Amelia Kerr to Niki Prasad
Beautiful piece of bowling from Amelia Kerr! Flighted full around off, dips on the batter and turns away to go past the outside edge. Yastika Bhatia collects it to her right and knocks the bails off. The third umpire is summoned for a stumping check but Niki Prasad never left her crease.

Shabnim Ismail to Niki Prasad
An optimistic shout for LBW but there was a woody sound and Shabnim bails out of the appeal! Pace taken off, on a fullish length, on off, Niki walks inside the line for the scoop but she fails to read the change of pace. She is early into the shot and gets it off the toe end. The keeper Yastika Bhatia does well to cut it off with a dive to her right. Just 2 runs off the over so far.
