2.3 to BL Mooney, and here is another powerplay wicket! Length in the channel and this one jags back into Mooney. She is playing for the original line and tries to drive on the up. The inward movement takes it past the inside edge and the stumps are left in a mess. Massive wicket for Renuka, massive wicket for RCB!. 11/1 6.2 to P Litchfield, big appeal for a stumping! Length in the fifth stump channel outside off. Straightens against the angle and goes past the outside edge. Litchfield, trying to defend, over-stretches and loses her balance. Ghosh whipped off the bails but the question is whether she did it quickly enough. Ghosh is confident. And she has every reason to be that confident. Litchfield's back foot is just inches off the line (or perhaps just on the line), and RCB have their second!. 30/2 See all photos

10.2 to V Krishnamurthy, holes out to deep mid wicket! A bit of a drag-down on middle and leg, but such has been GG's plight this innings, that they cannot put it away. Veda hoicks at it off the back foot but all she does is pick out Wareham on the fence. Easiest of catches, and the pressure finally tells!. 45/3 16.1 to KE Bryce, goes right through her! Back of a length on middle and off. Keeps coming back in with the angle and seems to skid through too. Bryce is beaten for pace and by the time her bat comes down, the ball has hit the back thigh and crashed into the stumps! The Giants six down now!. 73/6 18.6 to S Rana, stumped by a country mile! Darted in on a back of a length on leg stump. Rana hares down without really looking at the length. Nowhere to the pitch and gets beaten for pace on the inside. Ghosh does the rest behind the stumps, and Rana's cameo comes to an end!. 98/7 See all photos

15.1 to A Gardner, goes straight up, and Gardner bites the dust! Dangles the carrot outside off and Gardner bites. Comes down the track, trying to smash it into next week. She is beaten in the flight, though, and gets nowhere close to the pitch of the ball. Goes through with the shot and spoons it miles up. Mandhana settles herself at extra cover and pouches it. The Giants slide further!. 70/5

3.2 to SFM Devine, Gardner breaks through! Short on middle and leg, and Devine cannot believe what she has done. She shaped to pull but could not keep it down. Hits it straight to Meghna at square leg, who dives forward and completes the catch! Devine is livid with herself, and it is understandable why!. 32/1

8.4 to S Mandhana, soft dismissal! Tossed up beautifully on a full length on off. Mandhana is beaten in the air and has to reach out in front of her pad. Cannot control it or keep it down and pops it straight back to Kanwar!. 72/2 See all photos
