- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.4 pitched up, 120kph/75mph, Jones clips off her front pad... but picks out midwicket! Well taken plunging forward by Bolton and Australia have the breakthrough! Jones looking to be positive, using Perry's pace to her advantage - but if anything she got too good a connection that 5/139.2 she's dragged on! She tried the reverse sweep, that ball was perhaps a little fuller than she expected and she knocks the ball onto her stumps. She gets handshakes and pats of the back from her opponents as she walks off. 187/615.3 big shot from Knight, but that's a big miscue... taken at mid-off! She sauntered down and was aiming over the top, but got underneath it, sending the ball spiralling up into the blue sky to be safely taken on the edge of the ring. End of a stodgy innings from Knight 70/223.4 big shout there, back of a length, it doesn't bounce high, she takes a swing but it strikes her on the back leg! Kimmince has the breakthrough 109/330.1 full and in line, she goes the sweep but lofts it and the ball sails straight to Ashleigh Gardner at deep mid wicket 140/438.1 short and outside off, she slashes at it, gets an edge and is caught behind by Alyssa Healy! 183/545.2 simple stumping! Beaten in the flight and Healy whips off the bails! Brunt advancing again but Kimmince pushed the ball wide and slipped it past a wild swing of the bat, England now seven down 211/745.5 another one goes, hoicked high but safely pouched at mid-on! Back on the stumps and heaving to leg but Shrubsole got under it and was never in danger of threatening the rope; third wicket of the day for the miserly Kimmince 212/847.4 slogged to point, FIVE-FOR for Kimmince! Was that wise from Ecclestone? There were still a couple of overs to go, and Kimmince had been giving nothing away - but now she has the ball, holding it up to the crowd as Australia walk off having bowled England out for 217 217/1047.3 slapped down the ground, in the air again... comfortably taken! Marsh picks the wrong ball to try and take to the cleaners and finds herself all washed up, fourth wicket for Kimmince and England continue to fade 217/9Extras4 (lb 2, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL217 all out (47.4 Overs, RR: 4.55)Fall of wickets: 1-5 (Amy Jones, 1.4 ov), 2-70 (Heather Knight, 15.3 ov), 3-109 (Nat Sciver-Brunt, 23.4 ov), 4-140 (Fran Wilson, 30.1 ov), 5-183 (Danni Wyatt-Hodge, 38.1 ov), 6-187 (Tammy Beaumont, 39.2 ov), 7-211 (Katherine Sciver-Brunt, 45.2 ov), 8-212 (Anya Shrubsole, 45.5 ov), 9-217 (Laura Marsh, 47.3 ov), 10-217 (Sophie Ecclestone, 47.4 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.4 full and wide, she chips to Dani Wyatt, who just had to bend down at backward point for another valuable dismissal, taken at knee height 17/21.4 early breakthrough for England! Bolton flashes at a wide one and gets a thick outside edge, caught behind 11/113 that was a beauty! Slower ball from Brunt, bowled her through the gate and it takes out the top of off stump. 59/331.3 wide half-tracker from Shrubsole, Perry stretches for it - and toe-ends an edge to the keeper! What a way to go, she was playing so well but has managed to nick one that was almost off the cut strip! Shrubsole grins/grimaces in celebration, Perry hangs her head and walks as the finger goes up... What's the saying, substandard deliveries get wickets? 136/526.1 tossed up, chipped back down the pitch - grabbed by Marsh in her follow through! Massive breakthrough for England, with Haynes looking particularly fluent during that stand with Perry! She had come down the track to good effect before but was just beaten in the flight, didn't quite middle the shot 112/435.4 bowled 'er! Top of off and Gardner's a goner! Shrubsole gets her woman, taking the catcher out of the equation with one that arrowed in on the woodwork, maybe a little cutter - Gardner was driving but she heard the crash of ash behind her, and has to go 158/6Extras11 (lb 2, w 9)TOTAL218/6 (45.2 Overs, RR: 4.8)Fall of wickets: 1-11 (Nicole Bolton, 1.4 ov), 2-17 (Alyssa Healy, 2.4 ov), 3-59 (Meg Lanning, 12.6 ov), 4-112 (Rachael Haynes, 26.1 ov), 5-136 (Ellyse Perry, 31.3 ov), 6-158 (Ashleigh Gardner, 35.4 ov)
