    Cross daren't look at her teammates. It's catching practice - but she's put it down.

  2. dropped catch

    Matthews dropped on 33

    Another! Can you believe it.

    Hayley Matthews chips one back at Kate Cross in her first over. She has to lean to her right and it's never easy catching in your follow-through, but that is definitely another chance and England are struggling here.

    It's been a great start for the West Indies and for the neutral fan... England haven't bowled too badly but Dottin and Matthews have put the bowlers under pressure.

  4. Speaking of dropped chances, here's the first one - which was the easiest, by a distance.

    And it was from the first ball of the game.

  5. WI 61-0

    Dottin 24, Matthews 33

    Nat Sciver replaces Katherine Brunt.

    There are smiles on the faces of both batters, and why not? They've started brilliantly, although England have helped them with their inconsistency and the two dropped chances.

  6. 'Brilliant batting'

    Unbelievable start from the West Indies, Just brilliant batting, when England have missed their lengths they've capitalised. When the lengths have been right, they have been solid and that must be demoralising as a bowler.

  7. WI 58-0

    Predictable again from Shrubsole as she goes full and straight, and Dottin hammers it over her head for another four.

    15 from the final over of the powerplay. That was proper fun.

  8. Lydia Greenway
    Ex-England batter on BBC Test Match Special

    Signs again that the pitch is pretty good, the length is slightly off and Hayley Matthews is in great form. Brilliant shot.

  9. 6 runs

    WI 53-0

    What. A. Shot.

    I repeat that Hayley Matthews is good at batting. Anya Shrubsole is finding some decent swing but it's just too predictable, as Matthews latches onto a full delivery to club it over long-on for six.

    She repeats the shot two balls later but only for four this time.

  10. WI 43-0

    Katherine Brunt delivers a maiden, which might calm her down a little.

    And the rain seems to have stopped.

  11. Lydia Greenway

    If you were to look at Hayley Matthews' wagon-wheel and where her career runs have been scored, that area just in front of square - usually off the back foot - is where so many of them come.

  12. WI 43-0

    Matthews 20, Dottin 19

    Hayley Matthews is good at batting, pass it on.

    She calmly negotiates five good balls from Shrubsole before latching on to some width and nailing it through the covers for yet another exquisite boundary.

  13. Rain on the way? Let's hope not!

    Just a few spots of rain. There was a little bit of mizzle before the start of the game, nothing too threatening but it is still a bit damp under foot.

    Katherine Brunt is going to combust in a minute, she's had a catch dropped, wides called against her as well - and it is raining steadily now.

  15. WI 39-0

    When she's in form, Hayley Matthews is just a joy to watch.

    She helps herself to two stunning fours off Brunt, who is bowling far too short. One is pulled through square leg and another beautifully timed past cover for the shot of the day so far.

    Class.

  16. Look at the difference in lengths delivered by Katherine Brunt and Anya Shrubsole...

    Katherine Brunt's bowling: 0% full, 37% good length and 63% short. 3 overs, 0 maidens, went for 12 runs, took 0 wickets with an economy of 4.00.
    Anya Shrubsole's bowling: 0% full, 83% good length and 17% short. 3 overs, 0 maidens, went for 16 runs, took 0 wickets with an economy of 5.33.

  17. Stephan Shemilt
    BBC Sport's chief cricket writer in Dunedin

    That would have been a very, very good catch but it is another one that England will think has got away from them.

  18. dropped catch

    Matthews dropped on 7

    WI 29-0

    A much, much tougher chance than Winfield-Hill's one, but it's a drop nonetheless.

    Tammy Beaumont runs backwards at point, attempts to take the ball over her shoulder and does well to get two hands to it, but can only watch as the ball rolls away and the batters cross for two.

    That's a life given to each of these dangerous openers now. How costly could that prove?

  19. Stephan Shemilt
    BBC Sport's chief cricket writer in Dunedin

    If Dottin, Matthews and Taylor lay the platform then the rest can get in their slipstream and chip in for West Indies, as we saw in the opening game.

  20. WI 22-0

    Dottin slogs the free hit in the air, and they run through for two. A much better over for the West Indies as they take seven from it.
