    Australia well and truly on top here. This is definitely the most awkward and frustrated I've seen Laura Wolvaardt.

  2. SA 77-3

    Target 173

    Georgia Wareham continues to frustrate South Africa.

    Another boundary-less over, just five from it. The Proteas can't afford too many more of those.

  3. SA 74-3

    Another blemish in the field! Kapp and Wolvaardt run a risky second and it's a good throw in from Phoebe Litchfield but bowler Georgia Wareham can't gather the ball cleanly at the stumps.

  4. SA 72-3

    Target 173

    Oh, stunning. Laura Wolvaardt's cover drive is one you could watch on loop and never get bored.

    Four more off Sutherland.

  5. SA 63-3

    Better.

    Marizanne Kapp pulls Annabel Sutherland's first ball for four.

  6. Geoff Lemon

    South Africa aren't scoring anywhere near quickly enough.

  7. SA 59-3

    Target 173

    Ash Gardner is having a bit of a shocker on the boundary having already dropped a catch, this time fumbling through her legs which allows the batters to come through for a second.

    It could be something to do with the light, as Alex mentioned. It is dark, windy and gloomy.

  8. Firdose Moonda
    Cricinfo's South Africa correspondent on Test Match Special

    I was right to say that I'm more nervous than optimistic.

    South Africa don't really know what to do with that number three position. I think Marizanne Kapp would do a good job.

  9. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on Test Match Special

    I'm surprised the lights aren't on. It's very dark out there.

  10. SA 55-3

    Target 173

    Laura Wolvaardt has been starved of the strike and this is a crucial partnership between herself and the veteran all-rounder Marizanne Kapp.

    Wolvaardt plays a lovely lofted drive but the ball is hurled in from the ropes by a diving Ellyse Perry.

  11. It's Australia's game to lose now.

    Too full for De Klerk. She didn't really try and hit it, she was looking to dab it and manipulate the field.

    That's a huge wicket for Australia.

  13. Geoff Lemon
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    De Klerk was in no man's land, she couldn't decide what she wanted to do.

    WICKET

    De Klerk b Wareham 25 (SA 48-3)

    Just as South Africa were getting themselves back in the game.

    Georgia Wareham strikes at the perfect time as Nadine de Klerk is caught in two minds about whether to play off the front or back foot, and loses her off stump in the process.

    She's furious with herself as she was just starting to get going.

    Australia didn't finish that strongly. South Africa are still in it.

    That was hit with some strength. Annabel Sutherland is just about gathering to bowl and Wolvaardt is already walking down the pitch towards her.

    Somehow, Sutherland got out of the way.

  17. SA 43-2

    Target 173

    FansGetty Images

    A positive end to the powerplay from South Africa.

    Nadine de Klerk ramps Annabel Sutherland for four before Laura Wolvaardt smashes another boundary straight past the bowler.

    Despite the two early wickets, these two are ticking along nicely.

  18. Geoff Lemon
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    How has this transpired, Laura Wolvaardt has only faced seven balls?!

  19. SA 34-2

    Target 173

    An inconsistent start from Alana King as the six is followed by a wide, but obviously she should have a wicket to her name.

    What?! Ash Gardner has taken some of the best chances I've ever seen in world cricket. How has she dropped that?!
