England Women vs Australia Women, 1st ODI Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Schutt to Kate Cross, out Bowled!! Cleaned up. Another leg-cutter, Cross sits low to slog-sweep and fails to connect the shot. You-Miss-I-Hit stuff. Kate Cross b Schutt 1(3)

Gardner to Ecclestone, out Caught by Beth Mooney!! Holes out to long-on. Didn't get elevation as she wanted to clear long-on and finds Mooney, who makes no mistake. Ecclestone c Beth Mooney b Gardner 27(27) [4s-5]

Gardner to Ecclestone, FOUR, slotted over cow corner. Ecclestone gets under this floater and adds another boundary

Delissa Kimmince to Ecclestone, FOUR, Ecclestone is playing a gem. Short outside off, smeared square past point

Delissa Kimmince to Ecclestone, FOUR, second four of the over. Nearly a half-volley at the stumps, Ecclestone stays leg-sidish and strokes it past the bowler

Delissa Kimmince to Ecclestone, FOUR, that's been smacked. Half-volley outside off, Ecclestone slaps it past mid-off

Gardner to Ecclestone, FOUR, lofted over mid-off. Ecclestone gets under this flighted delivery and takes the aerial route to pick up a boundary

Gardner to Ecclestone, no run, in the air and dropped. Flighted outside off, Ecclestone lofts it airly and goes straight to mid-off where the fielder gets both hands and spills it

Jonassen to Sciver, out Lbw!! How many lbws have we seen today? The umpires have been kept on their toes, nonetheless Sciver's vigil comes to an end. One shot too many, you could say as already two fours had come off the over. Sciver wanted more and went down to sweep, completely gets deceived by the quicker delivery. Gets rapped on the pads, dead in front of middle. Jonassen has the last laugh. Sciver lbw b Jonassen 64(95) [4s-6]

Jonassen to Sciver, FOUR, drilled! Sciver has started to accelerate. Skips down the pitch, gets to the pitch and converts it into the half-volley to slam it past mid-on

Jonassen to Sciver, FOUR, smart from Sciver. Rolls her wrists and places the sweep very fine

Georgia Wareham to Marsh, FOUR, cut nicely in the gap, third man is in, so Marsh delayed the shot to get the placement to the left of backward point

Georgia Wareham to Sciver, FOUR, shortish delivery outside off stump, Sciver punches it to deep cover, fifty for Sciver. A fine innings under pressure. Good round of applause and she raises the bat to acknowledge

Gardner to Shrubsole, out Caught by Haynes!! Oh what a stunner from Haynes at mid-off. She leaped and caught this with her left hand. Shrubsole can't believe it's been taken. Flighted delivery outside off stump, Shrubsole tries to loft, doesn't get the connection exactly right, the fielder moved a step back and then jumped to pluck it. Shrubsole c Haynes b Gardner 2(9)

Delissa Kimmince to Brunt, out Lbw!! As soon as Healy went "Yeaaaahhhh" in her appeal, the umpire made his verdict. Short of a length delivery angled, didn't bounce as much as Brunt thought. She tried to pull the ball through mid-wicket, was beaten and the impact was in line with middle and leg on the back leg. Brunt lbw b Delissa Kimmince 20(49) [4s-2]

Delissa Kimmince to Brunt, FOUR, swinging down the leg-side, Brunt seemed to have missed the glance, oh she might have got a faint tickle there, tough for Healy to collect those

Perry to Sciver, FOUR, edged and just wide of the diving Healy. Sciver tried to defend this good length delivery off the back foot, the ball moved away off the seam, took the edge, the ball was dying on the keeper, who dived low to her right attempting a catch

Perry to Brunt, FOUR, oh that is a commanding hit from Brunt. No pacer likes when a batter runs down the pitch and smacks a boundary. Expect an angry reply from Perry. This was a shortish delivery, Brunt pulled that powerfully through mid-wicket

Georgia Wareham to Sciver, FOUR, superb shot from Sciver! Slightly short outside off, Sciver treks back and crunches it through extra cover

Jonassen to Fran Wilson, out Lbw!! Jonassen strikes! England lose half their side now. Oh, but wait! Wilson thinks she's got some glove on it but the umpire thought otherwise and lifted his finger. Quicker on middle, Wilson went low to sweep and seemed to have got some glove on it before it hit her pads. She signals to the ump but there are no reviews. The partnership that was gathering some steam for England has been broken. Yes, replays confirm that it's hit the glove first. Poor Wilson.. Fran Wilson lbw b Jonassen 15(21) [4s-3]

Perry to Fran Wilson, FOUR, the counter-attack is on! Appalling short delivery outside off, Wilson hopes across and lifts it over the in-field on the off-side

Perry to Fran Wilson, FOUR, creamed to extra cover. Wilson shifts her weight forward and connects it off the meat

Schutt to Sciver, FOUR, first four for Sciver. Schutt has been all over the place this over. Banged in short without any intent and Sciver hammers it past mid-on

Perry to Fran Wilson, FOUR, slashed with disdain. This should lift some spirits in the England camp. Too short and wide of off, Wilson reaches out and slaps it past cover

Perry to Knight, out Lbw!! That's plumb and up goes the finger. Third wicket for Perry. First ball duck for Knight. It was the indipper, Knight walked across her stumps aiming to work it to the on-side and didn't expect it to come back in. Plays all around it and gets struck in-line with the stumps. HawkEye shows that it's hitting the middle-pole. The procession continues and it's 19/4. Phew! Can Perry claim a hat-trick here? Knight lbw b Perry 0(1)

Schutt to Taylor, out Bowled!! Oh, the stumps are disturbed again. What's going on? England in serious trouble now as the experienced Taylor walks back to the hut. Two wickets in two balls for Australia. It was the inswinger from Schutt, Taylor didn't read it and it kept snaking in sharply to beat her defences and shatters the stumps. What a start this for Australia. Taylor b Schutt 1(9)

Perry to Beaumont, out Bowled!! Chopped on! Extra bounce doing the trick for Perry as she redeems herself with a prized scalp of Beaumont. Both openers dismissed for England and Beaumont looks disappointed. She got herself into a tangle and went for the cut, gets tucked for space and gets a thick inside edge which rolls back onto the stumps. Beaumont b Perry 16(13) [4s-3]

Perry to Beaumont, FOUR, cracked past point. Short and asking for trouble, Beaumont gets deep and nails it off the middle

Perry to Beaumont, FOUR, half-volley outside off and Beaumont duly dispatches it from her presence. Smashes the drive beautifully through extra cover

Perry to Jones, out Caught by Alyssa Healy!! Perry's short balls are mostly on target and Jones tries to pull but gets rushed by the pace and bounce. Splices it up in the air and the keeper calls for it, takes a few steps to her left and nestles it in her glove. Early strike for Australia as Jones doesn't trouble the scorers. Jones c Alyssa Healy b Perry 0(3)

Schutt to Beaumont, FOUR, Amazing start for England and Beaumont. Banana swing for Schutt, unfortunately ends up too full and straight. Whipped past mid-on
