    Those boundaries is exactly what England will want going into lunch, they wouldn't want to lose a wicket here.

    I think the decision to delay that new ball a bit more seems like a smart decision from Australia.

    Not yet, is the answer. Alana King's leggies are given an outing with the older ball as the clock ticks closer to the lunch break.

    King's second ball spins to beat Tammy Beaumont's outside edge and the England batter responds with a lap for a couple and then a sweep for four.

    A low full toss from the final ball of a tight over from Tahlia McGrath but Sophia Dunkley is unable to fully capitalise on it and whacks is straight to a fielder.

    Australia's players haven't used a Dukes ball and don't know how it performs. Considering that, I think they have done well.

    Sophia Dunkley starting to look a little bit more confident hitting down the ground against Ash Gardner's off spin as she and Tammy Beaumont rotate the strike.

    It's an interesting time for Dunkley here as the new ball is just around the corner so she will want to get comfortable in the crease.

    Sopha Dunkley a little bit more comfortable against the meds of Tahlia McGrath as he works her fourth ball off the pads, and drives the final ball of the over straight down the ground.

    Three overs to the new ball is available for Australia.

    I'd love Ash Gardner to take the pace off and tempt Beaumont to go down the ground.

    The spin of Ash Gardner has looked threatening for Australia in the morning session, and here's how got the key wicket of Nat Sciver-Brunt a little while ago.

    Dunkley will have be relieved, Ash Gardner was bowling some beauties. She used her feet and was able to relieve some of her frustration.

    A tentative start by Dunkley with just under half an hour until lunch. Plenty of chat coming from the Australian fielders.

    Sophia Dunkley, capable of some expansive strokeplay, is curbing her natural instincts early in her innings. She is happy to see off five balls from Tahlia McGrath without scoring.
