1.17pm So India bowl Pakistan out off the last ball. It's an 18-overs-a-side contest, remember, so Pakistan did bat their full quota. Pakistan lost their last five wickets in eight deliveries. They'll definitely be disappointed, more so after the 50-run partnership for the second wicket between Muneeba (32) and Bismah (17). Aliya Riaz hung around for 18 with the lower-middle order, but she was run out late in the innings. That was one of three run-outs all innings. As for the India bowlers, everyone had a good day. Meghna did have an expensive spell, but she got the opening wicket that put Pakistan on the back foot early. Don't forget the maiden over from Renuka to start the innings either. The spinners all have an economy of less than 6, but Sneh Rana - playing her first CWG game - was the pick of the bowlers. Dismissed both Muneeba and Bismah and finished with an economy of 3.75.

When we return, Danyal Rasool will be back in the hot seat.

Joydeepsinghgil: "India should chase this target around 12-14 overs in order to boost their nrr "

Ashish: "Loving the confidence of umpiring here. First the stumping and now the run out and they gave it without referring to third umpire. Generally in mens cricket I have seen that even these decisions are referred to third umpire which just eats some time."

Mayank Sawhney: "A Good Day in the Field for India Bowlers and Fielders Today after a Highly Disappointing Display in their Match against Australia. "

Yadav to Kainat Imtiaz, OUT, 99 all out! Tosses it up, gives it proper air. Full on middle, and she comes down the ground for a slog. Ball goes under the bat, and the delivery crashes into off and middle stump. India need an even 100 to win

Kainat Imtiaz b Yadav 2 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 66.66

99 for 9. Can India keep Pakistan down to double digits?

Yadav to Kainat Imtiaz, 1 run, OUT, full outside off. She comes down the ground and drags a shot to wide long on. They come back for two, perhaps for the best since only one ball is left after this, but that means that Tuba is run out! Did the right thing trying to take the second, but the throw was next to the stumps, and Radha collects sharply before breaking the stumps. Umpire Kim doesn't bother going upstairs. Love the confidence!

Tuba Hassan run out 1 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 50.00

Yadav to Tuba Hassan, no run, fullish on off. Sharp turn away from her. Misses the attempted cut

Shubham: "Why last over is getting so late ?" Delay due to technical issues at the TV ump's. So we presume that no-balls would be called by the on-field ump + no DRS for this last over

Yadav to Diana Baig, OUT, We don't even need to go upstairs! Tosses it up, full on off. Takes pace off, and Diana comes down the track for a slog sweep. Misses, and she is out of her crease by a fair distance

Shripad: "Love Shafali's attitude, she knew it was out, calmly took her cap from the umpire and walked off to her place. Truely a Sehwag clone, making things happen while bowling

Yadav to Kainat Imtiaz, 1 run, full on off. Goes for a slog sweep. Top edge but falls short of short fine leg running in

Final over of the innings. How much can Pakistan end up on? The sun is out so batting will be much easier in the 2nd innings.

Shafali Verma to Fatima Sana, OUT, soft signal out! What's happened here?`Looks like Shafali may have taken a stunning caught and bowled. Full ball just outside off, and slapped back straight. Shafali gets low, dives to her right, and takes a stunning catch, ensuring that her fingers were wrapped under the ball before they grazed the pitch. Looks conclusive, and the screen at the ground confirms it!

Fatima Sana c & b Shafali Verma 8 (6b 1x4 0x6) SR: 133.33

Shafali Verma to Aliya Riaz, OUT, direct hit from mid off! Smacks this ball straight past the bowler's left to mid off, and Riaz takes off for the single. But the throw is aimed at the base of off stump, and S Meghana's strong arm has given India another run out wicket!

Aliya Riaz run out 18 (22b 2x4 0x6) SR: 81.81

Saad: "Wasn't that stumping appeal a no ball?As the gloves of the keeper were not behind the stumps." -- If that is the case, then it should've been a no-ball. The gloves can get in front only after the ball has crossed the stump.
