    There's no bat. This looks pretty good.

    There's only one ball remaining so why not give it a try...

  3. Bangladesh reviewpublished at 19.5 overs

    Nahida Akter is out!

    Or is she?

    She decides to review the lbw decision despite being half way off the field.

  4. Ban 106-6published at 19.4 overs

    Two more. Driven down to long-on this time.

    Good awareness and running by Mst Ritu Moni and Nahida Akter.

    Nigar Sultana Joty played so nicely in these innings. The only one to provide some resistance for Bangladesh.

    Joty c Lanning b Gardner 57 (Ban 99-6)

    The end of a brilliant innings.

    The Bangladesh skipper Nigar Sultana Joty looks to drag into the leg side but can only sky it up into the air.

    Her Australia counterpart Meg Lanning steadies herself at cover and takes the catch. She lets out a puff of relief.

    Joty finishes with 57 off 50 balls, with seven fours and one six.

  11. Ban 97-5published at 18 overs

    Pace bowler Megan Schutt returns and Alyssa Healy opts to stand up to the stumps. That'll keep the Bangladesh batters in their crease.

    It doesn't affect Nigar Sultana Joty though, as the Bangladesh skipper pulls to the square-leg boundary.

    Two overs left. Can they get 120?

    This would have been a very good catch...

  13. Ban 90-5published at 17 overs

    Ufff. Lovely bowling.

    Spin and bounce from Georgia Wareham and she beats the outside edge of Mst Ritu Moni.

    Wareham finishes with 3-20.

    Georgia Wareham's bowling: 20% full, 76% good length and 4% short. 4 overs, 0 maidens, went for 20 runs, took 3 wickets with an economy of 5.00.

    Just when Bangladesh are trying to be a bit more aggressive the wickets are falling.

    Rumana b Wareham 4 (Ban 90-5)

    Georgia Wareham has three.

    Rumana Ahmed got off the mark first ball with a nice ramp shot, but she's bowled, looking to sweep, from the third ball.

    Australia are squeezing nicely.

    I'm not sure that was a deliberate googly but it did the job.

    Shorna b Wareham 12 (Ban 86-4)

    Bowled her!

    A little bit of turn for Georgia Wareham and it goes between the bat and pad of the advancing Shorna Akter.

    It cannons into middle stump and Wareham has a second wicket on her return to the Australia fold.

    Where has this been from Shorna Akter?!

  20. Ban 86-3published at 16 overs

    Hello!

    A bit of width from Ash Gardner and Shorna Akter whacks it back down the ground for her first boundary.

    She's on 12 from 26 deliveries now.
