Australia Women vs South Africa Women, 26th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Alana King to de Klerk, out Bowled!! King becomes the first player to take a seven-fer in World Cups. Just a sensational spell today. What control, what wizardry. Has been too good for South Africa and also for de Klerk here. Drifting in on middle and leg, lands on a good length and rips past the outside edge as she's opened up in defence. Was rooted to the crease and loses her off stump. de Klerk b Alana King 14(23) [4s-2]

Alana King to Mlaba, 1 run, finds the edge, it hits the keeper's leg and balloons over slip

Gardner to Ayabonga Khaka, out Bowled!! Gardner joins the party! The drift and the consequent lack of turn accounts for Khaka as she's beaten on the outside edge. Gets forward to defend, plays inside the line and it crashes into off stump after sliding past the edge. Ayabonga Khaka b Gardner 0(5)

Gardner to de Klerk, FOUR, helped around the corner as Gardner errs in line. Turning down leg, de Klerk gets low to sweep and drags it fine past the keeper

Alana King to Masabata Klaas, out Bowled!! The dream spell from King continues! Again the control is unflinching. Perfectly on a good length on middle, Klaas goes back looking to work through the on-side but is opened up completely as it turns away to take out off stump. Masabata Klaas b Alana King 4(11)

Alana King to Sinalo Jafta, out Bowled!! She's gone this time! Was fun while it lasted but Jafta's counter-attack is done. King completes a five-for in just her fourth over, quite remarkable really. Gives it a rip, lands on a good length and beats Jafta on the sweep. Off stump goes for a walk. Sinalo Jafta b Alana King 29(17) [4s-7]

Alana King to Sinalo Jafta, FOUR, pulls out the reverse-sweep now! Good length ball pitching on middle and turning away, she gets in position and swats it past slip

Alana King to Sinalo Jafta, FOUR, hammered back down the ground as Jafta continues her positive intent! Dances down to the pitch of the ball, plenty of air given by King and Jafta smashes it straight

Gardner to Sinalo Jafta, FOUR, while all those wickets are falling, Jafta is off to a bit of a flier. Steps out, gets close to the pitch and whips it over midwicket to the boundary

Gardner to Sinalo Jafta, FOUR, starts with a slightly loose delivery. Width outside off, Jafta goes back and cuts it away past backward point

Alana King to de Klerk, FOUR, gets a thick edge and it rolls away wide of slip! Hangs back to this length ball in defence, it turns away and de Klerk opens the face to adjust. Played it wth soft hands and it went down

Alana King to Chloe Tryon, out Caught by Gardner!! What is going on! The procession of wickets continues and King now has unreal figures of 0/4. Tossed up, drifting into the pads and Tryon flicks it straight to short midwicket. Gardner isn't dropping that. On a hattrick now is King... Chloe Tryon c Gardner b Alana King 0(1)

Alana King to Annerie Dercksen, out Bowled!! That's a lovely delivery by Alana King, she's on a roll today. A loopy delivery on leg, good amount of drift and Annerie Dercksen goes for drive. Beaten on the inside edge and the leg-stump goes for a toss. Three wickets in this spell already and she hasn't even conceded a single run yet. Annerie Dercksen b Alana King 5(19) [4s-1]

Sutherland to Sinalo Jafta, FOUR, drifting on the pads, a loose delivery as Sinalo Jafta glances it away to the fine leg boundary. Three boundaries in that over

Sutherland to Sinalo Jafta, FOUR, back of a length delivery outside off, Sinalo Jafta plays it late, carving it away to the square third man boundary. She has the habit of doing this. Has the ability to play counterattacking knocks

Sutherland to Sinalo Jafta, FOUR, 50 up for South Africa Women! Pitched up by the bowler outside off, Sinalo Jafta steers it through backward point and opens her account

Alana King to Annerie Dercksen, no run, run-out opportunity missed! Annerie Dercksen drives it towards mid-off where there's a slight fumble by Sutherland. Annerie Dercksen sets off for a single, but Sutherland is quick to recover. The throw comes in at the keeper's end, but it wasn't an accurate one. Mooney had to move across and collect it and by the time she got rid of the ball, Annerie Dercksen was comfortably in

Sutherland to Annerie Dercksen, FOUR, they have just lost a couple of wickets, but the intent is clear by South Arica. Short of a length around off, Annerie Dercksen rocks back in the crease and thumps it over the bowler's head for a rollicking boundary

Alana King to Kapp, out Caught by Kim Garth!! Two wickets in the over for Alana King. A tossed up delivery by Alana King outside off, Kapp tries to reach out for it with a slice and ends up handing over an easy catch to backward point. Garth stationed there makes no mistake and the Proteas are four down. Kapp c Kim Garth b Alana King 0(4)

Alana King to Kapp, no run, in the air, but safe! A tossed up delivery on middle and leg, Kapp looks to flick it away, gets a leading edge that eludes the bowler

Alana King to Luus, out Caught by Sutherland!! There we go! Hasn't taken long at all for King to be among the wicket. Lands it perfectly on a good length after giving it a rip, gets big on Luus's attempted slog-sweep and the top-edge goes straight up. It's nicely taken by Sutherland at mid-on and the third one is down for South Africa. Idea from Luus might've been to put the pressure on King early and not allow her to get into rhythm but it hasn't worked. Luus c Sutherland b Alana King 6(15) [4s-1]

Kim Garth to Tazmin Brits, out Lbw!! Brits has been adjudged out lbw, and after having a chat with Luus, she has challenged the umpire's decision! Looks plumb to the naked eye. She might have wasted a review. Was a back of a length delivery and it kept slightly low. Probably a leg-cutter as Tazmin Brits looks to whip it away. Struck on the back leg and replays confirm there was no inside edge. A flat line on UltraEdge. Three reds and she's gone. Pitching in line, impact in line and it's crashing into the stumps. Brits' rusty knock comes to an end. Along with that, she also uses up a review. Both the South African openers are now back to the pavilion. Tazmin Brits lbw b Kim Garth 6(19) [4s-1]

Kim Garth to Tazmin Brits, FOUR, good timing. Kim Garth fires this on the pads, Tazmin Brits flicks it through mid-wicket for four runs

Schutt to Luus, FOUR, Luus is off the mark with a first-ball boundary. This was pitched up by Schutt and Luus went for a drive. Gets a bottom edge that nutmegs the keeper and races away to the fence

Schutt to Wolvaardt, out Caught by Alana King!! Schutt draws first blood! Wolvaardt departs after getting off to a brisk start. Short of a length around middle and leg, Wolvaardt looks to flick it away, but gets undone due to the extra bounce. It stops on a bit and Wolvaardt ends up getting a leading edge towards mid-wicket. King dives forward and takes a good low catch as the ball is about to dip in front of her. Wolvaardt c Alana King b Schutt 31(26) [4s-7]

Kim Garth to Wolvaardt, FOUR, width on offer outside off, Wolvaardt throws the kitchen sink at it and carves it over backward point for back-to-back boundaries

Kim Garth to Wolvaardt, FOUR, short of a length around off, Wolvaardt plays it on the rise, carving it through backward point for four runs

Schutt to Wolvaardt, FOUR, four boundaries in that over! She bowled a maiden to start her spell, goes for 16 runs in this over. Short and wide outside off, Wolvaardt slashes it through the off-side and adds four more to the tally

Schutt to Wolvaardt, FOUR, more runs! Width on offer, Wolvaardt goes for a cut and gets an underedge that beats the keeper and races away to the fence
