Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialJess Jonassen is under a little bit of pressure today because she hasn't played in the last couple of games so Georgia Wareham and Alana King could play together.
Ind 59-3published at 6 overs
Powerplay done. If this partnership could stick around...
Something is brewing.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialWhat a shot that is! No fear from the India captain. If there was ever a time India needed her it is now.
Ind 57-3published at 5.4 overs
Whack!
Harmanpreet Kaur skips down the pitch and lofts Jess Jonassen over the leg side for a maximum. The crowd are with India now, they're starting to properly accelerate.

Speaking of wickets, here's a replay of India's first.

India are racing ahead of Australia, but are the wickets lost going to be an issue?

Target 173
Back to spin and yet another wide. Jess Jonassen is the latest to struggle to find her line.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialIt is so frustrating because India are up with the run-rate, it is just the wickets, isn't it?

Jemimah 16, Kaur 11
Perry gets out of her over with a dot, 14 from her eight-ball set.
India are up with the rate. If these two can just stick around and build something, you never know...

You just wonder if she is the right person for this moment.
Ind 45-3published at 4.3 overs
Another extra from Perry, this time she fires in a wide. It's been a sloppy game with the ball from both sides.
Next delivery and Perry bowls it on Kaur's legs but the batter is wise to it and flicks it fine for four.

India are just about still in this.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialIt has been a really messy game.
Ind 35-3published at 4 overs
Change of bowler and Ellyse Perry starts with a no-ball. We'll have a free hit.

Australia posted a mammoth 172-4. Beth Mooney was a big reason for that huge score.
Ind 33-3published at 4 overs
Shot! Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, in at five, starts with a cracking cover drive to the ropes.
Still, with these early wickets I'd rather be in Australia's camp.

Harsh words from Hartley (as per) but she's spot on!
