    That is such an unusual shot to play for your first ball. You have no idea what the bowler or the pitch is doing when you just come in.

    It's looking more and more improbable for Pakistan.

    WICKET

    Shamim b Deepti 0 (Pak 146-7)

    Rameen Shamim tries to paddle a sweep from her first delivery but ends up being bowled around her legs. India are closing in.

    On paper it does not look like a close contest and India were always likely to win. However, if Pakistan had just been tidier in the field, they could have been chasing around 210.

    WICKET

    Nawaz c&b Rana 14 (Pak 143-6)

    Sneh Rana is smiling. I don't think she knows how she held onto this. A drive from Sidra Nawaz is horribly timed and it dips on the bowler as it makes its way back to her. Rana clings on and Pakistan are six down.

    Sidra Ameen has been the shining light of this Pakistan side and has shown how to go about this surface. Her shots have been hugely impressive.

  7. Pak 141-5

    Need 107 runs from 78 balls

    That's a good shot from Sidra Amin, who moves to 70 by biffing Sree Charani through long-off for four. She drives a four squarer at the end of the left-arm spinner's over too.

    A century for Amin would brighten Pakistan's day.

  8. Pak 130-5

    Kranti Goud tries that sharp bouncer again but this time it is pulled for four. This is only her ninth ODI but she has 18 wickets. It has been a very exciting start to her career.

  9. Pak 124-5

    Target 248

    Richa Ghosh has a guilty-looking wry smile on her face. Is this another drop?

    It was, you know. An edge by Sidra Nawaz hit her on the knee.

    Renuka Singh Thakur has bowled much better than the numbers can express. That exaggerated swing and the pressure she created - a really classy set of bowling.

  11. Pak 122-5

    Need 126 more runs from 96 balls

    This match has been players standing around not playing, interspersed by occasional spells of cricket. So many stoppages.

  12. Pak 117-5

    Deepti Sharma has hurled another at Sidra Amin, hitting in her in the back of the legs this time. Amin holds her hands out to ask what the point in the throw was.

    The umpires turns towards Deepti, who in turn appears to ask what the problem is. She thinks she was within her rights to throw.

    Deepti is rarely one to back down and the result yet another break in play.

    India will feel relatively comfortable at this stage but they will want to bowl this out soon.

    Sidra Ameen will know that Pakistan's only hope in this game is if she keeps pushing somewhere close to her best.

  14. Pak 114-5

    Amin 57, Nawaz 4

    Having conceded a boundary after another misfield, Deepti Sharma hurls the ball with a hint of anger after the next delivery is defended by Sidra Amin. This game has neither been a classical or particularly high in quality.

  15. Pak 106-5

    Need 142 runs from 108 balls

    It appears our fridge follower has swapped the cricket for the football. I am taking it personally.

  16. 50 runs

    50 for Sidra Amin

    A big punch of the air from Sidra Amin after getting to her fifty from 82 deliveries. She has lost her momentum at times today but is still there.

  17. Pak 102-5

    Target 248

    Sidra Nawaz joins Sidra Amin in the middle. Her ODI average is 9.74 which tells you something.

  18. Aatif Nawaz

    Just as Pakistan were recovering, there is now a long way to go. This is going to be very challenging from here on.

  19. wicket

    WICKET

    Sana c Mandhana b Deepti 2 (Pak 102-5)

    There will be no batting follow-up to the impressive bowling from Fatima Sana. She skies a catch to long-on to depart for a stodgy two from 15 deliveries.

    Pakistan's race is run now, if it wasn't already.

  20. Pak 101-4

    Need 147 more runs to win

    Kranti Goud continues to impress through her latest over by testing Fatima Sana with a lively bouncer. It had the Pakistan skipper swaying even on a slow pitch.
