full just outside off stump, and she tries to paddle sweep. But she misses, and Taniya removes the bails to signify the end of the game. India win by 52 runs and qualify into the semi-finals!
IND Women vs IRE Women, 13th Match, Group B at Providence, T20 World Cup, Nov 15 2018 - Match Result
2.25pm That's all from us at ESPNcricinfo. Don't forget to join us for the day's second game - between Pakistan and New Zealand - in a little while! See you soon.
2.15pm Harmanpreet Kaur: "Happy to qualify into the semis. But a lot of areas to improve. It'a a short format, so sometimes when your main bowler doesn't bowl according to plan, so you need other bowlers to bowl. That's why Jemmy and I bowled today. To win the WT20, we need to be aggressive in the field. And today, we didn't bat according to our plans. Same with the bowlers, so need to improve in those areas. Against Australia, we need to be aggressive. If you want to win against them, you need to be aggressive.
Laura Delany: "Delighted with how we approached the game. We were superb in the first innings. To restrict them to 145 when they scored 195 against NZ is a big achievement. We were much sharper in the field today. Our batting has been exposed to better bowling attacks, and we're still trying to find the right balance with the batting order. We're pretty taken aback in this tournament. Players from other countries have been very supportive."
Mithali Raj is the Player of the Match "I'm sure my knee will get better," she says. "Today the wicket was quite challenging. The pitch was soft. And playing slower bowlers was difficult, but the partnership with Smriti was crucial. Hopefully we can get a better pitch next game. When someone (Smriti) is going through a lean patch, you need to give them positivity. This team has definitely improved since the last world cup. They're ready to put in the effort, and the way we've started off.. it's been incredible. And I want this team to play the finals. When we bat, we try and innovate to suit our format."
good length outside off, and cut off the back foot to point. Raack scampers across to get off the mark
full outside off stump, and spinning away once again. Raack looks to cut, but misses
good length outside off stump, and the ball stays low as it turns away. She misses the cut and Taniya must bend to collect the ball
full outside leg stump, and she tries to reverse paddle. But she misses the shot, and therefore it's not called a wide
Final over.
another stumping! This is definitely the third one for Taniya. Full ball just outside off. She comes down the wicket to try and lift it over Radha, but the ball goes past her outside edge and Taniya was waiting to pounce on it
full on middle stump, and nudged off the back foot to square leg. Richardson's not looking at the fielder, and she's going for the second. Waldron isn't even thinking of a second, and that means Richardson is stranded halfway. Hemalatha aims at the keeper's end, and Taniya whips the bails off in a flash
that's her third stumping! But the stumping won't count since the ball grazed the stumps before it went into her gloves. Will go down as a 'bowled' on the stats column. It was a full ball on middle, that teasingly turned away from the batsman as she came down the wicket. A classical legbreak delivery to prise out another wicket
good length outside off stump. She gets down on one knee to try and slog, but she misses the shot, and the keeper loses sight of it as well. Hits her body and dribbles away to short third man
Ayush Kumar: "17.4..if edged, how its not out??" -- Hit the keeper's gloves, but it wasn't taken
length ball just outside off, and she muscles a pull to deep midwicket for a couple
good length outside off stump, and cut off the back foot to deep point
Stat: Deepti Sharma had earned India's first successful review at the 2017 World Cup. And she's done the same here in the 2018 World T20 as well. It was Sciver who was the victim in England, and it was Kavanagh here in Providence
length ball just outside off, and worked off her pads to deep midwicket
length ball just outside off, and punched to cover off the back foot
good length outside off stump. Looks to paddle this too, but edges the shot into the keeper's gloves
holes out! Full outside off stump, and she shuffles across to try and paddle this over the leg side. But it's nowhere close to perfectly timed, and Harmanpreet collects another wicket
full on leg, and skidding through. Nudged off her pads to the leg side
full just outside off stump, and swept off the back foot to deep backward square
good length outside off, and the offbreak is inside-edged onto her pads while trying to cut
big appeal for lbw, but not given! Should India review? And they are! Length ball outside off, and skidding into her pads. Impact is near off stump, so surely this will be close. UltraEdge says there's no bat. What does ball-tracking say? It says...OUT! This would've clipped leg stump. The umpire must change his decision.
