14 off 6
Excellent over from debutant Heather Graham under pressure and India now need 14 off the final over. They have Richa Ghosh on strike. Can the teenager do it for India?

Deepti Sharma, OUT!
The hero from last match for India, Deepti Sharma has to go for 2 off 4. Tried to take on Heather Graham, seemed to have connected well too, but finds Alana King who takes a good catch under pressure in the deep.
IND: 170/5 (18.2)

18 off 12
Richa Ghosh is on song. Murders Ashleigh Gardner for twin sixes to put India right in control of this chase. The job is still not done though for the Indians.
IND: 170/4 (18)

32 needed off 18
Sutherland gifts a full toss to Richa Ghosh and the teenager sends it handsomely over the ropes straight down the ground. Smriti Mandhana approves the shot from the dug out. Ghosh has Deepti Sharma for company.
IND: 156/4 (17)
- 11 Dec 2022 4:22 PM GMT
MANDHANA, OUT!
Oh Mandhana, what have you done? She had just smashed Sutherland down the ground for a six, what was the necessity of this shot? Goes outside the off stump and tries to guide a short delivery over the fine leg. All she could do is glove it back into the stumps.
Australia all over India now.
IND: 148/4 (16.3)
- 11 Dec 2022 4:17 PM GMT
Harmanpreet, OUT!
Body blow for India as Graham scalps Harmanpreet Kaur. She is caught by Mooney for 21 off 22. Is this the turning point of this contest? Or can Mandhana carry the women in blue through?
IND: 142/3 (15.5)

61 needed off 36
A near-perfect over from Meghan Schutt ruined by Smriti Mandhana with a six and a four in the final two deliveries. The Indian vice-captain is on song, and the women in blue would believe they have got this under control.
61 more needed of 6 overs.
IND: 127/2 (14)

50* Smriti Mandhana
Yet another half century for Smriti Mandhana in a chase. Reaches there off 37 deliveries with a perfectly executed slog sweep against Alana King. Australia are feeling the heat now.
