150 for Tammy Beaumontpublished at 46.3 overs

No surprise there, really. Tammy Beaumont is in full control of her innings and gets there with back-to-back fours and a double. She becomes only the third Englishwoman to make 150 in an ODI.

"I think the England girls will continue to play a few scoop shots here. There's lot of space behind the wicket."

This is one from the Nida Dar fielding hall of shame - she comes in a few yards from the boundary and drops Elwiss for the second time.

Beaumont is now in party mode. She brings out another reverse sweep shot, goes for four, and then tries to do the dil-scoop! Although the latter doesn't bring any runs, but you know... may as well go for it.

What did I tell ya? Sciver looks hungry for a score today. Lofts Maroof over the infield, and yet another looped up delivery is given the treatment on the leg side. Not a bad way to bring up the team 300. How many do we think England will reach here?

Sciver moves about 50 metres (not really!) wide of the off-stump to pull Sadia Yousuf's spin to fine leg for four. And then does the same the very next ball. She looks in the mood.

Sorry Pakistan fans, probably not what you need right now. And captain Sana Mir, look away now. Here she is, shelling a catch from Georgia Elwiss.

Crikey! How quickly has Beaumont moved through the runs? Feels like a minute ago we were celebrating her century and now she's motored on to 130. Slaps Amin's spin on the full for four over cover and then does exactly the same a couple of deliveries later.

"it's going to be a brilliant next seven or eight overs. Tammy really looks in the mood for it today. There could be some fireworks."

More of the same from England, really. A boundary from Beaumont after nearly being caught out by Yousuf. And another set of three runs takes the total nicely to 259.

"What a moment for Tammy Beaumont. It's probably a better innings the other day because she didn't start so well. But she got through that tough early phase and has played a fantastic innings.

"That's back-to-back hundreds for her and she is batting with real maturity at the moment.

"Pakistan will be ruing that dropped catch when she was on two. It's an unbelievable effort by Tammy."

Another entry in the face-in-hands category for Pakistan. Sadia Yousuf drops a catch off her own bowling. Tammy Beaumont survives yet again, as a straight drive is spilled by the spinner.

Now then, how do England approach this? Nine overs left and 248 on the board. Another 100 to the total will do nicely, I think.

Milestone! Tammy Beaumont gets the ton. Well played! She plays a reverse sweep (what a time for it!) for two to move to 99 before a quiet nudge to go to three figures. Takes off her helmet and raises the bat and is given a hug by Sciver.

Sciver gets her first boundary with an imposing cut on the off side. That was really a dominant shot as she stood up on the back foot to Sadia Yousuf. She's on eight off four balls and certainly not beyond a quickfire innings, having scored 80 from 33 balls in the second ODI.

"Georgia Elwiss was looking so good, and she will be disappointed she's out missed a chance to score her maiden hundred. 

"Sana Mir has just taken the fielders out of the equation by targeting the stumps instead."

Natalie Sciver joins Beaumont in the middle after Elwiss' dismissal. And, in fact, I can now reveal that Elwiss was bowled down the leg side but from between the pads, if that made sense. She went down the wicket, and misjudged the line.
