2nd over: Australia 11-0 (Healy 6, Litchfield 2) A half-hearted appeal as Molly Penfold moves the ball away from Litchfield and there is a sound as the ball passes the bat. But that was pretty clearly bat on ground. Penfold loses her radar with a couple of wides then a Suzie Bates mis-field at cover hands Healy a run off the last delivery. A bit sloppy from the White Ferns.
1st over: Australia 7-0 (Healy 5, Litchfield 0) A loosener from Rosemary Mair swings away from Alyssa Healy to start with a wide that releases the pressure. The Australia skipper whips another delivery off her pads to the boundary to brush away any suggestions she might be a bit rusty. Mair bounces back with a straight one that cuts through Phoebe Litchfield on the way through to the keeper.
