A quick word with Ellyse Perry on the sidelines - Perry reckons that there has been a little bit in the wicket and they managed to create a few chances early on, so it will be really interesting to see how the next few overs pan out. She praises Schutt for bowling exceptionally well up front and creating opportunities. Ellyse also shares that she picked up a small niggle during the T20I series. Adds that the scans showed only something minor, so it was about letting it settle. Mentions that she has started running again, and they will see how things progress over the next week or so. Perry describes it as a great tussle between two strong sides. She admits Australia missed the mark a bit with the bat during the T20Is and says the transition back into the longer format is a good opportunity to spend more time in the middle. She shares that it is lovely to have Alyssa Healy back in the side, and she speaks warmly about her contribution to the team, the sport and women's sports overall. Back to the action, leggie Alana King to roll her arm over now.

DRINKS BREAK! India have managed to get a partnership going through Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur. Mandhana was scratchy early on, but she is gradually starting to find her rhythm and timing. The job of these two will be to lay a strong platform for the likes of Richa Ghosh and Deepti Sharma and take this stand as deep as possible. Australia, though, have been disciplined with the ball and will want to maintain that control. The swing has faded as the ball has gotten older, but there is still enough happening off the deck for Annabel Sutherland to keep the batters honest.
