    Australia have made a good start but New Zealand will at least be happy to have dismissed Alyssa Healy...

  3. Aus 38-1published at 6 overs

    Amelia Kerr tosses down two more dots to follow that review but then serves up a filthy full toss. It's slapped to the boundary by Lanning.

    The umpire will have enjoyed getting that first big decision right in a big game.

  5. Not outpublished at 04:24 Greenwich Mean Time 2 March 2020

    It turned too much! The ball hit Meg Lanning outside the line on the sweep.

    New Zealand lose their review.

    There's no bat...

    Amelia Kerr just seems to keep reinventing herself. Usually, players get worked out and it becomes harder to take wickets or score runs, but three years into her international career, she is still taking so many wickets.

    Massive appeal for lbw! This looked good. It's Meg Lanning too. You've gotta review and New Zealand do.

    Here's New Zealand's 19-year-old leg-spinner Amelia Kerr with pink war paint on her cheeks to match her shirt.

  10. Aus 33-1published at 5 overs

    Mooney 17, Lanning 6

    Sophie Devine will want this over to start again. She goes too full and is driven for her second boundary. Throw in a wide too and it's an expensive over. 11 from it.

    Mooney looks good.

  11. Aus 27-1published at 4.2 overs

    Oh my. That's a shot. A perfect cover drive from Aussie skipper Meg Lanning for her first four.

  12. Postpublished at 04:18 Greenwich Mean Time 2 March 2020

    There have been plenty of bowling changes from New Zealand. Sophie Devine brings herself on. She's the fifth different bowler in five overs.

  13. Aus 22-1published at 4 overs

    Mooney 12, Lanning 1

    Just two runs come from Rosemary Mair's over. New Zealand are buzzing around in the field.

    Lanning is off the mark.

  14. Aus 21-1published at 3.4 overs

    Meg Lanning would love nothing more than to lead from the front in this crucial game. She tries to guide her first ball down to third man but plays and misses. Tension.

    The captain Meg Lanning is striding out, instead of Ash Gardner, and I'm not surprised one bit. She wants to lead from the front in a big game.

    Skipper Meg Lanning is in at number three. New Zealand will be happy to have her in early.

    The mid-wicket fielder was in the ring and Healy mis-timed it, straight to the fielder.

    WICKETpublished at 3 overs

    Healy c Kerr b Jensen 9 (Aus 20-1)

    Gone! Alyssa Healy eyes another boundary but she only manages to clunk it to mid-wicket for the simplest of catches.

    New Zealand's celebrations tell you how big a wicket that is.

  19. Aus 20-0published at 2.4 overs

    You can't bowl short at this pace! Alyssa Healy will gobble you up all day long. It's a bit of a hack across the line but four runs.

  20. Aus 15-0published at 2.1 overs

    Seamer Hayley Jensen, who already has six wickets to her name in this tournament, is introduced to the attack early by Sophie Devine.
