Goodness me… When Harmanpreet’s bat got stuck in the T20 World Cup semi-final it cost India the game. It’s happened again less than 12 months later. Bad running? England won’t care.
Kaur run out (Wyatt) 49 (Ind 306-5)
They have, you know! England cannot believe their luck. No-one thought this was out.
Harmanpreet Kaur, a little lazily, has let her bat get stuck in the ground as she casually moved back into her crease. She's an inch or two short of her ground.
Out of nowhere.
Hello!
Have England run out Harmanpreet Kaur?

I said earlier about the pressure on Harmanpreet Kaur here but this innings from Yastika Bhatia has completely removed it.
She has played more aggressively, allowing Harmanpreet to settle in, and has scored freely against both spin and pace. None of England's bowlers have been able to settle against her.
Well this is threatening to get as ugly as a meeting with Sir Killalot!
Yastika Bhatia smashes Lauren Bell, the England player who dropped her on 15 earlier, to the mid-wicket fence. The next ball is edged but Heather Knight puts down a tough, one-handed chance at slip.
Bell has a worried expression on her face. England are wobbling.

Chaos 2 was impressive, but I was always a fan of Killertron, which was a pink wheelie bin lid with two wheels and a pickaxe strapped on - just about as fun as it sounds!

Sophie Ecclestone brings about some calm by conceding just two singles in this over. Still, India's 300 is up in just 61 overs. It's a very flat pitch and, in a four-day Test, they could bat England out of the game here.
Lauren Filer has been told to take a breather after that poor over. Here's Lauren Bell.

Heather Knight clearly not keen on giving bowlers extended spells. I’d like to see Ecclestone or Bell really settle in to create some pressure.
As for Robot Wars, who remembers Wheely Big Cheese?
Yastika 57, Kaur 48
After getting a pat on the back from her skipper and batting partner, Yastika Bhatia crashes away the next ball too. It's not good bowling in truth from Lauren Filer. She is being asked to bang the ball in and be aggressive but that is too wide.
There have been 37 runs in four overs since tea.
Yastika Bhatia gets to her first Test fifty with a six! It was a bit top-edgy but cleared the boundary comfortably.

For me Harmanpreet Kaur is the most aesthetically pleasing batter in the women's game. Everything just looks so easy.
Here she eases forward to clip Sophie Ecclestone for four through the leg side before stroking a few more through the covers a ball later.
10 runs come from the over after seven were scored in the previous one.

Martin, does this mean you could have chosen whatever you wanted as a prize but opted for a net with Nasser Hussain? Not a holiday? Not tickets to a World Cup final? A net with Nasser Hussain...
I don't know if I've never been so impressed or if I am bemused.
England opt for Lauren Filer's pacey seam after the interval but India stretch their lead further.

Chaos 2 was the 2000s Man Utd/Real Madrid of Robot Wars. Just relentless but ultimately boring. Hypno-Disc on the other hand. Now we're talking.
Yastika Bhatia, meanwhile, starts this session as she finished the last, by driving beautifully for four.
Right then, we're just about ready for the start of the evening session in Mumbai which means it is time for me to hand over to Matthew Henry.
He claims that he didn't like Chaos 2 because it won too much. Think he must have been more of a Hypno-Disc guy...

That session mirrored the first: England fight back with two quick wickets but India still manage to settle the nerves.
Harmanpreet Kaur has been steady for her 34 while Yastika Bhatia has been the more expansive of the two, crucially gifted a life on 15 when Lauren Bell dropped a sitter.
The pitch is flat, and batter-friendly, so England won't be panicking yet. But if they are kept out there for the entire day, which is something they are not used to - there will be some very tired bodies coming back out tomorrow.
We will get into what happened in that afternoon session in Mumbai shortly but Vinny's Robot Wars text has sparked furious debate among the ´óÏó´«Ã½ cricket team.
Vinny listed Razer's achievements and impressive as it sounds, I think he downplayed them somehow. Razer was the most successful robot in the history of the show, apparently.
My favourite was Chaos 2, though. Flipping robots two or three times its size out of the arena? Yes, please.
It has been a brilliant start to his final career Test series for David Warner, who has bought up 150 on the opening day of the first Test gainst Pakistan in Perth.
Australia are currently 292-3 with Travis Head playing some shots alongside Warner.

I've got to be honest, that is going to be hard to top for me, Vinny!
Robot Wars was great. So many questions (what was Matilda like?) but there is a Test match going on.
India take just one from Lauren Filer's over to end the session but they are in a very good position as the players head off for tea on day one.
