    What a catch from Jemima Rodrigues there. It's a great reaction and her reaction to that afterwards - she is pumped up.

    WICKET

    Mooney c Rodrigues b Deepti 4 (Aus 168-2)

    Lift off. Jemimah Rodrigues dives at extra cover to produce the bit of magic India needed. She's going to her left. Beth Mooney has hit it pretty well. Rodrigues clings on and the crowd is jubilant.

    An expensive experiment from the Indian captain, Harmanpreet Kaur. 10 runs off that over, and she will need to work out her line if she wants to continue bowling - a full toss that's been played to the leg side and then a wide delivery on the off side.

  4. Aus 168-1

    Target 331

    Drilled over extra cover. Alyssa Healy into the nineties.

    WinViz is still backing India but you'd be brave to put any money on that now.

  5. Aus 164-1

    Well as it stands this only looks like going one way. Alyssa Healy is playing a gem.

    Now she just places a full toss over the head of wicket-wicket and between the two fielders in the deep.

  6. A grand total of two wickets have fallen on my watch in this match.

    Rest assured India fans, Matthew Henry has nine in the bag from earlier. He's going to talk you through the remainder of the contest.

    Which way is this one going, Matt?

  7. Aus 158-1

    Beth Mooney opens her account with a dab into the off side off Deepti Sharma.

    A misfield at the end of the over allows her to pinch another couple of runs.

    A very animated discussion between Ellyse Perry and the physios, as well as the umpire, now. Perry is clearly struggling, and she is walking off the pitch due to cramps. She is going to be retired hurt and we saw it with Chamari Athapaththu yesterday against England.

  9. Perry retires on 32

    The Australian physio comes out and chats to Ellyse Perry. Does she have cramp here?

    Either way, Perry is in some discomfort and decides to retire on 32. Officially that's retired hurt so she can come back out later in the innings.

    Beth Mooney is the new batter.

    It's extraordinary the way this game has unfolded in contrast to other games in the tournament. This has not been a World Cup that has been batter-friendly, but we are possibly going to see a very high run aggregate here. I shouldn't count my chickens, but Australia seem to be very well placed.

  11. Alyssa Healy now has 80 off 65 balls. Here's the best of the first 50 of those runs.

  12. Aus 154-1

    Singles galore off Shree Charani now as Alyssa Healy and Ellyse Perry work the ball into the gaps with relative ease. Where's India's next wicket coming from?

  13. Raf Nicholson
    Cricket journalist on BBC Sounds

    Alyssa Healy is really going along nicely here, and she is playing such an important innings for Australia. It is important that she keeps going positively, whilst Ellyse Perry knocks it around and gets more comfortable out in the middle.

  14. Aus 149-1

    Deepti Sharma starts with two dots, but over pitches her third ball and Alyssa Healy sweeps it behind square for four. Impressive stuff from the Aussie captain.

    Final ball of the over and Healy makes the most of one slightly shorter from Deepti and heaves it through the leg side for four.

    Pressure valve released for Australia. Smart batting.

  15. Aus 141-1

    In need of some inspiration, Harmanpreet Kaur chucks the ball to left arm spinner Shree Charani.

    Miserly stuff from Charani with Ellyse Perry unable to pierce the in-field

    A maiden over from Charani. With 1-8 from four overs the 21-year-old has been the standout bowler for India.

  16. Raf Nicholson
    Cricket journalist on BBC Sounds

    Really nice stroke from Alyssa Healy. She is having some drinks brought out to her, and the humidity is worse than before and progressively getting worse as the match goes on. Healy is slightly struggling with that, but perhaps she can deal with just boundaries.

  17. Aus 141-1

    Five singles off Sneh Rana's over before Alyssa Healy goes down on one knee and sweeps it for four.

    Australia look relatively untroubled here but WinViz still has India as favourites here.

  18. Aus 132-1

    Kranti Gaud grimaces after she some width to Ellyse Perry and the Aussie scythes it away behind point. Easy pickings for a player of Perry's class.

  19. Aus 125-1

    Sneh Rana is deftly reverse swept by Ellyse Perry... Hang on a second? That actually came off the back of the Australian's bat.

    Later in the over, Alyssa Healy plays a trademark back-foot cut to cut Rana for four.

    Just the one wicket to fall so far in Australia's innings.

  20. Raf Nicholson

    Five singles from that over, and Australia have to be a little careful that it doesn't get away from them, and they need to keep positively attacking that run rate and not let the required run rate get away from them.
