    Deliveries like that will help. Devilka Vaidya has bowled a full toss on leg stump that Chedean Nation easily pulls away for four.

    That was a freebie.

    The three quick wickets have really slowed West Indies down.

    Can West Indies take advantage of that good fortune? They took six off that over from Rajeshwari Gayakwad in the end.

    That should've been taken by Deepti Sharma.

    That should be another wicket!

    Chedean Nation has lofted the ball up towards Deepti Sharma running in from long off but she spills what looked like a routine catch.

  7. WI 82-4published at 15 overs

    There's plenty of glum faces in the West Indies dugout. It has all gone wrong in the last couple of overs.

    Shabika Gajnabi and Chedean Nation are the new batters. Can they rebuild and drag West Indies up to a competitive score?

    Gone!

    Chinelle Henry's bat was never grounded as she went for the dive and is run out!

    West Indies are crumbling here.

  11. Umpire reviewpublished at 14.2 overs

    West Indies go for a risky second run and Chinelle Henry has to dive into her crease - but did she make it in time?

    The umpires sends it upstairs.

    This looked close.

    The impact was marginally in line! What a review.

    Impact in line and Hawkeye says the ball was going to clip the top off middle! Stafanie Taylor goes!

    What a huge over that is for India.

    My feeling is wrong... this doesn't seem quite right.

  15. India reviewpublished at 14 overs

    Deepti Sharma is convinced she has trapped Stafanie Taylor lbw as she steps across her stumps and looks to sweep into the on side.

    The umpire says no but India review.

    Breakthrough! A brilliant catch!

    It's been good from West Indies in the last few overs, they have really picked up and look ready to accelerate.

    That was a wonderous shot from Shemaine Campbelle!

  20. WI 75-1published at 13 overs

    Oof, that was brutally dismissive from Shemaine Campbelle as she smacks the ball cross-batted straight back past Pooja Vastrakar and away for four.

    Stafanie Taylor then attempts a huge heave into the on side but it is collected on the bounce by the fielder on the mid-wicket boundary and they can only run one.

    These batters are growing in confidence.
