- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.1 round the wicket, tossed on a length, chipped straight to cover! Jings! Gordon is amongst it straight away, windmilling into the mixer. Her Scotland team-mates are understandably cock-a-hoop. Jones never got hold of her drive, the ball almost dying on McColl as she stooped low to take the catch. Wicket off the first ball 0/16.1 she's done it again! This time it's from a complete drag-down, but the effect it the same! Wyatt-Hodge could have hit this anywhere on the leg side, ends up plinking it off the toe end towards mid-on, where Kathryn Bryce takes an excellent running catch. England stutter again, both openers befuddled by Gordon! 51/210.2 slogged high... but picks out the fielder in the deep! Decent hit, but not long enough from Dunkley. Rainey is out on the rope at deep backward square leg, she has to steady herself but holds it well in front of her face. Important breakthrough for Scotland, delivered by the skipper 92/313.3 bowled 'er! Peach of a delivery. Rainey on England's parade, and the in-form Capsey is sent back. Perfect length, holds its line to beat the defensive push, shudders the top of off stump. Beautifully bowled, and Scotland are still scrapping here 110/416.3 scooped straight to short fine leg!! Chatterji strikes, with the aid of Gordon's safe hands. She was using the pace, moving across and flicking leg side - good connection but it went straight to the fielder, who plucked the catch above her head 139/5Extras2 (lb 1, w 1)TOTAL200/5 (20 Overs, RR: 10)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Amy Jones, 0.1 ov), 2-51 (Danni Wyatt-Hodge, 6.1 ov), 3-92 (Sophia Dunkley, 10.2 ov), 4-110 (Alice Capsey, 13.3 ov), 5-139 (Heather Knight, 16.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.5 Ecclestone hits the stumps again! Slows this up, 47mph and turning sharply down the line of leg stump as Carter heaves across it. Rattles the woodwork and another set Scotland batter departs. Ecclestone does another little jig 64/33.4 you miss, I hit! Zipped down and Fraser is bowled attempting to sweep. Top of off, hint of turn for Dean, and she's got the breakthrough for her team. Sparky knock from Fraser, but she has to go 38/16.3 middle stump pegged back! Ecclestone claims her 150th T20I wicket! Big running jump and punch of the air in celebration. Maybe because this is Scotland's key batter, Kathryn Bryce, who is beaten looking to sweep. Too much dip and turn to do that safely. England have another 53/213.4 larruped leg side, finds the fielder! Skips down and heaves for the hills but doesn't quite have the power to clear deep midwicket. Gibson holds a good catch above her head, and that may be Scotland's last chance of a miracle tonight 109/511.2 blapped... but straight to deep square! Length ball, hammered hard leg side but that's a long boundary and Kemp was there waiting for it. Steadies herself and then celebrates with a clenched fist. England chipping away at the Scotland line-up 92/414.3 sent up the chimney, and taken! Kemp among the wickets now. Finds the leading edge as Chatterji tries to shovel it leg side and presents a simple caught-and-bowled. Scotland lose a sixth 115/619.6 full and straight, clipped leg side and they run in vain for a second! Jones flicks off the bails, the chase ends with the run out of Sproul - and a comfortable 38-run win for England, their 100% record intact 162/7Extras5 (b 1, lb 1, w 3)TOTAL162/7 (20 Overs, RR: 8.1)Fall of wickets: 1-38 (Katherine Fraser, 3.4 ov), 2-53 (Kathryn Bryce, 6.3 ov), 3-64 (Darcey Carter, 8.5 ov), 4-92 (Megan McColl, 11.2 ov), 5-109 (Sarah Bryce, 13.4 ov), 6-115 (Priyanaz Chatterji, 14.3 ov), 7-162 (Pippa Sproul, 19.6 ov)
