Gardner finishes it with a thumping four which takes her to 104* and Australia to 248-4. The stand is worth an unbroken 180, and Australia have won with 9.3 overs to spare as well as those six wickets. Sutherland at the other end 98*, and she will probably be Player of the Match having also bowled very well.

A two and a one to start the over, making Sutherland 98* but putting Gardner on strike with scores level. Gardner can deliberately block the remaining four balls of this over if she wants.

Beth Mooney goes, playing a forceful pull off Ecclestone but sending the ball too close to Natalie Sciver-Brunt who holds a fine catch. Mooney out for 20 (30) and Austra;ia are 68-4 in the 16th over, need a further 177 for victory.
