    That is a stupendous piece of work from Amy Jones, who was off-balance, grabbed the ball with one hand and got the bails off while Mithali Raj was dawdling. Mithali's running hasn't been great in either of the ODIs, frankly.

    Never run on a mis-field - even I know that!

    WICKET

    Raj run out (Dunkley/Jones) 59 (Ind 192-9)

    She's a couple of yards short!

    So, here's how that happened:

    1. Jhulan Goswami pulls towards Sophia Dunkley at deep square leg

    2. The ball goes through Dunkley's hands

    3. She turns round and flicks the ball in just before it touches the boundary

    4. She then gets up, and throws the ball to Amy Jones, who gathers the ball, in front of the stumps, and knocks the bails off with her elbows.

  5. Umpire review

    This is an absolute mess.

    A Sophia Dunkley mis-field on the boundary rope, means England may have Mithali Raj run out.

    Upstairs we go.

  6. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    It's so hard to get Mithali Raj out in white-ball cricket. In some aspects, she has done her job - without her, India would have been bowled out for 150.

  7. Ind 190-8

    Every run is being applauded at the moment.

    Can India get up to 220 in the final four overs? If they bowled extremely well it would given them an outside chance.

  8. Ind 188-8

    Why is Jhulan Goswami coming in at 10?

    She plays a lovely cut for four, before a thumping cover drive for a single.

    Corin Williams: Blimey! Amy Jones has been outstanding behind the stumps today, some sharp keeping.

  10. Ind 182-8

    Oh, that's close! Jhulan Goswami plays a lovely drive, but with a direct hit she's gone by an absolute mile. Katherine Brunt makes it back to the stumps, and tries to flick the ball on, but misses the ball. Unlucky.

    Goswami is in glasses, and covered in suncream. She looks fantastic.

  11. Stephan Shemilt
    BBC Test Match Special

    Brunt and Goswami are two old sparring partners.

  12. Katherine Brunt is back into the attack. She'll want to pick up at least one scalp.

  13. Here is how Kate Cross completed her five-wicket haul.

  14. Isabelle Westbury
    Ex-Middlesex captain on BBC Test Match Special

    This is where Mithali Raj can justify her approach. She can say, "well, people are going to criticise me for taking up balls but nobody else is going to do it". Nobody is playing around her.

  15. Ind 181-8

    Jhulan Goswami edges her first ball onto her pads.

    India have only scored 50 runs in the last 13 overs, and they've lost five wickets in that time.

  16. Isabelle Westbury
    Ex-Middlesex captain on BBC Test Match Special

    Amy Jones goes unnoticed a lot of the time. But we've seen her come to life today and we've seen something quite beautiful.

    WICKET

    Pandey c Jones b Sciver 2 (Ind 181-8)

    Amy Jones again! Nat Sciver has 50 ODI wickets.

    It's another thick edge as Shikha Pandey looks to drive away, and Jones takes another excellent catch.

    England are in complete and utter control.

  18. Stephan Shemilt
    BBC Test Match Special

    India look like they're going to fall well short of a competitive total again.

  19. Ind 180-7

    Shikha Pandey is the new batter and she gets off the mark from the final ball of the over to keep the strike.

  20. Isabelle Westbury
    Ex-Middlesex captain on BBC Test Match Special

    That's another fantastic bit of work from Amy Jones behind the stumps. She's not chirpy as a wicketkeeper, she almost goes against the grain in that regard, but she certainly makes her presence known.
