    Beautiful shot from Smriti Mandhana, and obviously wanting to put to bed all the worry that India had against left-arm spinners.

  2. 6 runs

    Ind 36-0

    Molineux delivery 'launched high' by Mandhana towards long on for six

    Another bowling change as left-arm spinner Sophie Molineux - in for Georgia Wareham - summoned by Alyssa Healy.

    The left-handed Smriti Mandhana decides she fancies a bit.

    The India batter hammers Molineux's first ball down the ground for four then slogs her over mid-on for six.

    I don't think openers from either side have been firing in this tournament yet, so it's a good start from the Indian openers so far.

  4. Ind 26-0

    It looks a pretty flat deck in Visakhapatnam so unsurprisingly Alyssa Healy has turned to spin.

    Ash Gardner first up.

    She is willing toss a few up but neither Smriti Mandhana nor Pratika Rawal willing to take the bait.

  5. Ind 23-0

    Megan Schutt, white sun cream smeared over her nose, is back on the money in her third over. Probing away outside stump.

    India manage to nudge a couple of singles.

    England cricket all-rounder on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Again, another beautiful shot there from Rawal, and she played it right under her eyes. A little bit more wristy and slightly bit more square than the previous one. When you're a batter and you have played those two shots, you are very happy.

  7. Ind 21-0

    More runs from Pratika Rawal, this time deliciously working Kim Garth through mid-wicket.

  8. Alice Davidson-Richards
    England cricket all-rounder on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Beautiful shot there through mid-wicket from Rawal. Just waited for the ball, perfectly timed and didn't try to hit it too hard, and when you can play such shots off your pads, then as a batter you know you're in a good place.

  9. Ind 15-0

    Pratika Rawal is looking in decent touch here.

    Third ball of Megan Schutt's over is on her pads and she whips it square for four.

  10. Ind 9-0

    India watchful as Kim Garth continues to find some movement with the white ball early on.

    Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal content o pick up a single apiece.

  11. Ind 7-0

    Solid start from the dependable Megan Schutt, who is right on the money.

    Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal with a single apiece.

  12. Alice Davidson-Richards
    England cricket all-rounder on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Classic cover drive there and timed so well from Smriti Mandhana. Bit of an eye roll there from Kim Garth as she isn't happy with the amount of width she offered.

  13. Ind 5-0

    A bit of swing for Kim Garth early on.

    Pratika Rawal picks up a single with a square drive through backward point.

    Smriti Mandhana finishes the over with India's first boundary, with a crisp cover drive.

  14. Kim Garth has the ball in hand, Pratika Rawal is on strike.

    Here we go.

  15. 'Make use of the conditions'

    Australia captain Alyssa Healy: "I'd like to have a little look at the conditions. We'll make use of the conditions while we have got them. At some point in the World Cup you you need to pull everything together as a team.

    "We've played against India a lot. It should be a great atmosphere and I am sure everyone will enjoy it."

  16. Teams

    India: Smriti Mandhana, Pratika Rawal, Harleen Deol, Harmanpreet Kaur (captain), Jemimah Rodrigues, Deepti Sharma, Richa Ghosh (wicketkeeper), Amanjot Kaur, Sneh Rana, Kranti Gaud, Shree Charani.

    Australia Alyssa Healy (captain & wicketkeeper), Phoebe Litchfield, Ellyse Perry, Beth Mooney, Annabel Sutherland, Ashleigh Gardner, Tahila McGrath, Sophie Molineux, Kim Garth, Alana King, Megan Schutt

  17. Molineux replaces Wareham

    India are unchanged as they keep faith with the same XI which suffered a three-wicket defeat to South Africa.

    Australia make one change as Sophie Molineux is preferred to Georgia Wareham giving a little more strength to the spin bowling department.

  18. 'It is about how you bounce back'

    Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur: "The pitch looks quite better than what we had in the last game, so we will be able to set a better total. We are going with the same XI.

    "Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose, but it is about how you bounce back. We all sat together and spoke about the last game, and I know the last five overs didn’t go for us, but for 95 overs we were there in the game.

    "The crowd has always been there for us, and they are a big part in our life, and we are getting the support, and we will enjoy it."

  19. Australia win toss and bowl first

    We had the toss a few moments ago.

    Australia skipper Alyssa Healy called correctly after India captain Harmanpreet Kaur gave the coin a toss.

    Healy decides she fancies a chase and asks India to bat first.

  20. Welcome...

    It's Day 13 of the Women's World Cup and we have a tussle between two of the tournament's heavyweights as hosts India play favourites Australia.

    This is your place for all of the key moments from the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam.

    Hello, good morning and welcome. As the late great Sir David Frost might say.
