    England pace bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    Lauren Bell is a natural inswing bowler and the field is set to encourage her to swing it into the right-hander.

  2. Ind 0-0

    Target 143

    And the first ball goes for a dot as Shafali Verma tickles one to the off side.

  3. Deep Dasgupta
    Former India wicketkeeper on BBC Two

    England are probably 10-ish short so India should be confident and it looks a good batting pitch.

    But let's not forget that England have some really good spinners.

    I want to see India being more aggressive.

  4. Thanks Callum. Lauren Bell has ball in hand and will open the bowling for England.

  5. Right, India's chase of 143 is just about to begin.

    Joe Rindl will talk you through it.

  6. Deep Dasgupta
    Former India wicketkeeper on BBC Two

    Freya Kemp is just 17. She didn't show any nerves and is so, so talented. And don't forget, she bowls left-arm seam as well.

  7. But England were pulled up to a total that gives them a chance by 17-year-old Freya Kemp, who made an unbeaten 51, and Maia Bouchier, who added a career-high 34.

  8. Bryony Smith and Amy Jones then put on 32 for the fourth wicket, but both fell in quick succession as England slipped to 54-5.

  9. We'll just run you through some of the key moments from that first innings in the interval.

    Here are the first three wickets that fell as England slipped to 16-3.

  10. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Two

    It's a decent score. England will be really happy. When you lose quick wickets like England did, that's a brilliant job to get up to 140.

  11. India need 143 to win

    A dot ball to finish.

    Radha Yadav goes wide and Freya Kemp isn't able to get bat on it.

    She finishes unbeaten on 51 off 37 balls and she may well have dragged England up to a total they can defend.

    They have recovered from 54-5 to post 142-6.

  12. 50 runs

    50 for Kemp

    Well batted, Freya Kemp!

    She again uses her feet and it allows her to get to the pitch of the ball and crash the ball back past the bowler for another four.

    It is only second time she has batted for England and it is a maiden T20 half-century. She was one not out in her previous innings.

    Her team-mates stand and applaud the 17-year-old on the touchline.

  13. Anya Shrubsole
    Former England bowler on BBC Two

    That's an unbelievable shot from Freya Kemp.

  14. Alison Mitchell
    BBC Two

    We have a talent on our hands.

  15. 6 runs

    Eng 138-6

    Six more.

    Freya Kemp moves to 47 with another big blow straight back down the ground.

    She is such a clean striker of the ball.

  16. Tymal Mills
    England pace bowler on BBC Two

    Mid-wicket was inside the 30-yard circle. Sophie Ecclestone chose to go aerial. She didn't have to over hit it. She knew as soon as she hit it it was going to the boundary.

  17. Eng 130-6

    Ah, the final-ball boundary. That is always disappointing for bowlers and their sides.

    It was a good over from Pooja Vastrakar before that, but Sophie Ecclestone is able to find the gap between mid-wicket and long-on.

    Six balls remain. Can England get up to 140?

  18. Here's how stand-in captain Amy Jones was dismissed.

    It wasn't the prettiest of shots.

  19. Eng 121-6

    Single, single, dot ends the over.

    That is a good one for India with just four runs coming off it.

    The partnership between Maia Bouchier and Freya Kemp was worth 65 off exactly eight overs by the way.

  20. Anya Shrubsole
    Former England bowler on BBC Two

    This is set up perfectly for Sophie Ecclestone.
