Rajeshwari continues. Just one from the over 

ENGLAND 8 DOWN! DEEPTI CASTLES CROSS’ STUMPS! Flighted delivery outside off that had a sharp turn, Cross tried to give herself room but missed it. TWO IN AN OVER FOR DEEPTI! LAUREN FILER GONE FOR A DUCK! Filer tried to come down the track but the ball kept lower than expected and went under her bat to crash onto the stumps! 

Rajeshwari stuns Dean with one that’s quicker through the air as the batter is beaten comprehensively. Three runs from the over 

Four runs from Deepti’s over including a double from Cross. 

Couple of runs for Cross to start Rajeshwari’s over. On the legs and Cross sweeps it away for a FOUR to bring up England’s 100

Tight delivery on the stumps from Deepti, Dean tries to defend on the front foot but misses as the ball clips her pads. Huge shout from Yastika and Deepti but the umpire thinks otherwise. Harmanpreet decides against DRS

Just two from Rajeshwari’s over. India needs three wickets to register a massive win

The English batters are sweeping their way to failure. Now, it’s Dean who tries a sweep and misses but luckily for her, nothing dangerous happens. A rare full toss from Deepti and Cross capitalises and smokes it over mid on for a FOUR

Rajeshwari Gayakwad replaces Vastrakar. Ecclestone tries to sweep consecutive deliveries but finds no success. THAT’S ANOTHER ONE! Ecclestone attempts another sweep but this time the ball is much straighter and crashes onto the stumps! Utter dominance from the bowlers

ENG fall of wickets: 1-27 (Tammy Beaumont, 6.6 ov), 2-37 (Sophia Dunkley, 9.3 ov), 3-37 (Nat Sciver-Brunt, 9.4 ov), 4-68 (Heather Knight, 13.3 ov), 5-68 (Danni Wyatt, 14.1 ov), 6-83 (Amy Jones, 16.1 ov), 7-83 (Sophie Ecclestone, 17.4 ov)

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST! DEEPTI GETS HER SECOND! Short delivery, Jones tries to lob it over the in field but doesn’t get to free her arm, is cramped for space and gifts it straight to Shafali Verma. Wicket maiden from Deepti 

Ecclestone gets going on the other end. Short delivery from Vastrakar and Ecclestone plays the pull to perfection to collect a FOUR. A tad bit short again and this time it takes an outside edge off Ecclestone’s bat and races away towards the boundary, FOUR. 

DEEPTI GETS WYATT! England is falling like a house of cards! A flighted delivery that pitched outside off and turned just enough to force an outside edge off Wyatt’s bat and Rana takes a superb catch at slip. Sophie Ecclestone is in at seven. A boundary to reduce the mounting pressure a bit from Jones to finish the over 

VASTRAKAR GETS HER THIRD! WHAT A SPELL THIS HAS BEEN! Skipper Knight departs! She was constantly bringing the ball into the batters and that has paid off as she induces an outside edge off Knight’s blade. Keeper Amy Jones is in at six. A wiket maiden

Deepti Sharma into the attack, replaces Renuka. Knight tries to reverse sweep and misses completely as the ball crashes onto the top of her pads, huge shouts from the Indian players. Harmanpreet goes for DRS and it’s a pretty bad one! The ball was moving well away from the leg stump. India loses another review. Another attempted sweeo from Knight and she misses this one as well, the ball goes brushing past the top of leg stumps!

Wyatt gets going from the other end, uses her wrist to put one away on the legside for a FOUR! VASTRAKAR STRIKES THE VERY NEXT BALL! Wyatt is cramped for space and is trapped leg before and the umpire raises the finger. However, Wyatt takes DRS. And that has paid off, ball tracker shows the ball is going down the legside! Wyatt gets a reprieve. Drinks break 

Renuka attacks Knight’s legs, the latter just leaned onto it and flicked it through midwicket for FOUR! Four more, similar delivery down the legside and all Knight had to do was to guide it towards the boundary and she did just that. This is turning out to be an expensive over as Knight smashes yet another FOUR 

Pooja Vastrakar is into the attack, replaces Rana. VASTRAKAR DOES THE TRICK! DUNKLEY HAS TO WALK BACK! There was width offered, Dunkley cut it hard but it went straight to the substitute Harleen Deol at gully. TWO IN TWO FOR VASTRAKAR, makes a mess of Nat Sciver-Brunt’s stumps! The ball was pitched just outside off, nipped into NCB and went between the bat and pad to cut her innings short.Hattrick delivery now and the new batter Dani Wyatt drives it through covers for FOUR to get off the mark

On the off stumps from Renuka, Knight tries to parry it, gets an outside edge but it bisects the slip fielders and runs away for FOUR. Renuka continues to attack the stumps and this time, she traps Knight leg-before and there’s a huge shout from the Indians but the umpire thinks otherwise. DRS taken. Impact is outside off and the decision stays, India loses a review.

Too full from Rana and Dunkley finds the gap in the square region to collect a FOUR

RENUKA GETS THE FIRST BREAKTHROUGH! RIPPER! Pitched just outside off and angled into Beaumont, who missed to read the line and the ball squeezed past bat and pad to castle the stumps. Skipper Heather Knight is in at three

Rana continues from the other end. The first three deliveries have all angled into Dunkley, clear indication of Rana trying to induce an inside edge for something to happen at short leg 

Back of the length delivery from Renuka and Beaumont uses her wrist to slice it through the point region for FOUR. Short this time and Beaumont rocks back and slaps it on the legside for another FOUR

Beaumont comes down the track and converts a full ball to a half volley and smokes it over the infield to get a FOUR off Renuka. Rana angles it to the pads, Beaumont tries to defend on the front foot and it takes an edge off the shoulder of the bat but falls safe from the short leg fielder 

Beaumont chases a wide one from Renuka and it takes an inside edge but is well off the stumps. Full and on the pads, Beaumont flicks it deep to get a double. Quick single off the final ball

Sneh Rana to bowl the second, Harmanpreet turns towards spin straightaway. Dunkley gets her first FOUR of this innings as she plays a cheeky paddle sweep towards deep fine leg region. Hint of turn from Rana as she brings one into Dunkley, who defends it without much trouble

Renuka Thakur starts off with the new ball. Sophia Dunkley and Tammy Beaumont open the chase for England. Just a single from the first five balls

The players are all set to kick-off day three. Harmanpreet Kaur has decided to declare and England now has two days to chase down a mammoth 479

Lavanya: An overnight declaration. A very unsteady batting order. Recipe for a 3-day Test here at the D.Y. Patil Stadium

Our correspondent Lavanya, from the venue, pings: Heather Knight is throwing her arm in pre-day warmups this morning. A tad late if you ask me, but England can use all resources possible on crucial day 3
