  2. Ind 167-5

    Deepti 7, Rana 3

    Pakistan miss out on dismissing Rana after declining to review possible catch

    What's gone on here? Amid all of the madness, Sneh Rana has nicked a drive behind the keeper but no-one appealed!

    If Fatima Sana can keep India close to the 220 mark then Pakistan will be really happy and will fancy their chances.

  4. Ind 167-5

    There's a cricket match going on, of course.

    This is how Jemimah Rodrigues was dismissed...

    'About as plumb as you can get' - Rodrigues out lbw after Pakistan use review

  5. Ind 166-5

    After a resumption, there's more groundstaff running onto the field at the end of the over.

    Hopefully they're bringing on a massive Venus Flytrap to stand next to the umpire.

    What about Alastair Cookroach?

    Andy from Barnsley

    Ricky Pontick.

    Simran, Leeds

  7. We've got another bug-related delay. I think one has flown into the eye of bowler Rameen Shamim.

    Surely there would also be a Bee team...

    Nick from Clapham

    A Bee De Villiers

    Simon, Leeds

  9. Ind 164-5

    We can do better than that, Hayden. Kemar Roach can make an unfortunate appearance in our XI.

    Nick Gnat to open the batting.

    Hayden in Nantwich

  11. Ind 160-5

    Just one from that over as the sun sets over Colombo.

    India will want to get over 200 as a minimum.

    Rob, Fargo

    How about Gnat Sciver-Brunt?

    Mark, London

  13. Ind 160-5

    Simran's text arrives right on cue as Sneh Rana swings her bat at the swarm of insects before facing the first ball.

    Brian Larva?

  15. Sneh Rana has been pushed out of the door rather than Richa Ghosh.

    Jemimah Rodrigues goes! She is a very powerful sweeper but that was not the right shot to try there.

    If Pakistan can keep making scoring difficult then they will fancy themselves.

    WICKET

    Rodrigues lbw b Sandhu 32 (Ind 159-5)

    'About as plumb as you can get' - Rodrigues out lbw after Pakistan use review

    Gone! As we expected. It's plumb.

    Nashra Sandhu gets the big wicket and now the game is back in the balance.

  18. Rodrigues has definitely hit the ground with this sweep. I don't think there's an edge.

  19. Pakistan review

    This has to be out! Jemimah Rodrigues misses a sweep and is hit on the pad. The umpire says no but...

    It doesn't look like the fumigation has done anything, in fact it looks like there are more bugs now! Did he bring the wrong smoke?
