Steve: Only way England win this is to call correctly at the coin toss, bat first, put runs on the board & pressurise Australia in the chase. I look forward to being proved wrong.

Anya Shrubsole is a big occasion player. She steps up when it matters.

There's swing for Shrubsole, but off her second delivery Haynes tickles it off her hip to the fine-leg boundary despite a valiant effort from Brunt to stop.

Healy nudges it to third for the first run, and then Rachel Haynes pushes off her legs from her first for another single in a tidy first over from Brunt.

Anya Shrubsole will send down the second over.

Oooh! The second ball has Healy fencing outside the off stump as it swings away from the bat.

It's outside off stump, Healy pushes off the back foot into the covers and Sophia Dunkley fields.

Katherine Brunt will take the new ball, with Alyssa Healy to face.

It's going to be a tough ask for England. Healy and Haynes added 216 for the first wicket in their semi-final.

But from bowling attacks, England's is a lot better. Sophie Ecclestone is the trump card - if you're losing a game, you bring her on. If you're winning a game, you bring her on.

I can't wait to see how England start.

Right, the anthems have been sung with gusto and we are all set.

Rachael Haynes and Alyssa Healy will stroll out to the middle very shortly.

England are full of smiles. They are so happy to be here, they're waving and laughing.

Australia can barely pick their eyes up off the floor. The moods seem very different.

The teams are out for the national anthems, and our commentators have spotted that England are full of smiles as they come out but Australia are looking very, very serious.

Pressure?

I got a message from Heather this morning saying 'Up the Argyle' because her Plymouth side beat my Oxford United yesterday.

I felt it was a bit unnecessary but it shows she's relaxed!

While I accept some of you may be in a different timezone to me, to get us going I'm going to ask you send in your memories of favourite overnight sporting memories.

I'll give you one to be going on with - Melbourne, 1982 Ashes Test match, Tavare spills a chance but Miller grabs the rebound and England beat Australia by three runs.

By the barest of margins. There, I've said it...

This is an Australia team for whom the pressure is enormous. They have won 37 of their last 38 ODIs but it will count for nothing if they don't win today.

Test Match Special is already on BBC 5 live, tune in to listen to Alison Mitchell, Henry Moeran, Alex Hartley and recent birthday boy Stephan Shemilt right now.

Hagley Oval looks to be an absolute picture right now, and the forecast looks good.

Australia have been superb throughout, winning all eight games. They have won 37 of their last 38 games, they are arguably the strongest international team in world sport.

Take a look at Stephan Shemilt's match preview.

After those defeats to Australia, West Indies and South Africa, the chances of England making the final looked to be, to paraphrase Muhammad Ali, somewhere between slim and none.

But here we are - momentum can be a funny thing in tournaments - think Pakistan in the men's World Cup in 1992.

England are on a roll.

When you find out Ellyse Perry is fit to play...
