Bowling change for India as Amanjot Kaur comes into the attack. Tazmin Brits drives crisply but finds extra cover, then collects a couple of runs off the next. A mistimed shot goes in the air, just wide of the bowler - a risky single follows as Jemimah has a shy at the stumps and narrowly misses. Laura Wolvaardt, meanwhile, finds her timing - two consecutive boundaries! South Africa's openers keep the momentum going. 11 runs come off it, and after 8 overs, SA are 44 for 0.
Deepti Sharma joins the attack with her off-spin, and immediately tightens the screws. Just 7 runs off her over, and after 9 overs, South Africa are 51 for 0.
Renuka Singh continues - and India finally strike! Tazmin defends a couple before taking off for a risky single, but a sharp piece of fielding from Amanjot Kaur catches her short of the crease. Brilliant direct hit, and Navi Mumbai erupts! Tazmin departs for 23 off 35 balls, and India have their breakthrough.
Anneke Bosch walks in to join Laura Wolvaardt. Laura sweeps towards cover for a single to keep the scoreboard ticking. Bosch plays watchfully, defending the last two deliveries with a straight bat.
After 10 overs, South Africa are 52 for 1, needing 247 runs from 40 overs.
