    WICKET

    Litchfield lbw b Matthews 4 (Aus 43-2)

    Well, what do I know?

  2. It doesn't fill me with confidence that all the fielders have gone back to their positions before the replay has even reached the big screen...

  3. West Indies review

    Now then...

    Phoebe Litchfield misses a reverse sweep and Matthews wants a second look.

  4. Here comes Hayley Matthews to try and produce some magic for West Indies.

    She's their leading wicket-taker so far, with nine.

  5. Aus 39-1

    Target 126

    England have still got to beat South Africa first, Saj!

    I think England will give Australia a good match, but they still look too good for us as well.

    This is just too easy for Beth Mooney.

  8. Aus 37-1

    Target 126

    Pure class from Beth Mooney.

    Karishma Ramharack is greeted by two boundaries in her first three balls.

    Two glorious shots through the covers and Australia are flying.

  9. How's stat?!

    They may have lost a wicket, but Australia have been excellent in these opening overs. Their false shot percentage (5%) is miles below West Indies' 26% at the same stage today

    Slower ball yorker from Chinelle Henry. Not sure it was meant to be, but it just dipped on Georgia Voll at the last minute.

    But she has set the tone at the top of the order.

    WICKET

    Voll b Henry 16 (Aus 29-1)

    Hang on. Georgia Voll is not content with two boundaries in the over and swings again. This one is a clever slower ball from Chinelle Henry, however, and it yorks the Australia opener.

  12. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on Test Match Special

    Just stand and deliver. A beautiful shot from Georgia Voll. It's not even a bad ball. Just a brilliant shot.

  13. Aus 25-0

    Dismissive.

    A scoop for four by Georgia Voll is followed by an almighty biff down the ground to continue the flow of Australian runs.

    I fear Michael may be right on the first part of his text at least.

    It will take a miracle for Australia not to win this and the final.

  15. Aus 18-0

    Target 126

    West Indies coach Shane Dietz was chatting to TV during the interval. He confirmed Deandra Dottin had a medical issue before play.

    Former England bowler on Test Match Special

    It's really nicely played by Beth Mooney. A little tickle around the corner.

  17. Aus 16-0

    Problems already for West Indies. Beth Mooney calmly collects her first four and then takes three down to fine leg.

  18. Hayley Matthews is giving herself the second over. If you need a job doing...

  19. Geoff Lemon
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Sounds

    That's what Qiana Joseph wanted to do during West Indies' powerplay and couldn't get on to one.

    It's possible.

    Georgia Voll picks up the length so quickly from Chinelle Henry and sends the ball flying into the crowd.
