    England haven't scored a run in 25% of the ground yet.

    Nat Sciver-Brunt is starting to turn to inventive strokes, pulling out the paddle and picking up two off Georgia Wareham, but England are otherwise dealing in singles and dots.

    All is not lost for England - there's still the fireworks of Freya Kemp and Dani Gibson to come and Sciver-Brunt did some late accelerating alongside Heather Knight against South Africa on Thursday.

    It's annoying watching Australia again.

    They have been so clinical and their plans are working. England aren't out of it at all but they do look a bit nervous, there isn't much foot movement.

    I'd like to see them release the shackles a little bit.

    Australia's field placements are perfect and England are really struggling to find the gaps.

  5. Eng 39-2

    Capsey 4 (6), Sciver-Brunt 18 (17)

    Lucy Hamilton returns to the attack and forces a couple of sharp intakes of breath, Alice Capsey swinging and missing twice.

    Capsey can't capitalise on a free hit, hitting into the ground, and is nearly run out at the non-striker's end as they dash for a single.

    Very much Australia's powerplay. They've picked up two wickets and restricted England to just five boundaries.

    The good news for the batting side? Captain Nat Sciver-Brunt is still in.

    This is the third time this pitch has been used, by the way. It has had a week off in between uses.

    A change in strategy for Australia - that was just Sutherland’s second over in the powerplay so far in the competition.

    They have been clinical with their plans and bringing Mooney up to the stumps is a very smart plan to Danni Wyatt-Hodge with how much she likes to move around the crease.

  9. Eng 33-2

    England have been squeezed in this powerplay. It's all a little nervy from the batting side.

    Alice Capsey gets off the mark with a single.

    WICKET

    Wyatt-Hodge c Mooney b Sutherland 8 (Eng 32-2)

    There's a spike, a little tickle from Danni Wyatt-Hodge's attempted flick!

    It was an excellent tumbling take from Beth Mooney behind the stumps, moving to her left. And excellent work to convince captain Sophie Molineux to take a punt on the review, too.

    Wyatt-Hodge is out for eight. England are two down in the powerplay.

  11. Australia review

    Now then. Beth Mooney is very interested in a caught behind against Danni Wyatt-Hodge.

    The umpire signalled a wide but Australia send it upstairs.

  12. Eng 32-1

    Annabel Sutherland's opening over is proving a profitable one for England.

    Nat Sciver-Brunt mashes two boundaries - the second off a free hit from a front-foot no ball - and runs hard with Danni Wyatt-Hodge for a couple more.

    Australia can't afford to give Danni Wyatt-Hodge any width here. She is striking at 260 against balls wide outside off in the competition, compared to just 105 when the ball is tight to the stumps.

  14. Eng 20-1

    Australia captain Sophie Molineux saw her opening delivery hit to the boundary, Danni Wyatt-Hodge dancing down for a heave but instead slicing through backward point.

    But the next five only brought two singles for England.

  15. Eng 20-1

    OHHH that was close! Nat Sciver-Brunt got in a bit of a tangle to a turning delivery from Sophie Molineux, dabbed at it, and set off for a slightly dicey single.

    Danni Wyatt-Hodge had to put in a superman dive to get home safely with Beth Mooney whipping the bails off just a fraction too late.

    Well that should be the end of Amy Jones as an England player. Nowhere near an opening batter and her wicketkeeping has been poor throughout this tournament.

  17. Eng 14-1

    Wicketkeeper Beth Mooney is sticking with her strategy of standing right up to the stumps when Danni Wyatt-Hodge is on strike.

    The England opener takes a single off the opening ball of the third over and Mooney takes a few paces back.

    Kim Garth restricts England to three runs.

    It comes in threes: so far for the Aussies, Friday done by Egypt in the football, Saturday done by Ireland in the rugby. Sunday is it the old enemy in the cricket?

    Surely that early wicket has given you hope, Matt?

    It feels like that's what Amy Jones should've done to her wicket ball! Nat Sciver-Brunt just waited a little later.

    A real shot of authority.

    Nat Sciver-Brunt makes a statement with her opening stroke, banging a wide delivery into the off side for four, but three balls later, the England captain is swinging and missing at one.

    Tight over from Lucy Hamilton.
