    Sarah Coyte is brought into the bowling attack as Australia shuffle their pack before lunch. The 24-year-old, who has a twin brother called Adam, bowls flighty medium pace - trying to angle the ball in. When she strays, singles are taken into the leg side.

    When Gary Kirsten was bowled by Mark Butcher during the 1999-2000 Test in Durban. He was level with Darryl Cullinan when Butcher bowled him, bringing an end to the second longest innings at the time. What a let down!

  3. Eng 5-0 (target 263)published at 12:30

    Ellyse Perry is not troubling Lauren Winfield, bowling far too wide of off stump to interest the opener into playing at it. Maiden over... but England are best advised to get to lunch unscathed and then launch their assault mid-afternoon.

    No ice cream truck, no party!

    England are going to have a dip at this target, judging by the quick single taken by Lauren Winfield.

    “It’s a glorious day in Canterbury at the St Lawrence Ground and the crowd is slowly building.

    “Despite the sun, the ice cream truck, which got a fair few orders in yesterday’s tumultuous weather has not turned up, much to the disappointment of one young fan who has just asked his mum how he’s supposed to enjoy the cricket without an ice cream."

  6. Eng 4-0 (target 263)published at 12:22

    Heather Knight looked in fantastic nick in the first innings, timing the ball sweetly. If she bats for 50 overs, England have got a fantastic chance of victory. Five dots follow that opening boundary in the first over.

    Spare a thought for Alex Blackwell, who was on 47 when Australia declared.

    Ellyse Perry, war paint plastered across her nose and cheeks, opens the bowling for Australia. Right-arm quick.

    First ball? Heather Knight whips it through mid-wicket for four. Up and running in style.

    Australia gather for a huddle while the England openers lean on their bats and chat. Should be a good game now this.

    "Australia have got plenty of time now to bowl this England side out and they will fancy their chances of getting 10 wickets. This little period up to lunch will be key and it's important for England that they get through that and get settled."

    Aus 156-6 (lead by 262)

    ...And that is that. Australia wave their remaining batter in and declare - setting England 263 runs to win off around 89 overs.

    Alyssa Healy, showing more urgency than some of her colleagues, is bowled trying to reverse-sweep Heather Knight. Missed it by a mile...

    "Don Bradman's duck was the perfect climax; cricket is an agonising game! Warne's 99, Tendulkar and Lara not on the Lord's honours board etc."

    "I'm not sure why Australia are still out there. If I were in their position I'd declare now."

  15. Aus 152-5 (Blackwell 46, Healy 6)published at 12:01

    Alyssa Healy's uncle is Ian, the former Australia wicketkeeper. She's from good cricketing stock, underlined by a fantastic lofted drive back over Laura Marsh's head for four. That lead is now 258. Drinks.

    Alex Blackwell has a fifth Test half-century in her sights - scoring her last 35 runs off 64 balls after taking 77 to get her first 10.

    A very damp squib this one. Rain put paid to any drama as Australia won using the Duckworth-Lewis method.

    As it's 67 years since Don Bradman's duck cost him an average of 100, we're asking for your greatest cricketing anti-climaxes.

    Laura Marsh is colour co-ordinated, her red stripe on her cricket spikes matching the trim on her England shirt. You notice these things when the game is coasting. Alyssa Healy is the new batter. That Australian lead is now 249 runs.

    "It's a very good take in the end and it's a very good innings from Jonassen, doing her bit for Australia. She's played aggressively with a good strike rate. I’m sure she will be happy with her contribution."

    Great catch. Positioned at short cover, Lydia Greenway takes a diving catch to get rid of Jess Jonassen and her flashing blade. The ball was hit hard, making the catch even better.
