'Brilliant innings' - Mandhana makes superb century off 51 balls

  1. Eng 25-2published at 2.4 overs

    That's an imperious shot from Nat Sciver-Brunt, stepping down to Amanjot Kaur and dispatching the ball for four.

    She watches it all the way to the rope, a stern expression on her face.

    Target 211

    Tammy Beaumont is batting at four in a T20I for only the second time. She probably didn't expect to be batting in the second over...

    England take eight runs off the over, including a boundary for Nat Sciver-Brunt.

    The required rate is well above 10 an over.

    Mark Hollings: You have to wonder about the decision making regarding picking Danni Wyatt-Hodge, who hasn’t been able to buy a run in an England shirt all summer.

  5. Eng 16-2published at 1.4 overs

    A much-needed boundary for England as Nat Sciver-Brunt sends the ball back down the ground for four.

    England need a big innings from their captain.

    Danni [Wyatt-Hodge] went against her natural grain. She would normally have smashed that for six.

    Danni Wyatt-Hodge has got herself caught, the simplest of catches. That is Danni's third T20 duck in a row now.

    What was I saying about an ideal start for England?

    Two wickets in two ball for India and a third successive T20I duck for Danni Wyatt-Hodge. She edges a simple catch to Harleen Deol at short third.

    The India players are running to Richa Ghosh! They know that is a big wicket. A superb bit of keeping.

    Dunkley c Ghosh b Kaur 7 (Eng 9-1)

    What a grab by wicketkeeper Richa Ghosh!

    It's a slightly wider delivery from Amanjot Kaur which Sophia Dunkley slashes at and Ghosh, diving to her right like a goalkeeper, takes an excellent catch.

  11. Eng 4-0published at 0.1 overs

    Well, that's an ideal start, isn't it?

    Amanjot Kaur is opening the bowling for India and is immediately hit for four by Sophia Dunkley.

    For me, all eyes will be on Danni Wyatt-Hodge. She didn't have a great series against the West Indies but she scored a mountain of runs in the T20 blast.

  13. Postpublished at 16:21 British Summer Time

    Right, the players are back out in the middle, with Sophia Dunkley and Danni Wyatt-Hodge opening the batting.

    England need 211 to maintain their winning record under Charlotte Edwards. Can they do it?

    Why not have a vote. Thumbs up for an England win, thumbs down for India.

    Katherine Sciver-Brunt was talking about England hitting the stumps in that innings. Here are the stats:

    • Overall - 18 balls, 14.5%
    • Pace - Four balls, 5%
    • Spin - 14 balls, 29%

    However, England's performance so far has been disappointing, with expensive bowling and plenty of dropped catches.

    Will they fare better with the bat?

    How good was Smriti Mandhana?

    She top-scored for India with 112 off 62, including 15 fours and three sixes, and thwacked the ball to just about every corner of Trent Bridge.

    In case you missed any of her maiden T20I century - and if so, what were you doing? - here are the highlights.

    Thanks Tim and hello everyone!

    Have India got this in the bag, you ask? Well, they're certainly the favourites. England need a daunting 211 to win.

  18. Postpublished at 16:15 British Summer Time

    England will need to be infinitely better with the bat than they were with the ball. Trent Bridge is a big-scoring ground, though.

    My esteemed colleague Elizabeth Botcherby is on hand to talk you through the remainder of this contest. Have India got this in the bag, Elizabeth?

    England haven't fielded to the highest of standards today if we are being honest.
