India have won the toss and decided to bat first. #Edgbaston is absolutely packed for a fixture that does not happen all that frequently.

Pakistan seem to have opted to bowl first on the assumption that dew would make bowling in the evening/ night session more difficult, but dew has not been a factor in this match in the end.

Baig goes run out for 9, courtesy of a direct hit throw from Harmanpreet Kaur. Pakistan 158-9, need 90 more to win with numbers 10 and 11 coming together.

Baig will finish today with a higher batting average - she is now on 9 and was averaging just over 8 in ODIs when she came in.

Sneh Rana pretty much seals the deal by having Sidra Amin caught by Harmanpreet Kaur for 81 (106) to make it 150-8 in the 40th over, 98 still needed, and now only tail enders left (Diana Baig averages 8.39 over a long ODI career, and has been joined by Nashra Sandhu who averages 4.57 over a similar period).

Deepti Sharma bowls Rameen Shamim for a duck and it is 146-7 in the 39th over, 102 still needed. It was a tail enders dismissal, getting in a tangle.

Sneh Rana takes a return catch to dismiss Sidra Nawaz for 14 (22). Pakistan 143-6 after 38 overs, need 105 from the last 12. Sidra Amin is 76 not out, and it is now down to her as far as Pakistan are concerned.

Kranti Goud finishes with 10-3-20-3, an outstanding performance. Pakistan are 130-5 from 36 overs, needing 118 from the last 14 overs. Both Goud and Renuka Singh Thakur (0-29 from 10 overs) have bowled their full allocations, which means that Pakistan will be facing the less brilliant bowlers for the rest of the innings.

50 for Sidra Amin, the first 50 of the match, but whereas India had a lot of significant contributions Amin has been playing pretty much a lone hand for Pakistan.
