4.3 to S Mandhana, Another one sticks! This time at short third. Gaikwad moved to the right, took it and kept it in possession while falling into the ground. Was a 103ks full ball angling away. Mandhana stood still and looked to launch a drive down the ground, got a chunky outside edge. 39/3 Photos

1.4 to GM Harris, Ooh, great ball. Another confident lbw appeal. Given again! Review taken again! Inswinger landed on a length around fourth stump and came in with the angle. Middle and off stump visible as Harris strode leg side and looked to work it with a closed bat face. Hit on the back leg. Impact on middle, is this swinging too much as well? Almost, but no. Clipping leg stump and Harris walks back. 26/1 3.4 to D Hemalatha, Don't see these everyday! Hemalatha has pulled the ball very fine, Shivani - on debut - moves to the right, sticks out her right hand and the ball sticks in her palm. It was almost too casual but the coordination turned out to be on point. Was a short ball with the keeper up. Hemalatha was on one foot and swivelled for the pull/hook, the ball hit an edge high on the bat. 33/2 Photos

5.3 to GJ Naik, Hard not to give that out. Looked like middle of middle but it's been reviewed. Inswinger on a fullish length, went straight and beat Naik as she tried to punch it through mid-on. Bat coming leaning across in general. Her head falling over too. Hitting middle stump according to Hawk-Eye. Review burnt.. 43/4 19.2 to N de Klerk, Sliced to backward point! Devine wins this battle! Full outside off, de Klerk looks to swing it away leg side but gets a top edge from around the toe end of the bat. Gayakwad backtracks and makes no mistake. Well, de Klerk has still played a gem here!. 179/6 19.4 to RP Yadav, And now Radha picks out deep midwicket! On a length outside off, she clears her front leg and looks to go over cow corner, but doesn't get enough power to clear the fielder in the deep. Radha walks off having done an excellent rescue job for her team. 180/7 Photos
Georgia Wareham	4	0	35	1	8.75	8	0	0
16.3 to RM Ghosh, Finally a breakthrough! And it's massive, given the stage of the innings. This was floated full and drifting in to pitch on off. Ghosh shuffled across a little and looks to go down the ground. It goes high, but not far enough, and that's a simple catch for the Giants skipper. Ghosh misses out on a half-century but she's played a gem here. 148/5

6.5 to A Gardner, Edged cut to the keeper! Bell's height creating that extra bounce. Gardner was down and her weight was going forward. Tried to slap it hard through point. Was a wobble ball just outside off, easy catch Ghosh. 46/3 16.3 to BS Fulmali, Slower ball does the trick in the end for Lauren Bell! Back of a length outside off and it stays low. Fulmali adjusts and looks to smack it down the ground. Ends up hitting it high in the air. Grace Harris runs in from long-on and has to put in a small dive in front, and she holds on. Is that the game, then?. 139/7 16.5 to Shivani Singh, High in the air, and taken No mistake this time from Reddy and Bell picks up a third. Slower ball, full outside off. Shivani looks to hit this down the ground and slices it. Reddy runs across from mid-off and settles under it, making no mistake this time. A tough debut for Shivani Singh. 139/8 Photos

3.4 to SFM Devine, Sharp return catch! Devine made room and looked to flat bat it with muscle, ball sprung off the upper-half of the bat and came right at Reddy. She fell forward and kept the hands up while taking it. Huge wicket. 34/1 Photos
Shreyanka Patil	3.5	0	23	5	6.00	14	0	0
4.6 to BL Mooney, Big lbw appeal. Not given. Was a length ball that beat the flick and hit around leg stump. Didn't look out at first but RCB decide to review after a chat between bowler, captain and keeper. Replay shows Mooney covered all three stumps and looked to pick it up fine. But she is standing back. And Hawk-Eye shows it'd go onto hit leg stump! Shreyanka leaps in delight and gets a big high-five from the skip. 38/2 8.5 to KS Ahuja, Close call. Given! Ahuja reviews. Was a loopy fullish ball from around the wicket that landed around off and straightened. Ahuja tried to flick it leg side. Got beaten and hit on the back leg. Impact on middle and hitting middle. Plumb as it gets. 63/4 15.2 to KS Gautam, This time, it's taken. Grace Harris shows her team-mates how it's done! Good bowling from Shreyanka who gives this some air and goes full outside off. Kashvee got down on one knee and looked to slog it down the ground but doesn't get the requisite power. Harris takes it at about head height. A sigh of relief for Smriti Mandhana, and possibly Arundhati Reddy too!. 126/6 18.2 to TP Kanwar, Sliced high in the air, and taken. This time Mandhana takes the catch to redeem herself as Patil picks up her fourth! This is on a length outside off and angled across. Kanwar looks to reach out and get it over the infield, but ends up slicing it. Good showing from Kanwar, but this was always going to be too big a task. 148/9 18.5 to Renuka Singh, Shreyanka Patil has five and RCB have a hat-trick of wins! Reddy grabs the catch and immediately points to and runs towards Shreyanka. Renuka went for the big shot again and sent it straight up and Reddy ran across from mid-off to complete the win. Shreyanka's smile could not be wider right now as her team-mates mob her. And Smriti Mandhana could not be happier as RCB go back to the top of the table. 150/10 Photos

10.4 to G Wareham, Radha Yadav ain't doing nothing wrong today! This is short and Wareham looks to heave it away down the ground to deep midwicket's left. But Radha runs across and takes a good catch. A lot of her team-mates claim she's the best fielder in the side, and she's not letting that one go! The Giants are not standing so tall right now!. 70/5
