4.4 to S Luus, Luus plays on, SA three down! Bell gets among the poles now. Full length, this curls back in to smash off stump! She can still get the inswinger going when needed. Just did enough, Luus flat-footed in the crease looking to drive, and now has to walk. 17/3 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 2 | 7 | 3 | 1.75 | 22 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
1.2 to L Wolvaardt, clipped straight back, Smith strikes second ball! Just enough hold as Wolvaardt plays across it, looking to drive down the ground. Pops off a leading edge and it's a simple return catch for Smith. England cock-a-hoop at dismissing SA's captain early doors. 9/1 3.1 to T Brits, leg stump flattened! Smith has taken out both openers in the space of six balls. Drifting in with the angle from round the wicket, skips through the gate... and bosh! Smith right on the money in her first ODI World Cup outing. 12/2 5.1 to M Kapp, straight through, Smith bags another! Linsey doing it for funsies in Guwahati! Kapp props forward in defence but, like Brits, is completely kippered by the drift. Whispers past the inside edge and rattles into middle stump. SA's top order in tatters. 19/4 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 1 | 5 | 2 | 1.66 | 14 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | |
8.1 to A Bosch, pinned in front! Bosch is trapped walking across by one that stays a touch low. Up goes the finger and it's so plumb that there's no review. Hit on the knee rolls in front of middle and leg, looked a pretty straightforward decision. Everything going for England so far today. 31/5 10.1 to CL Tryon, another one rides the bus! SA six down, one ball out of the powerplay. NSB gets a second and Tryon is the latest to trudge off without much troubling the scorers. Skiddy length, she tries to turn it leg side, gets a big leading edge - and Capsey claims the catch above her head at mid-on. 38/6 | ||||||||||
| 6 | 2 | 19 | 2 | 3.16 | 25 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | |
13.1 to N de Klerk, big drive... and snaffled at slip! Knight holds on to a sharp catch at shoulder height, and Ecclestone is on the board, too. This was more about the turn, enticing the drive and then straightening down the line as de Klerk threw the hands. Thick-edged and taken, a seventh batter out in single-figures. 48/7 17.3 to S Jafta, off stump pegged back, and South Africa are nine down, and falling like nine pins! This is a touch slower, slanting into off stump. Jafta hares down the track, trying to demolish this over the bowler's head. Does not get to the pitch of the ball, though, meaning that she has to then have a cross-batted waft at it. Misses the ball completely and hears the death rattle soon after!. 60/9 | ||||||||||
| 3.4 | 0 | 14 | 2 | 3.81 | 15 | 2 | 0 | 1 | 0 | |
16.5 to M Klaas, there goes number eight! Fizzed through on a length in and around off stump. This seems to just hold its line and that does the trick for Dean. Klaas is playing for the turn and has not gotten a great stride forward either. Dangles her bat at it in hope, and sees the ball breeze past before thudding into off stump!. 60/8 20.4 to N Mlaba, off stump flattened, and Dean finishes it off! South Africa have been rolled over for 69, and this is their second-lowest score in the Women's World Cup! Their previous second-lowest total in a Women's World Cup was also against England, and this was a performance eerily similar of what unfolded in Cuttack back in 2013. Mlaba looks to chance her luck and has a slog at this length ball angling into off stump. Only connects with fresh air and loses her off stump moments later. England are chuffed, and they are thrilled to bits. South Africa, well, not quite!. 69/10 | ||||||||||
