5.40pm So, job done from England. Kept it tight, given themselves the ideal chance to press for a first win of the tournament. But, you can't take anything for granted against the Asia Cup champions, whose bowling is the stronger suit... Alan will be here shortly to talk you through the chase

1
Shrubsole to Salma Khatun, 1 run, tip and run to midwicket, flung in sharply, but can't quite pull off a run out, that's the full allocation, England need 77 to win!

Daniel: ""Gordon has her first international wicket" don't say that too loudly, the Scots will hear you." Whoops, first England wicket, I am happy to clarify!

19.5

Shrubsole to Khadija Tul Kubra, 1 run, into the toes, slogged to the leg side

Shrubsole to Khadija Tul Kubra, 1 run, making room on the leg side, Sciver flicks her return but can't get enough power to effect the run-out
19.1
1
Shrubsole to Salma Khatun, 1 run, sliding into the pads, Beaumont gathers at fine leg. Nicely timed to be fair

Shrubsole to polish things off

0
Ecclestone to Khadija Tul Kubra, no run, looking to work into the off side, Jones gathers, one over to go of an innings that hasn't really got going
18.5
0
Ecclestone to Khadija Tul Kubra, no run, so nearly sneaks through! Caught in two minds, and barely laid bat on it in the end
18.4
W
Ecclestone to Jahanara Alam, OUT, sliced in the air, and Ecclestone strikes again! Aiming over the off side this time, but got it high on the bat, and Knight on the edge of the ring made no mistake

Jahanara Alam c Knight b Ecclestone 12 (7b 1x4 1x6) SR: 171.42

18.3
6
Ecclestone to Jahanara Alam, SIX, outside off, and absolutely butchered over long-on! Fetch that!
18.2
0
Ecclestone to Jahanara Alam, no run, a hint of turn from round the wicket, straightening off the pitch to meet a clip to leg
18.1
W
Ecclestone to Fahima Khatun, OUT, round the wicket once more, biffed out to midwicket, Sciver is like a panther, and that was run out before the ball had even been returned. On the back foot, so was slow setting off. No recourse to the third umpire there!

Fahima Khatun run out 2 (4b 0x4 0x6) SR: 50.00

END OF OVER:

Smith to Fahima Khatun, 1 run, full toss, boshed on one knee to long-on
17.5
1
Smith to Jahanara Alam, 1 run, chance of a run-out, but Smith can't gather! A sharp shy from short third man as the batsmen were caught in mid-pitch
17.5
1w
Smith to Jahanara Alam, 1 wide, down the leg side, we'll have that one again
17.4
0
Smith to Jahanara Alam, no run, flogged into the off side, looking for power over placement and missing out on both
17.3
4
Smith to Jahanara Alam, FOUR, driven past Ecclestone at mid-off, Smith offered just a touch too much width, and that was superbly sliced through the gap
17.2
1
Smith to Fahima Khatun, 1 run, tossed-up, turned into a full toss, and there goes the record!

Alan tells me that 57 is the tipping point for the female Bannerman, ie, the highest percentage of a completed innings from one bats(wo)man....

16.6
