Appeal goes round once again, but the umpire says nothing! Renuka Singh Thakur bowls fuller, pitching it outside off and shaping it in.

OUT! RUN OUT! Is it even India vs Pakistan if there is no controversy? Kranti Gaud bowls this full and on middle and leg, Muneeba Ali looks to clip it away but misses and gets hit on the pads as the ball rolls towards second slip. There is an appeal for LBW, but turned down. However, Deepti Sharma picks up the ball and hits the stumps at the batter's end. The third umpire has been called in to check the runout. The replay shows that Muneeba grounded her bat, but then, when the ball hits the stumps, she lifts her bat up. The third umpire looks at that 'OUT' flash on the big screen. Pakistan Women are not at all happy with that call. However, after all the drama, Ball Tracking comes up and shows three reds. So, she would have been out if India had taken the review. Pakistan Women lose their first!

They should have taken it this time as Ball Tracking after the over shows thrre reds on this one.

Extra bounce now! Hits the length hard, on leg, kicks off the surface, Muneeba Ali looks to keep it out, but gets surprised as the ball goes off her gloves towards square leg. A single taken.

A massive shout for caught behind, but the umpire says no! DRAMA on the first ball of the chase. Harmanpreet Kaur goes for the review here, and the India Women players look pretty confident here. Renuka Singh Thakur starts with a full delivery, on middle, shapes away sharply, Muneeba Ali looks to clip it away but gets a bit squared up. The ball goes past the outside edge and hits her pads before Richa Ghosh, the keeper, grabs it with a dive to her left.
