.
Shorter in length and outside off, Harshitha Madhavi backs away and hits it away towards point.
4.3
.
Oh, big swing across the line from Harshitha Madhavi and she almost gets cleaned up here. Megan Schutt pitches the ball up on off and middle, getting it to just angle in a bit, Madhavi swings across the line but the ball goes inches over the stumps.
4.2
.
Changes the angle of attack by coming around the stumps and darts the ball back into middle, Madhavi stays leg side of the ball and pushes it out on the off side.
4.1
.
Pitches it up around leg and gets it to angle across towards off and middle, Harshitha Madhavi plays it on the up and towards covers.

Ash Gardner 2/1(2)
3.6
1
Floated, full and around off, driven away past the diving fielder at covers for a single by Madhavi.
3.5
.
Madhavi is taken completely aback there. Ash Gardner tosses it up and ends up serving a juicy full toss, Harshitha Madhavi ends up in an awkward position and just about manages to keep it out on the leg side.
3.4
.
Slows it up and flights it onto middle and leg, Harshitha Madhavi watches it well and defends it out with soft hands.
3.3

Dropped short on the pads, Kaveesha Dilhari turns it off the hips and wide of backward square leg for a single. Off the mark right away.
Kaveesha Dilhari is the next batter in.
OUT! LBW! Another huge appeal for LBW but this time it is turned down by the umpire. Ash Gardner goes straight to her captain and Alyssa Healy opts for the review. This is a tossed-up delivery, drifted onto middle and leg, Chamari Athapaththu goes down for the sweep and misses, getting hit on the pads. Nothing on UltraEdge and the main question is whether the ball went with the arm or spun away. Ball Tracking shows that the ball hit the back pad and it would have hit the leg stump. The original decision is overturned and both Lankan openers are now back in the hut.

Tossed up around off, hint of turn away from the left-hander, Athapaththu watches it well and blocks it to the off side.
Harshitha Madhavi is in at number 3.

Megan Schutt 5/1(2)
OUT! LBW! A huge appeal for LBW and the finger is raised. Vishmi Gunarathne reviews it pretty quickly though and the third umpire is called into action. Megan Schutt bowls this one on a good length and outside off, darting it back in towards the stumps, Vishmi just looks to get inside the line and flick it away but is caught on the crease and is pinged on the pads. The replays roll in and no bat involved. Ball Tracking comes up with three reds and young Vishmi has to walk back for a duck. Sri Lanka Women 6/1 after 3 overs.

Bowled full and straight at the stumps, Vishmi Gunarathne drives it on the up but straight to mid on.

Nice change-up from Megan! Slower one, floated up full and wide, this one goes away from the right-hander. Another no ball called as Megan has overstepped once again, cardinal sin. Vishmi Gunarathne will have another chance at the Free Hit.

No ball! This is fuller and around off, Athapaththu drives it away through the cover region for a single. There is a late call for no ball as Megan Schutt has overstepped and a Free Hit will now follow...
