7th over: England 30-2 (Sciver-Brunt 20, Knight 3) Afy Fletcher into the attack and she flights a ball up on middle stump that Sciver-Brunt trots out to and works through mid-wicket for four with Swiss-clock timing. England need some more of that, their run rate is spluttering down at four an over, just one more single off it.
6th over: England 24-2 (Sciver-Brunt 15, Knight 2) England have only managed to score two boundaries in the powerplay, it’s been tough going out in the middle. Jahzara Claxton whizzes through her second over, she’s gone for a miserly couple of runs only. England feeling some scorecard pressure.
Apologies for the delayed start – England 23-2
James Wallace
After five overs, England have somewhat stumbled, losing both openers inside the powerplay. West Indies won the toss and elected to field under leaden skies in Chelmsford. Sophia Dunkley and Dani Wyatt-Hodge are already back in the shed and former and current captains Heather Knight and Nat Sciver-Brunt are currently rebuilding for the home side. Thanks for joining us and apologies for delayed start at this end. ‘Ghosts in the machine…’
