Thoughts?

Punam Raut walks after been given not out. This is harmful, because

1. It is disrespectful towards the umpire.

2. It is selfish in a team game (I wish they drop her and mention this as official cause).

3. It will reignite that nauseatingly replusive phrase, Spirit of Cricket.

Scenes from the ground!

There would be a lot more positivity in the world if we were all blessed with the Queenslanders’ optimism over their weather. Their collective reaction to these scary scenes at the Metricon Stadium is, “it’ll blow over mate. Look it already is.” Amazing #AUSvIND pic.twitter.com/NPUY1Skii1

Would you have walked if you were in Raut's place?

ICYMI: A caught-behind appeal was declared Not Out by the umpire, but Punam Raut opted to walk. #AUSvIND #TeamIndiapic.twitter.com/6xrofu5AVs

They do say strange things happen under lights in a #PinkBallTest. And this bizarre thunderstorm just turned into a hailstorm #AUSvIND pic.twitter.com/A6KYEY5Z2C

Update!

Bummer. Another flash of lightning in the area means we're off for now #AUSvIND #PinkBallTest

13:55 (IST)

Alright the covers are coming back on as the lightning is around the area the game is being played in and we have the first interruption of the day.  

13:52 (IST)

After 101 overs,India Women 276/5 ( Deepti Sharma 12 , Taniya Bhatia (W) 0)

Molinuex continues. Fine over from her. She is keeping it tight to the new batter Bhatia. Just one off it. India need to decide how they are going to approach the innings from here.

13:49 (IST)

After 100 overs,India Women 275/5 ( Deepti Sharma 11 , Taniya Bhatia (W) 0)

McGrath continues. Good over as Aussies again pull back things. Just one off it. Bhatia will take her time to settle in. 

13:45 (IST)

After 99 overs,India Women 274/5 ( Deepti Sharma 10 , Taniya Bhatia (W) 0)

Mithali is gone and this is just not what India wanted. India have lost half of their side now. Taniya Bhatia is the new batter in. Two close in fielders placed for her. Good over for Australia. 

13:39 (IST)

OUT! Mithali Raj is gone. What an embarrassing way to get out. Run out for30. Mithali taps it to the leg side and calls for a single, there was never a run there, Sutherland picks it from mid-wicket and fires it to the striker's end to finish her innings. Mithali run out (Sutherland) 30(86)

13:37 (IST)

After 98 overs,India Women 274/4 ( Mithali Raj (C) 30 , Deepti Sharma 10)

McGrath continues. Lights in full effect now. India have done well to evade the twilight period. Maiden for McGrath, her third in this innings. 

13:34 (IST)

After 97 overs,India Women 274/4 ( Mithali Raj (C) 30 , Deepti Sharma 10)

Molineux into the attack. Perry gets a break after she delivers a wicket. Starts off with a boundary as Deepti sweeps it fine for four runs. There was a chance for Mithali to cut it away for four but she hit straight to the fielder at backward point. Five off the over.

13:31 (IST)

After 96 overs,India Women 269/4 ( Mithali Raj (C) 30 , Deepti Sharma 5)

McGrath finishes another one. Good positive start from Deepti. Mithali takes a single off the last ball. Deepti tucked one to the leg side and wanted a double, Mithali refused and rightly so. Two off the over.

13:29 (IST)

Mandhana must frame this for her living room wall!

Fantastic knock @mandhana_smriti!

Many congratulations on scoring your first Test hundred.

Keep scoring and inspiring! 👏🏻#PinkBallTest #AUSvIND pic.twitter.com/EmwI7ds66O

High praise for Mandhana!

Highest score by a visiting woman in Tests played in Australia.
A first Test hundred to remember for @mandhana_smriti , first of many more to come.
Best wishes to the @BCCIWomen

13:27 (IST)

After 95 overs,India Women 267/4 ( Mithali Raj (C) 29 , Deepti Sharma 4)

Perry continues. Deepti gets off the mark with a nice shot off a full toss through backward point for a boundary. That's that from the over.  

13:23 (IST)

After 94 overs,India Women 263/4 ( Mithali Raj (C) 29 , Deepti Sharma 0)

Tahlia McGrath is back into the attack, looking for a wicket. Good start in a new spell. Just two off the over. Deepti new at the crease so the bowlers should be looking to bowl more at her.

13:19 (IST)

After 93 overs,India Women 261/4 ( Mithali Raj (C) 27 , Deepti Sharma 0)

Perry continues. Mooney with a stunning catch, removed Yastika Bhatia who was beginning to look very good. Wicket just at the right time for Aussies. Mooney must be happy as she had dropped Mithali not a long back. Perry gets her first wicket as well. Deepti Sharma, left handed bat, comes to the crease. Just one off the over and a wicket.

13:17 (IST)

OUT! And finally Mooney holds on to one. Brilliant catch in gully. Perry gets her reward. Fuller in length, Bhatia wanted to play with a closed face of the bat, the ball took the leading edge and carried to Mooney who took a nice low catch. Yastika Bhatia c Mooney b Perry 19(40)

13:13 (IST)

After 92 overs,India Women 260/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 26 , Yastika Bhatia 19)

Brown continues. Two singles in the over and a wide outside off stump. India scoring at a good rate after the dinner break. Need to carry this momentum.

13:09 (IST)

After 91 overs,India Women 257/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 25 , Yastika Bhatia 18)

Perry continues. The ball hits Mithali on her inner thigh and she gets some treatment from the physio. She continues to bat after receiving some treatment. Maiden for Perry. 

13:03 (IST)

After 90 overs,India Women 257/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 25 , Yastika Bhatia 18)

Brown has been hit for two boundaries in this over by Bhatia, who is now opening up. Firstly a drive through mid off and then pull for four runs.

13:00 (IST)

After 89 overs,India Women 248/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 24 , Yastika Bhatia 10)

Perry continues. Four off the last ball that ruins all the good work done in the over by Perry. Down leg stump line and Bhatia pulls it away for four runs. Six off the over.

12:57 (IST)

After 88 overs,India Women 242/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 23 , Yastika Bhatia 5)

Brown bowling well in this spell and needs to carry on doing this good job. More bite in her bowling right now. Just one off the over.

12:53 (IST)

After 87 overs,India Women 241/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 23 , Yastika Bhatia 4)

Perry continues and she is unlucky again. Mooney drops Mithali on 23 in slips. She took one right at the start of the day but Perry had overstepped then. Mithali needs to make most of this second chance now. One off the over.

12:48 (IST)

After 86 overs,India Women 240/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 23 , Yastika Bhatia 3)

Brown from the other end. Starts off with a dot before Bhatia pulls her for a single. Mithali with a boundary, drawn forward, outside edge runs away for four runs square of the wicket. Good ploy from Brown. Needs to stick to this plan. Five off the over.

12:44 (IST)

After 85 overs,India Women 235/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 19 , Yastika Bhatia 2)

Back from dinner and Mithali starts off with a textbook cover drive for four runs. Good comeback from Perry after that boundary as she bowls four dots on the trot.

12:02 (IST)

DINNER BREAK!

Tahlia McGrath now bowling with the second new ball. She is fuller and wider outside off against left-handed Bhatia. India placed well at 231/3 after first session of day 2. Mithali and Yastika in middle. Expect Aussies to come back hard in second session as Indians look to build another partnership. See you in another 40 minutes.

11:57 (IST)

After 83 overs,India Women 230/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 15 , Yastika Bhatia 2)

Ellyse Perry back on. With the new ball. Yastika is not moving her front leg and Perry is looking to bring one in to hit the pads. On last ball, Bhatia pulls but does not connect. Maiden for Perry. 

11:52 (IST)

After 82 overs,India Women 230/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 15 , Yastika Bhatia (W) 2)

New ball is taken and Sutherland would like bowling with it. And she goes too wide down leg for five wides. It is swinging big and she needs to have a control over it. Checks her line and bowls more on the off stump. Costly over for Australia as India score 11 off it.

11:46 (IST)

After 81 overs,India Women 219/3 ( Mithali Raj (C) 13 , Yastika Bhatia (W) 2)

Second new ball available now but Australia don't take it as Molineux continues. Raut departs. She chose to walk as she must have known she nicked it. Up for a debate whether walking is fine or not as it can put your team in some trouble. But that is for later. Yastika Bhatia, LHB, comes out to bat and gets off the mark on first ball. Two off the over and a wicket.

11:44 (IST)

OUT! Molineux with the wicket. Raut walked. Molineux turned it away from Raut, it took the outside edge it seems and keeper Healy collected it behind the stumps, players appealed, umpire turned it down but right then Raut started walking back. Punam Raut c Healy b Molineux 36(165)  

11:42 (IST)

After 80 overs,India Women 217/2 ( Punam Raut 36 , Mithali Raj (C) 13)

Mithali with a fault shot, almost got caught at gully. Widish line from Sutherland, Mithali searches for a shot and outside goes over the gully fielder for four runs. Fault shot again on last ball and carries to gully on one bounce. Second new ball is available now. Five off the over.

11:37 (IST)

After 79 overs,India Women 212/2 ( Punam Raut 36 , Mithali Raj (C) 9)

Sophie Molineux is back into the attack. Good running between the wickets as Punam hits one to third man and runs a quick double. And just two off the over. Second new ball available after next over.

11:33 (IST)

After 78 overs,India Women 210/2 ( Punam Raut 34 , Mithali Raj (C) 9)

Sutherland continues. Raut plays four dots on the trot. She takes a quick single on the fifth. Two overs to the second new ball. One off this over.

11:30 (IST)

After 77 overs,India Women 209/2 ( Punam Raut 33 , Mithali Raj (C) 9)

Gardner continues. From round the wicket to Raj, and bowled on off stumo, Raj goes forward and leans into the cover drive that fetches her four. The streak of maidens broken. Four off it.

11:27 (IST)

After 76 overs,India Women 205/2 ( Punam Raut 33 , Mithali Raj (C) 5)

Sutherland continues. How has she been today. Bowled a discoplined line. Bowling with a lot of pace. Raut rock solid in defence. Runs are suddenly hard to come by since the departure of Mandhana. Another maiden.

11:23 (IST)

After 75 overs,India Women 205/2 ( Punam Raut 33 , Mithali Raj (C) 5)

Gardner continues. Good over from the spinner. She has been so good in this spell. Follows a maiden with another as Australia slow things down. 

11:23 (IST)

After 74 overs,India Women 205/2 ( Punam Raut 33 , Mithali Raj (C) 5)

Sutherland back on. Raut plays out a maiden from her. India cannot afford too may maidens at this stage. Need to keep the run-scoring quick. 

11:17 (IST)

After 73 overs,India Women 205/2 ( Punam Raut 33 , Mithali Raj (C) 5)

Five off the over, thanks to a boundary by Mithali. The partnership builds and Lanning won't like it.

11:12 (IST)

After 72 overs,India Women 200/2 ( Punam Raut 32 , Mithali Raj (C) 1)

Brown starts off the fresh over with one byes. as Healy fails to collect it cleanly. 200 up for India as well. New ball due in eight overs. Two off the over.

11:09 (IST)

After 71 overs,India Women 198/2 ( Punam Raut 31 , Mithali Raj (C) 1)

Gardner continues. Mithali plays four dots before one bye is run. Raut gets a nice full toss on the off side but she fails to put it away for four runs. Just one off the over.

11:05 (IST)

After 70 overs,India Women 197/2 ( Punam Raut 31 , Mithali Raj (C) 1)

Brown back on to target the new batter. Raut defends one before tucking on to leg side for a single. Mooney, on mic from the middle, says Mithali is a little susceptible against the pace at start so they are trying Brown for a while. Raj gets off the mark with a single to square leg. Two off the over.
