Sharma b Villani 25 (Ind 238-4)
Elyse Villani, I take it all back - as Sharma misjudges the length and is bowled. But there's no great celebration from the Aussies, such is the drastic match situation.

BBC Test Match SpecialAustralia are in a world of trouble here. It's just raining boundaries at Derby and Harmanpreet Kaur is having a career day.
Ind 238-3published at 38.3 overs
Villani - for whom describing her as "medium pace" is being a little generous - is absolute cannon fodder here. Kaur crashes another four through the covers, Villani floats down another wide and Kaur helps herself to a single.
Ind 232-3published at 38.1 overs
Four overs left. To think that during the 32nd over, the "score predictor" only reckoned India would score 210.
The latest Australian being thrown into the lion's den is Elyse Villani, bowling her part-time right-arm medium pace for the first time today. And her first ball is a ropey legside wide, they run a single to get Kaur on strike - and Kaur blasts Villani's first legitimate ball over mid-wicket for six!

Ex-England batter on BBC Test Match SpecialIndia have got a huge licence here. 260 must be the target.

BBC Test Match SpecialI hate this field for the line Schutt is bowling. But we are seeing one of the great World Cup innings here.

Ind 224-3published at 38 overs
Kaur 134 from 102 balls
Full and wide from Schutt, Kaur swings and misses, but then cracks a powerful drive wide of mid-off, and bashes another first-bounce four to the same region. The bowler has her head in her hands - how and where do you bowl to someone in this form? Schutt has 1-51 from eight overs, she's taken some punishment today.

Not out. Sharma to 25 from 34 balls.
Third umpirepublished at 16:25 British Summer Time 20 July 2017
Elyse Villani is warming up, perhaps she's going to have to bowl after all. It's Schutt for now, bowling her eighth over. Deepti Sharma, very much the Andrew Ridgeley of this fourth-wicket stand, attempts a quick single and there's a quick check with the third ump...

Ex-England batter on BBC Test Match SpecialThere's a lot of scratching of heads here and you can understand why. Kaur is completely taking the mickey with this field.

BBC Test Match SpecialIt looks like a bit of calf trouble for Kaur. She's currently getting her foot waggled by the physio.

Kaur has a quick visit from the physio between overs. Again, it's the back of her lower left leg which is needing attention. She has 126 from 98 balls.

BBC Test Match SpecialAustralia don't have enough fielders here for Harmanpreet Kaur.
Ind 215-3published at 37 overs
Now Kaur goes the other side of the ground, with a first-bounce four over cover. Where will Gardner bowl the next one? It's outside off stump and Kaur crashes it through the covers for four more. Australia are really up against it now.
A two off the last ball means Gardner's over went for 23 - the sequence being 1-6-6-4-4-2.

Ind 205-3published at 36.3 overs
Now that is definitely six, that's over mid-wicket and well over the advertising boards! And it's the century stand.
