    Just a single from the final ball but the late flourish has got Australia up to a good total.

    One ball to go. Nic Carey on strike.

    WICKETpublished at 19.5 overs

    Perry st Priest b Kerr 21 (Aus 154-5)

    A wicket but more importantly for New Zealand it's a dot ball. Kerr drags Ellyse Perry out of her crease and Rachel Priest whips off the bails.

  4. Aus 154-4published at 19.4 overs

    One more to Haynes' total. She has 19 from eight balls.

  5. Aus 153-4published at 19.3 overs

    Oh no! A horror fielding error on the rope as Jensen lets the ball under her body. A bonus boundary for Australia.

    I think 150 could be a winning mark, but if Sophie Devine makes runs, 159 or 169 won't be enough!

  7. Aus 149-4published at 19.2 overs

    Respite for New Zealand, just a single.

  8. Aus 148-4published at 19.1 overs

    The crowd are loving the last few balls. Kerr's line isn't great either and Perry punishes her behind square on the leg side. Four more.

    Leggie Amelia Kerr will bowl the final over.

    That's what makes Rachael Haynes so hard to bowl to. She moves around and is able to get her hands through the ball. She can paddle, lap and do different things and you get flustered as a bowler.

  11. 6 runs

    Aus 144-4published at 19 overs

    Big finish to the over from Australia. Jensen loses her line, drifting onto the pads and Rachel Haynes hoists her high for six over fine leg. It only went 55m but that's enough with these small boundaries.

    Roberto Colombi: Hope we don’t play the Aussies in the semis - they’re looking in ominous and devastating form against the Kiwis.

  13. Aus 136-4published at 18.3 overs

    Better for Australia. Rachel Haynes shovels Jensen over the leg side for four.

  14. Aus 132-4published at 18.2 overs

    Singles from the first two balls, as Kristen predicted.

    Australia are just losing their momentum slightly.

    These two will run really well together in these last two overs. They've played a lot of games together both for New South Wales and Australia. They won't miss any singles.

  16. Aus 130-4published at 18 overs

    Perry 14, Haynes 2

    Peterson finishes her four overs with a respectable 2-31.

    Two overs to go.

  17. Aus 128-4published at 17.4 overs

    Australia won't want this innings to fizzle out.

    Elysse Perry dances down and whips the ball to the mid-wicket fence.

    Rachael Haynes never worries about stats; she just does what the game needs and here she needs to be on it straight away.

    Rachel Haynes is in at number six.

    Wow. That's a great catch. Not only has Suzie Bates had to move to her side but she's had to take it above her head. Peterson is taking key wickets again.
