/3

    6.2 slower ball, hoisted down the ground, and that's a superb take! It's probably too little too late for ireland, but it's a welcome boost to their standards and morale, as she rushes in from the rope at long-off, flings herselt forward, and ends a wonderful knock from England's wonderkid 70/2
    9.1 lots of air, a big launch down the ground, but NSB gets right under the stroke, to hole out to long-off! Hunter in the deep is the gatherer, and that's due reward for some brave bowling, inviting the stroke and springing the trap! 81/4
    13.2 bowled off a leg-sided deflection! Due reward for Murray but a soft dismissal from Knight! Down on one knee, climbing into a sweep, but she was early through the stroke, as the ball kissed the under-side of her glove and bobbled into her stumps! England are making a very good impression of a mess of this. But Ireland are probably 20 runs light of real hope 98/5
    13.6 holes out in the covers! This is pretty chaotic from England, they've collectively lost their shape in this chase, with Jones the latest to over-hit a well-flighted delivery, and slice the leading edge high to the edge of the ring... 103/6
