    Amy Hunter knows that in the last over, Ryana MacDonald-Gay would a fuller length and, with the keeper up to the stumps, using her feet is a bit risky but it was nicely played.

  2. Ire 124-4published at 34 overs

    Amy Hunter uses his feet to Ryana MacDonald-Gay again and heaves the England seamer for four through cow corner.

    Plenty of bottom hand in that as Hunter bids to reignite Ireland's innings.

  3. Ire 117-4published at 33 overs

    Charlie Dean rattles through another over of spin. Two singles and a wide from it.

    That boundary from Amy Hunter proved to be a false dawn.

    The crowd go wild here at Derby for the fifth four of the innings!

    It's a really good shot from Amy Hunter, using her feet well. We need much, much, much more of that from Ireland.

    That's the kind of shot Ireland need more of!

  6. Ire 114-4published at 32 overs

    Amy Hunter skips down the pitch to the final ball of the over and drills Ryana MacDonald-Gay through the covers for four.

    Nicely played.

    Missing leg stump is the verdict of the ball-tracking technology.

    As you were.

    No bat involved.

    I think it is potentially going down leg. But why not go for it? They've got two reviews to use.

  10. England reviewpublished at 31.5 overs

    Ryana Mac-Donald-Gay is tossed the ball by Charlie Dean as the England skipper bids to inject a bit of life into the attack with Ireland largely comfortable against spin.

    She hits Amy Hunter high on the leg, spins on her heels and appeals. Given not out. This looks high, but Dean opts to review,

  11. Ire 108-4published at 31 overs

    A bit more intent from Ireland.

    Leah Paul and Amy Hunter prod and poke Charlie Dean into the gaps as they farm the strike.

    Paul sweeps the final ball of Dean's over but there's not quite enough on it for the ball to reach the boundary.

  12. Ire 101-4published at 30 overs

    Tight stuff from Mady Villiers. Leah Paul manages just a single off the over.

    Something has got to give here you sense.

    Ireland's dot ball percentage is now at 62%.

  14. Ire 100-4published at 29 overs

    Charlie Dean is breezily through another tight over of off-spin. The England skipper, however, tears the knee on her trousers with a diving stop off her own bowling.

    Ireland into three figures.

    When you're up against a good side, they're not going to give you too many loose balls so Ireland need to create a few of their own to put pressure on England.

  16. Ire 95-4published at 28 overs

    Amy Hunter bottom hands a biff down the ground off Mady Villiers and the England spinner dives to her right but cannot quite get a hand on it.

    The final ball of the over, Hunter has a bit of wild swish to one given a bit of air. Did Hunter edge that? UltraEdge says yes. However, Alice Capsey is unable to cling on to it.

    That was a very tough chance, though.

  17. Ire 92-4published at 27 overs

    Dani Gibson bustles in.

    Leah Paul and Amy Hunter play rather conservatively as they work the ball into the gaps.

    Rufus Bullough
    CricViz analyst

    Maddy Villiers is finding a huge amount of movement both in the air and off the pitch today. A combined 5.8° of drift and spin for the off-spinner, compared to 3.0° for Dean and 3.3° for Corteen-Coleman.

  19. Ire 89-4published at 26 overs

    The left-handed Leah Paul and Amy Hunter content to nudge Mady Villiers around for three singles. Project rebuild for Ireland now.

    Thanks, Sam.

    Ireland are heavy reliant on their top order so a lot rests on the shoulders of Amy Hunter here.
