    Elysse Perry replaces Jess Jonassen, can she stem this flow of runs?

  2. Eng 68-1published at 13 overs

    Annabel Sutherland drops short a couple of times but England are able to milk her for some comfortable singles.

    It's a lovely sunny evening in Hamilton, the lights are on and they will be in full effect soon.

    Brilliant shot from Beaumont, knowing that Jonassen isn't really a big turner of the ball so the outside edge isn't really in danger.

  4. Eng 64-1published at 12 overs

    Target: 311

    Tammy Beaumont comes down the track and powerfully hits Jonassen's spin over mid on for a one-bounce four. They take seven off the over as England maintain their recent rate of scoring.

    Play is under way in Rawalpindi, where Australia's men took part in a minute's silence to remember Shane Warne, who died yesterday aged 52.

    It's day two of the second Test, and Pakistan are 257-1. Follow the live scorecard here.

    Annabel Sutherland is on for Megan Schutt, but her brisk seamers leak singles off her first two deliveries.

    That is an excellent shot up and over extra cover/ mid-off. That is really tough when the ball is turning away from you.

  8. 6 runs

    Eng 51-1published at 9.1 overs

    Wow! Jess Jonassen replaces Darcy Brown, and Heather Knight greets her left arm spin with a dismissive loft over cover point for England's first six!

    This is good from Beaumont, good intent. She knows that England can't afford to get behind the rate chasing such a large total.

  10. Eng 45-1published at 9 overs

    Beaumont drops to her knee and slices a wide one from Schutt away past third and down to the boundary. England are building momentum nicely here.

    Good running, that was a real feature of the Australia innings, especially when Haynes and Lanning were batting.

  12. Eng 41-1published at 8.2 overs

    Tammy Beaumont chips Schutt straight back over the umpire's head, and the ball only just eludes Annabel Sutherland as she runs back over the advertising carpet.

  13. Eng 39-1published at 8 overs

    That's a gorgeous shot from Heather Knight, as she rocks back just a touch to guide Brown behind point for four.

    One ball later and the skipper drives off her pads through midwicket for another boundary. Skills on both sides of the wicket off the back and front foot.

    Brilliant from Tammy. Slightly overpitched from Schutt and Tammy just goes with the swing, a good, calculated shot. Anything short or full on this pitch, you have to punish.

  15. Eng 27-1published at 6.5 overs

    Beaumont looks to be hitting her straps now, as she lifts Megan Schutt high over midwicket for another four.

    Two balls later she drops to her knee to sweep/lap Schutt behind for a cheeky two.

    Jack Rule: I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again! Why is Danni Wyatt not opening the batting? Also dare I mention Emma Lamb? Good opener and extra bowling option.

    South Africa have beaten Bangladesh by 32 runs in Dunedin. Bangladesh slumped from 69-0 to 113-6, and never recovered in their chase of 208 to win. Ayabonga Khaka took four wickets for South Africa. The full scorecard is here.

  18. Eng 18-1published at 5.1 overs

    Boof! Tammy Beaumont hooks a horrible short one from Darcy Brown powerfully away to the backward square leg boundary.

  19. Eng 14-1published at 5 overs

    Megan Schutt does a little hop at the start of her run, a bit like Mark Wood did at one stage. She concedes just a single off her third over, and England are a bit behind the rate here.

    For England, as much as they'd like to be finding the boundaries, if they can keep rotating and put the bowlers under pressure that way, that will hopefully give them a bit of momentum to build some sort of platform.
