  1. Eng 120-5

    Target 181

    Amy Jones and Alice Capsey each stand with an arm on one hip at the end of the over. They look calm. What about inside?

  2. Eng 118-5

    It's not getting any easier to watch.

    Frantic running, the ball spinning past the edge.

  3. Leg-spinner Alana King is coming back on for the first of three remaining overs.

    Here's a reminder of what she was doing earlier...

    Allana King removes Dani Wyatt for a Golden Duck

    That drinks break has come at the right time for England after those two chances. It might give these two a chance to settle and see how they are going to approach this. At the moment the Aussies are hunting for wickets as a pack.

  5. Drinks break

    Drinks come onto the field at a good time for both teams.

    England need 65 from 96 balls.

  6. dropped catch

    Jones dropped on 21

    Massive.

    This is a sitter and so un-Australia.

    Amy Jones cuts straight at Ash Gardner at backward point but she shells the catch in front of her knees.

    Ex-Australia batter on BBC Sounds

    It was a fair way in front of the front pad so you should know if you've hit but Alice Capsey seemed reluctant to do so. That's a let-off for England.

  8. Not out

    Alice Capsey and Amy Jones punch gloves.

    Breathe.

  9. Michelle Goszko
    Ex-Australia batter on BBC Sounds

    It's close to the bat. That's the only thing that can save her here.

  10. There's a spike...

  11. I must be honest, I thought Alice Capsey had hit it...

  12. Henry Moeran
    Test Match Special commentator

    I thought I heard two noises. She's reviewed it but not quite as quickly as someone who is convinced they have hit it.

  13. England review

    Given lbw!

    If Alice Capsey hasn't hit this she's in huge trouble.

    She reviews...

  14. Kim Garth returns...

  15. Eng 113-5

    Need 68 runs from 102 balls

    Ash Gardner is applauded by her team-mates and all of those chilling on the grassy banks - if you can chill in such a situation, that is - for her fielding.

    There looked for all of the world like there'd be two but she's quick across the ground and rapid to get the throw in,

  16. Michelle Goszko

    Megan Schutt is doing well to build some dot-ball pressure on England.

  17. Eng 112-5

    Dot, dot, dot, dot...

  18. Michelle Goszko
    Ex-Australia batter on BBC Sounds

    This is a good little partnership for England. They cannot afford to lose this match, can they?

  19. Eng 112-5

    Need 69 more runs to win

    Ash Gardner still has those huge shades on as she returns to the attack once more. Amy Jones gets down low to drag the ball from outside off stump for a single but that's the only run.

  20. Eng 111-5

    Need 70 more runs from 114 balls

    So much rests on this next hour or so.

    If England fail to get over the line having bowled Australia out for 180 it would be such a punch to the stomach that it would be hard to see them recovering.
