  1. Aus 214-3

    Need 117 from 102 balls

    Every time it feels like India are just applying some pressure Alyssa Healy finds the boundary. This time, after five singles, she dispatches a shorter ball from Kranti Goud to the fence. That four brings the required run-rate back under seven.

    It has been a superb spell from Sree Charani, and we will wait and see if it has turned the game.

  3. Aus 205-3

    Need 126 more runs to win

    Sree Charani looks the biggest bowling threat right now. She concedes three singles in her over - one to an up-ish sliced cut.

    It was almost like Alyssa Healy didn't seem to hit it with force, but it was a simple flick of the wrists. Glorious shot from Healy.

  5. 6 runs

    Aus 202-3

    Target 331

    Healy is on the charge! A four through the covers and then a six cracked over mid-wicket on the sweep.

    India took those two quick wickets, in addition to Ellyse Perry retiring hurt, but unless they get Healy they're going to lose this.

    A lot more work is still left to do, but Alyssa Healy has played brilliantly.

  7. 100 runs

    100 for Alyssa Healy

    A single down the ground. A wave of the bat - the helmet only coming off for a brief moment.

    Alyssa Healy gets to her hundred in 84 balls but knows there's a lot more work to do.

  8. Aus 190-3

    Alyssa Healy sweeps for four to move to 99...

  9. Alice Davidson-Richards

    Ash Gardner has been looking a bit tentative until then, and the Australian bench would be happy to see that as well.

  10. 6 runs

    Aus 186-3

    Need 145 more runs from 120 balls

    Down the ground goes Ash Gardner. We had almost had four overs without a boundary but off the final ball of the 30th the all-rounder times a six straight back down the ground.

    A lovely counter-punch.

  11. Aus 176-3

    Healy 93, Gardner 3

    Good fielding from India denies Alyssa Healy a single and with a dot ball following from Deepti Sharma the pressure cranks up a notch or two.

    The Australia bench looks a tense place now.

  12. Alice Davidson-Richards
    England cricket all-rounder on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    The Indian team is starting to squeeze here with their fielders backing their bowlers, and it is something that they would have learnt from the previous matches. A lot of pressure will be added on to the incoming batters if India can get Alyssa Healy.

  13. Aus 174-3

    Target 331

    Ash Gardner does just what ADR suggests, knocking singles to two of her three deliveries in this over.

    Healy still looks in control. So must rests with her.

  14. Alice Davidson-Richards
    England cricket all-rounder on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Ash Gardener just needs to rotate strike and keep taking singles. There is still so much cricket to play, and the required run rate is only a little above seven. As long as you are there or thereabouts, Australia are very much in it.

  15. Ash Gardner emerges into the cauldron. She's already got one hundred in this tournament.

    Sree Charani is getting just enough spin on the ball there to beat Annabel Sutherland's outside edge.

    WICKET

    Sutherland b Charnai 0 (Aus 170-3)

    India are right on top now! Left-arm spinner Sree Charani bowls Annabel Sutherland with a beauty that turns to beat the outside edge. There are high fives among the India coaches in the dressing room. Was that a plan for Sutherland? It looks like it. That was Charani's first ball of a new spell.

  18. Aus 170-2

    Need 161 from 138 balls

    India have jumped to 68% on WinViz after that as Deepti Sharma collects and throws the ball back over the stumps from her follow-through. It's a fair distance from batter Sutherland but just a way of cranking up that pressure.

  19. Alice Davidson-Richards
    England cricket all-rounder on BBC Test Match Special

    India will be incredibly happy there, and with Ellyse Perry retiring hurt, it has given them a way back into the game.

  20. Annabel Sutherland is the new batter.

    She picked up five wickets earlier. What can she contribute with the bat? Australia need 163 from 142 balls.
