  1. dropped catch

    Mooney dropped on eightpublished at 3.3 overs

    Aus 36-0

    Gayakwad goes round the wicket to the left-hander - who lifts a low catch back to the bowler, who can't hold on.

    India really need to take these.

  2. Aus 36-0published at 3.2 overs

    India need a wicket - and turn to the left-arm spin of Rajeshwari Gayakwad. Mooney plays out her first dot ball - but then helps herself to her first boundary with a lofted cover drive.

    It's going to be all about wickets in this powerplay.

  4. Aus 32-0published at 3 overs

    Healy 27 (14 balls), Mooney 4 (4)

    Mooney tips-and-runs her requisite quick single. But Deepti Sharma's last ball is a ropey one down the leg side, and Healy helps it on its way for four, giving keeper Taniya Bhatia no chance. Deepti has 0-23 from two overs.

  6. Aus 27-0published at 2.4 overs

    Alyssa Healy continues to ride her luck - and evade the fielders - chipping a two over wide mid-on. A single takes her to 24 from only 13 balls.

  7. Aus 24-0published at 2.1 overs

    Deepti Sharma to continue. Beth Mooney has barely had any of the strike so far - but remains consistent with a third single from three deliveries.

    The MCG feels like the centre of the world at the moment.

  10. Aus 23-0published at 2 overs

    A more convincing drive is cut off by the diving Jemimah Rodrigues.

    The MCG is absolutely rocking.

    She's living dangerously but she's still there. That's the key.

  12. dropped catch

    CLOSE!published at 1.5 overs

    Aus 23-0

    Healy - whose husband Mitchell Starc is in the crowd, having returned early from Australia's men's tour of South Africa - has the chance to pause for breath with a couple of dot balls - but then lifts another four, just over the leap of Deepti Sharma at extra cover.

    This is stand and deliver stuff from Alyssa Healy.

  14. Aus 19-0published at 1.2 overs

    Healy is going great guns here - whacking Pandey back over her head for four. She has 17 from six balls.

  16. Aus 15-0published at 1.1 overs

    Shikha Pandey - or to give her full name and rank, Squadron Leader Shikha Pandey of the Indian Air Force - is India's sole front-line seam bowler.

    Mooney steers her first ball for a single.

    Alyssa Healy is riding her luck and when she gets an extra life, she tends to put her foot down. Shafali needs to park the disappointment now. Hopefully a senior player will go over and say it's all good because she's so crucial to India winning this game.

  18. Aus 14-0published at 1 over

    Healy 13, Mooney 1

    And a terrific first over for Australia ends as Healy drills another four through the covers.

  19. dropped catch

    Aus 10-0

    And now she's dropped! It's the 16-year-old Shafail Verma who can't hold on to a low chance at cover.

  20. Aus 10-0published at 0.4 overs

    A better delivery, but Healy opens the face well to guide the ball down past backward point for four.
