Think we tried to do too much in this session run-wise and we have wasted wickets. Players are tired and it's hot. 7 degrees cooler tomorrow.

Seamer Kate Cross comes in to see England through to the close. She dislocated her thumb this morning, let's see if it affects her batting.
A lovely swinging delivery from Garth draws a shot from Cross, but she survives the over.

Five down before the end of the day! Brillant keeping from Healy, to still be in pain from the previous ball and then take a wicket is amazing.

Dunkley c Healy b Garth 16 (Eng 110-5)
A huge blow to England!
Alyssa Healy brings on seamer Kim Garth in search of a wicket just before the close. Her reward is to be rapped on the end of her fingers as she tries to collect a leg-side delivery.
But all is forgiven for the next ball as Garth finds Dunkley's edge and Healy gathers greedily. Her bowling change worked a treat.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialDunkley and Wyatt have put on a pretty decent partnership and it will be in the balance if they can both stay and come out tomorrow.

Four for Wyatt, hitting Gardner hard through point and the fielder can't cut it off.

Ecclestone 50 tomorrow to win it for England tomorrow and put the icing on the cake. You know it makes sense!

Tahlia McGrath enters the eighth over of her spell. Just the single for Wyatt, pushing back towards the bowler and running one.

Gardner is looking for that magic ball again, she knows there's something in this pitch. And the danger if it doesn't spin is that it's short and wide.

Danni Wyatt steps back and guides Ash Gardner's delivery for four runs through backward point.
She takes three more from the final delivery of the over, a push to third brings up England's century.
Eng 94-4published at 22 overs
A maiden over for McGrath to Sophia Dunkley.
After that flurry of wickets, the match is feeling a little becalmed as we approach the close of play.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialI think it's in Australia's favour, losing those four wickets changed it.
The good thing for England is that Alana King is not bowling.

A meaty edge from Sophia Dunkley gets her four from Ash Gardner down to third.

I have to say those lbw decisions show how much the game has changed due to technology, and also how the umpires giving the benefit of the doubt has regressed. In real time they looked dodgy at best, and while they were umpire's call, I thought they were poor decisions. That said, in a batter dominated era, perhaps there’s a little redressing of the balance going on.

Former Australia batter on BBC Test Match SpecialVery evenly balanced at the moment. I get the sense that people haven't backed England's ability to get themselves back into winning positions.
I'm worried about it. With the quality of the batters at the crease and still to come, you cannot write off England.
