    England can't really take singles because they don't want Lauren Filer on strike.

    You don't want to hear me say I told you so, do you?

    I won't.

    England need 46 runs from 54 balls.

    Suddenly, a run a ball becomes really hard to get in this circumstance.

  4. Eng 135-8

    This time Amy Jones does take the single but it's only a single.

    Lauren Filer has two balls to survive and the equation has squeezed further.

    England need 46 runs from 56 balls.

  5. Eng 134-8

    Another run is turned down by Amy Jones. She doesn't trust Filer to survive.

  6. Eng 134-8

    Amy Jones turns down a single first ball and Alyssa Healy has a word behind the stumps.

    Mind games.

  7. The experienced Megan Schutt will bowl the 41st over.

  8. Henry Moeran
    Test Match Special commentator

    England don't quite need a miracle, but they need something special. Is Amy Jones the key?

  9. Eng 134-8

    Need 47 from 60 balls

    Amy Jones does the right thing - telling Lauren Filer 'I'll take it from here'.

    She sits on her bat at the non-striker's end to keep the strike for the next over.

    This is such an entertaining contest.

  11. Eng 134-8

    Another one gets through! This one is leg byes.

    That boundary takes the runs required below 50.

  12. Eng 130-8

    That was the first boundary in 59 deliveries by the way.

  13. Eng 130-8

    Edged for four!

    They all count...

  14. England are cooked, according to Cricviz.

    This has been something of a bowling display here from Australia. They've put themselves in the driving seat.

  17. Eng 126-8

    Well that's Alana King's spell done at least. 4-25 from 10 overs. Majestic.

    England need 55 runs from 66 balls.

  18. dropped catch

    Filer dropped on 0

    All happening.

    Lauren Filer drills the ball at short mid-on where Kim Garth can only parry the ball.

    England at least get a single.

  19. Eng 125-8

    Another beats Filer's edge.

    Forget what I said before. Lauren Filer just has to survive these two balls now.

    This certainly isn't the script that we thought we'd see here after this morning.
