SA 18-0 (5 Ovs) vs India 298-7 | SCORECARD

Kranti Gaud continues, keeping things tight from her end. Tazmin Brits and Laura Wolvaardt rotate the strike with a single each before Tazmin settles into defence for the rest of the over. A tidy one again - after 4 overs, South Africa are 12 for 0.

Renuka Singh bowls her third over and begins with another wide down leg. Laura adjusts quickly, defending one before finding the gap for a boundary through cover - her first of the innings. She follows it up with a neat single to keep the strike rotating.

A composed over for South Africa as they look to build steadily - 6 runs from it, and after 5 overs, they move to 18 for 0, needing 281 more from 45 overs.
