    2.2 In the air, and taken! Dunkley looks to go big down the ground, skipping out to a full delivery, but can only edge it up high in the air. Phoebe Litchfield runs back from cover and gets under it and does well to hold on to it. Gardner with the first strike for Australia! 6/1
    3.6 Gone! Beaumont tries to skip out to this full inswinger and swings wildly. Gets a thin inside edge onto the stumps and England are two down early 12/2
    31.3 King castles Knight! Knight skips out and has a swing and misses it completely as this length ball on middle crashes into the stumps! Big moment in the game. King is pumped! 159/3
    47.2 Jonassen has the last laugh as Sciver-Brunt holes out! Bowls it flat and fuller on middle and leg, Sciver-Brunt takes the routine route of the slog. Finds Gardner stationed at deep midwicket. She walks back to a standing ovation that is every bit deserving. Raises her bat and helmet as she does so 265/7
    36.6 Capsey picks out Sutherland at long-on. The pressure tells on England. Skips out but can't quite get to the pitch of this length ball outside off. Gets the height but not the distance and Sutherland comes in from the rope and takes a simple catch 178/4

    44.1 Gardner yorks Wyatt! Massive strike at this point. Spears in a quick on on middle and leg, Wyatt once again backs away to make room. Looks to adjust and squeeze it out but it is really too good for her. Gardner gives a stare back at Wyatt, whose injected a lot of momentum to this English innings. Taunton applauds as she walks back 244/5
    46.3 Nails the direct hit, does Brown! Makes her presence felt immediately. Tossed up full on middle and leg, Jones gets yorked up after she charges down and squeezes it towards cover-point. Wants to go back but spots Sciver-Brunt charging and goes for it. Brown gets to the ball from cover and strikes down the stumps at the bowler's end 258/6

    48.1 Fuller on middle and leg, Dean goes for the sweep. The ball lobs up, Healy catches it and they appeal, not given. Australia opt for the review - perhaps for the lbw than for the catch. Replays do show that Dean has not hit it but it has lobbed off her front boot. Three reds and Australia get what they wanted. 274/8
    49.6 Castled! Wily Jonassen picks up her third wicket. Tosses it up and drags the length back, anticipating Cross to give her the charge. She does so and completely misses her hack across the line and is bowled. England are kept to 285 for 9! 285/9

    2.1 Kate Cross goes through Healy's defence! Wobble-seam delivery outside off seams in sharply as Healy prods at it. Goes through the gap and hits the top of middle! England have sent both openers back early, like Australia had done earlier in the game 15/2
    1.5 Edged to first slip and Ecclestone holds on! Length ball pitches around off and straightens. Litchfield presses forward in defence and the ball takes the outside edge. Ecclestone takes it low with the ball dying on her 10/1
    21.5 Cross gets Perry! The bowling change pays immediate dividends as Perry goes to flick a full and straight delivery and gets a massive leading edge. The ball pops up and Alice Capsey takes a simple catch at point! 113/4
    13.3 Jones stumps McGrath! Ecclestone is on the board. She tosses it up just outside off, enticing TMac out of her crease to go inside out over cover. But as she yorks herself up and gets beaten on the inside edge. Jones swiftly whips off the bails to end the 53-run stand 68/3
    23.2 Straight to mid-off and Cross has a third! Another huge wicket for England. This is a length ball outside off, the ball stops a little on Mooney, who is trying to play a lofted drive and she can't get the elevation. Ecclestone takes it above her head 120/5
    27.6 On a length outside off, driven away off the back foot to sweeper cover. And wait, is there a run-out here? Gardner wanted a second and hesitated. And she's gone! She put in a dive at full stretch, but couldn't make it in as Cross collected the ball and took the bails off at the non-striker's end. Gardner was looking so dangerous, racing away to 41, but this wicket could be crucial! 166/6

    33.2 Bowled her! Sutherland dances out of the crease yet again, but has managed to york herself. Ball sneaks in under the bat and crashes into the stumps. England just two wickets away now! 192/8
    32.3 Stumping chance! Amy Jones looks confident and Wareham is walking off! Full outside off and just shaping away, Wareham presses forward into the drive and is beaten on the outside edge. Jones is lightning quick to take the bails off before Wareham can get her back foot in. Sciver-Brunt has given England yet another breakthrough! 190/7
    35.3 That is that! Australia have been vanquished in an ODI series for the first time in ten years! Tossed up slower through the air at 47mph/74kph outside off, Jonassen looks to go for the big shot across the line. Ends up slicing it in the air off the outer half. Bell at short third settles under it to get the celebrations going 199/10
    34.3 Digs it in on a length at 63mph/102kph, King goes for the cross-batted heave but only top-edges it. Jones only has to run back a couple of steps to pouch that. England one wicket away... 194/9
