    Raj: Perfect for England getting Brunt & now Wyatt into form exactly when it matters. Is England’s name on the trophy?

  2. Eng 84-1published at 17 overs

    Need 22 runs to win

    Excellent stuff from Wyatt and Knight, just rotating the strike when the boundary options aren't there.

    Cruising towards victory.

    Danni has played brilliantly and I'm pleased England have kept giving her opportunity at the top.

    The run map shows Danni Wyatt scored 52 with 7 fours, 1 three, 5 twos, and 11 singles for England Women

    Need 28 runs to win

    A chance goes begging for Pakistan. Danni Wyatt comes down the pitch, miscues a lofted drive which should be a straightforward catch for mid-off - but Fatima Sama completely misjudges it and can only watch it sail over her head.

    Target 106

    The graphic on screen tells us that England need 34 to win from 210 balls.

    Anyway, time for a quick drink.

    I think Wyatt has been given a licence to end this match quickly.

    I think it would give Heather Knight and Danni Wyatt confidence to walk off with red-inkers.

  8. 50 runs

    50 for Danni Wyattpublished at 05:19 Greenwich Mean Time 24 March 2022

    A maiden fifty in an ODI World Cup for Danni Wyatt! A lovely innings under pressure having not scored many runs coming into this game.

    Chasing a low total can be tricky sometimes, but she's played fearlessly and used it to her advantage to spend some valuable time in the middle.

  9. Eng 71-1published at 14 overs

    Target 106

    Top-order runs for Danni Wyatt will please the England dressing room greatly.

    She thumps Nida Dar down the ground and nudges and nurdles a few singles, refusing to let the spinners settle.

  10. Eng 66-1published at 13 overs

    Target 106

    You can sense Danni Wyatt is itching to charge down the wicket and have a good old slog at the spinner, but she just manages to resist after mistiming a couple.

    She has 45 from 44 balls and England need 40 to win from 37 overs. That run-rate seems manageable.

    Here we go! Left arm spinner Nashra Sandhu is into the attack.

  12. Eng 61-1published at 12 overs

    Target 106

    Aliya Riaz comes on to bowl and gifts England 10 from her first over, including two enormous wides.

    I'm not sure why Pakistan's spinners aren't on yet. After Diana Baig, that is their strength.

    It's good for England this - wickets for Katherine Brunt and now runs for Danni Wyatt.

    A proper heave from Danni Wyatt spirals in the air but plugs safely for two.

    She looks confident, despite not quite pulling that off. Here for a good time, not a long time.

    Target 106

    Wide, swing of the bat, edge ... and four! No slip, and Danni Wyatt is not hanging around.

    A good powerplay for England, who are well ahead of the run rate despite the early wicket.

  17. Eng 42-1published at 9.1 overs

    Bismah Maroof places a fielder in at short mid-wicket.

    And the bowler does exactly what you don't want to do when you're fielding there: bowls an absolute pie that Danni Wyatt pulls straight at her.

    The fielder just evades it, and thankfully - that was hit hard and nearly took her out.

    Just the one wicket to fall for England so far, Tammy Beaumont once again playing all around a straight one.

    Diana Baig is a dual international - she also plays football for her country.

  20. Eng 38-1published at 9 overs

    Target 106

    Danni Wyatt spoils Diana Baig's figures slightly by carving a wide ball out into the covers for three.

    It's still been a great spell from Pakistan's premier seamer so far, who could easily have three wickets to her name with a little more luck.

    Diana Baig's bowling: 3% full, 91% good length and 6% short. 5 overs, 0 maidens, went for 11 runs, took 1 wickets with an economy of 2.20.
