an enormous caught-behind appeal by Bhatia and Matthews, and Bhatia then takes off the bails to appeal for the stumping too, all while Matthews signals to her captain tor review - this is a frantic, frantic finish! Fired in on a length outside off. Mishra, rather ambitiously, looks for the reverse lap and seems to miss it completely. The ball may have brushed the pad, which might have caused the sound. UltraEdge indicates as much, and there is no bat involved. So Mishra will not be out caught-behind. And there is no merit in the stumping appeal either. Mishra survives, but GG can no longer win this game, unless there are extras!

in the air but it falls safe! Darted in on a length on the stumps. Meghna swings like a rusty gate and cloths it on the bounce to long on

floated up full outside off. Mishra reaches out for it and drags it towards deep mid wicket. There is confusion among the batters and eventually, they decide against the second. A real scramble

inside edge onto the stumps and Matthews has come up clutch like she has done so many times in her career before! Fizzed in on a back of a length on middle and off. Simran charges down the track and then swings for the hills. Loses her shape completely and the ball trickles off the bottom-edge into the stumps. A head-in-hands moment for Simran, who trudges off; Matthews, meanwhile, a picture of calmness!

a massive miscue, and Matthews puts it down, but MI get a run-out somehow - it is all happening at the Brabourne Stadium! Back of a length just outside off. Simran gives herself room and tries to tonk it into tomorrow. Only gets distance and Matthews tries to settle under it to the right of the stumps at the bowler's end. She makes a mess of the catch and does not even get her hands to it. GG sense this as a chance to sneak in a second but Matthews holds her nerve enough to relay the throw to the bowler's end. Amanjot does the rest, and Kanwar is caught short trying to smuggle a second!

you have got to be kidding me! Slower ball in the slot. Kanwar backs away and drills it to mid off. Ismail, for some reason, hurls it at the keeper's end, where there is no one to collect. GG get another run and that means Simran is back on strike too

oh dear! Slides this down leg and Kanwar, having moved across to lap it, misses. Called a wide and no real complains from MI

straight back at NSB, who cannot hold on! Cutter on a back of a length outside off. Simran slams it back at the bowler, who does well to get behind it. Will go down as a chance but a very tough one
