Devine got to her half century and then got out...179-5 with 6.2 overs left

[andy]

Just can't pull away NZ rate hasn't gone above 4.1 all innings...5 overs to go they need to go big here

[andy]

NZ post 227-9

England Vs Sri Lanka today...Sri Lanka win toss and choose to bowl first..... England unchanged

[andy]

Early wicket run out of Amy Jones! Ridiculous not needed...Beaumont had taken apart dasanayaka's over and then a ridiculous run out!! 24-1

[andy]

Beaumont looking in really good touch so far...26 from 21 balls timing her drives beautifully...needs to go big after running her opening partner out

[andy]

And she's gone...out for 32, 49-2

[andy]

England need to show more intent....they've allowed part time spinner athapattau to bowl bowl 3 overs for just 9 runs....can't be allowing part timers to just bowl

[andy]

Heather knight has been given out on review....ball off the glove to slip...109-3

[andy]

NAT sciver-brunt has got to another half century! Been a really good innings from her!

[andy]

England lose a fourth wicket...with the score on 146...Emma lamb new batter in, batting out of position normally bats at top of the order...won't be easy starting the innings facing spin

[alfie]

Dunkley underwhelming again... Bit more to do now for NSB . Sri Lanka might be regretting dropping her early on as it has already cost them - and it was a pretty easy chance at any level.

England overall still not too convincing against spin heavy attacks. Had some luck : Knight the other day , Nat today - and have needed it. Their own bowlers might fancy conditions later though...

Wyatt should come in for dunkley...much better player of spin and push lamb.up the order and allow Wyatt to slot in at 6....250 still on here which will be plenty against Sri lanka

[alfie]

Hmm. Lamb and Capsey both gone too so England in a spot of trouble .

Agree Danni Wyatt has to come in : beats me how they can be leaving her out with that dodgy 5-7.

For now , need Dean to do her support act again !

How many do you think is enough Alfie? I reckon 220....take out athapattau and there isn't much else in this lankan batting line up
