  1. Not outpublished at 15:58 Greenwich Mean Time 15 February 2023

    Yep, the catch isn't clean and we go on.

    The West Indies are celebrating. But no decision has been made just yet. I reckon this will be not out.

    She has hit but has it been caught? Has it been grounded?

    That's gone into the ground. You certainly can't say decisively that it hasn't.

    There's an edge, but did the keeper take it cleanly? It was very low to the ground.

    Has she hit that? It might be a creaky bat handle.

    Ind 113-3

    Has Richa Ghosh edged one behind? Umpire says no. After an age, West Indies choose to go upstairs.

    Target 119

    Another four from Richa Ghosh. India need just six more. One hit away...

    West Indies seamers have just bowled too short and wide.

    That is a poor delivery and Richa Ghosh was not going to miss out.

  10. Ind 109-3published at 16.1 overs

    Ghosh 35, Kaur 32

    Into the attack comes Shabika Gajnabi.

    Her first delivery is slashed over point by Richa Ghosh for four.

  11. Ind 105-3published at 16 overs

    Good response from Chinelle Henry going for three more runs from her next five balls.

    14 needed from 24.

  12. Ind 102-3published at 15.1 overs

    That's the 100 up. Richa Ghosh pulls Chinelle Henry to the ropes.

  13. Ind 98-3published at 15 overs

    21 needed off 30 balls

    Hayley Matthews bowls her final ball and finishes with figures of 1-12.

  14. Ind 97-3published at 14.4 overs

    The umpire is overruled! The one short was wrong and India are now just 22 runs away not 23.

    I don't think it will make too much of a difference...

  15. Ind 96-3published at 14.4 overs

    Oh was that the moment? I think Richa Ghosh got an edge on that, either way the keeper doesn't take it.

    And as India scamper away for runs Risha Ghosh doesn't quite ground her bat on the turn and a rare one short is signalled.

    We're seeing it all today.

    Harmanpreet Kaur gets a two to bring up the 50 partnership with Richa Ghosh.

    The pair have steadied the ship and have built a brilliant platform for their side.

    Australia started to look at their women's game about 10 years before everyone else, so they are ahead of everyone else.

    We even talk about who they will face in the final, and maybe even who they will beat. England are close and India will get closer.

    South Africa don't really have a domestic women's structure.

  18. Ind 92-3published at 14 overs

    India need 27 from 36.

    Afy Fletcher looses her length and Harmanpreet Kaur sweeps her to the fence.

    Next ball and Kaur takes a risky single but a poor throw allows her to scamper in.

  20. Ind 87-3published at 13.2 overs

    Afy Fletcher was whacked for 17 in her first over but she's back into the attack now. West Indies just need something to happen, anything, because India are running away with things.
