  1. Ind 235-4

    Need 54 from 48 balls

    Richa Ghosh arrives at the crease and she knocks a single to long-on to bring Deepti Sharma back on strike.

    The India all-rounder attempts two big slog sweeps but doesn't get either away - Smith appeals for lbw off the first, but the ball pitched outside leg.

    Just two runs off the over - that could be crucial.

    Linsey Smith has a knack of picking up Smriti Mandhana. She is the one to bowl across to the left-hander.

    Mandhana has not played a shot in anger for a while. A weak dismissal.

    WICKET

    Mandhana c Capsey b Smith 88 (Ind 234-4)

    Now, will that change the momentum of this match?

    Smriti Mandhana will have to wait for that ODI hundred against England, as she holes out to long-off.

    It's Linsey Smith who claims her first wicket of the day, with the ball finding Alice Capsey who takes the catch running in from the rope.

    Too much laughing and smiling from this England team. They don’t take it serious enough.

    England will regret not having gone harder in the powerplay. And the wickets they lost towards the end - three for eight runs in 14 balls. You can't be doing that.

  6. Ind 233-3

    Need 56 from 54 balls

    Four for Deepti Sharma, greeting a slower full toss from Lauren Bell and sending the ball past a diving Emma Lamb at short fine.

    Bell responds with a yorker then a bouncer past Deepti's grille.

    Would love to know the comparison of dot balls. Feels like India have been given a free pass past the 30yd circle.

    Elly

    India bowled 137 dot balls. After 40 overs, England have bowled 111.

    Smriti Mandhana has never scored a hundred against England in an ODI. Her highest was 91 at Hove in 2022.

  9. Ind 227-3

    Need 62 from 60 balls

    Charlie Dean finishes her day with a four-single over.

    She's got figures of 1-67, a tad expensive.

  10. Ind 223-3

    Need 66 from 66 balls

    One-bounce four!

    Lauren Bell, bowling around the wicket, starts with three dot balls but Deepti Sharma dispatches the fourth to the long-on boundary.

  11. How's stat?!

    Ben Jones
    CricViz analyst

    Since the Harmanpreet wicket in the 31st over, India have played just 10% false shots - the lowest for any phase of the game. All while scoring at better than a run a ball.

    Every time you think England are applying some run-rate pressure, India just get out of it. They choose the exact moment to attack and get a boundary and know when to rotate the strike.

  13. Ind 218-3

    71 needed from 72 balls

    Smriti Mandhana is moving a little gingerly, but is OK to continue for what proves to be an expensive Charlie Dean over.

    Her third delivery slides down the leg side for five wides, and Smriti Mandhana guides the follow-up through third for four.

    Two balls later she brings up the 50 partnership from 46 balls with a single to point.

    12 runs off the over, and India now need less than a run a ball.

  14. Ind 206-3

    83 needed from 78 balls

    Hello, what's this?

    Smriti Mandhana is hobbling at the end of Sophie Ecclestone's over and she's called the physio on.

    I'm not sure where this injury has come from - if she has to come off it'll be a big blow for India.

  15. WinViz has it 59-41 in India's favour against EnglandBBC Sport/CricViz

    This partnership is putting India in control on WinViz.

  16. Ind 200-3

    89 needed from 84 balls

    Smriti Mandhana of IndiGetty Images

    Deepti Sharma sends Alice Capsey's ball down to deep third, where a chasing Emma Lamb just about keeps the ball away from the rope and saves two.

    Smriti Mandhana sends the last ball of the over out to long-off for a single, bringing up India's 200.

    Why does it feel like England are winging it? Both with bat and ball there doesn't seem to be any plan, just reactive cricket and we are always behind. We seem to hope things come off....

    Smart batting from Deepti Sharma. Her sweep shots weren't working and she knows the ball isn't turning hugely. She is finding the gaps well.

  19. Ind 193-3

    96 needed from 90 balls

    A first four for Deepti Sharma, off the 20th ball she's faced.

    It's the last delivery of Sophie Ecclestone's over, and Deepti dispatches it along the ground and over the ropes at long-on.

    She moves to 15.

  20. Ind 186-3

    Six singles from Alice Capsey's six deliveries.

    This pair just ticking along for now.
