lofted over cover for six! What a way to win it! Full outside off, but in the slot, she lofted this powerfully through the line up and over cover and it carries all the way. Sensational shot to finish it

India win by five wickets with three balls to spare. Brilliant from Harmanpreet Kaur. Kept her cool and closed it out. England will rue the dropped catch and wides in the penultimate over.
Heather Knight is the player of the match for her 67 off 44 and 1 for 20 off three. Knight: "I rode my luck a bit. The wicket did dry out and get better. There's loads of things we can improve and get better for tomorrow."
Harmanpreet Kaur: "We were really happy with the support and happy we could do that. I'm really happy that our young players could play with freedom. We have to work hard on our fielding. We need to improve."
Praveen: "Harman doing it in true Dhoni fashion. Keeping cool, taking it deep till the last over, and finishing off with a six!"
Sandip Poudel: "Catches do win matches !! That dropped catch in 19th over literally turn around match's perspective. "
That concludes our coverage from Canberra. Join us again tomorrow as England takes on Australia.

Nat Sciver-Brunt to Kaur, 2 runs
slower ball on off, she lofts this high inside out over cover and it just clears the fielder running back! They get back for two this time
Kabir : "@ Reju- don't have a decent WK batswoman, batting is top-heavy & bowling resources are weak- no doubt - these girls are below Aussies, English & maybe Kiwis- though they have brilliant individual talents-which does give them outside chance/ dark horse but not the favourites to lift the title- maybe 2-4 years down they would be the force like men counterparts."

guided past short third man! Great skill. Back of a length outside off, she backed away, opened the face and guides it in the air past short third man. It wasn't far away but it was flying.
