Georgia Wareham to Selman, out Stumped! All over for the hosts! Deathly silence in the stadium! Australia are through to the final! Tears in the Windies dug out! The leg-break tossed up outside off, Selman, in one final act of audacious-but-ineffective savagery, comes down the track and swings through the original line, misses it completely as Healy gathers it and whips off the bails - finds the mute button for the crowd somewhere in the stumps. Selman st Alyssa Healy b Georgia Wareham 3(8)

Paro: "Haynes innings could be the diffference between the two sides."

Gardner to Afy Fletcher, out Bowled! NINE DOWN! Aussies just a wicket away from vengeance. A regulation length ball on middle, the you-miss-I-hit strategy, and the way the Windies have lost the plot here, they're likely to be suicidal with these. Has a swing across the line, misses, as it crashes into the middle-stump. Afy Fletcher b Gardner 3(4)

Shubham Sharma: "Amazed why did they opted to bowl first when they know how the wicket plays in Antigua."

Schutt to Chinelle Henry, out Caught by Georgia Wareham! And the implosion continues. A back of a length delivery just outside off, an easy dab for a single or even a carve away for four, but today - not the hosts' day. Tries to cross-bat it over mid-off, ends up toe-ending it straight to Wareham at mid-off. Chinelle Henry c Georgia Wareham b Schutt 8(13) [4s-1]

Delissa Kimmince to Britney Cooper, out Caught by Alyssa Healy! And they continue to tumble. A slow length ball, feeding on the anxiety of the Windies, Britney Cooper goes the the cross-batted heave down the ground, gets a top-edge which goes high in the air, as the bespectacled Healy settles safely under it. Seven down, and Australia are devouring the Windies. Britney Cooper c Alyssa Healy b Delissa Kimmince 2(10)

Gardner to Kycia Knight, out Caught by Perry! Panic attack for the Windies! Pitching on a length outside off, tossed up enticingly, Kycia Knight takes the bait and goes for the slog-sweep, ends up holing out to Preey stationed at cow corner. She's pumped, as is her entire team, as another Windies batsman returns to the pavilion looking dejected. Kycia Knight c Perry b Gardner 7(9)

Perry's doing a McGrath here, six deliveries, each one of them on a good length, predictably just outside off, showing all her cards to Campbelle - who can't defend any longer, crouches in looking to make it into a pulling length but just doesn't get the elevation, swatting it right into a waiting square leg.

Perry to Dottin, out Bowled!! Chopped on. It really doesn't get better from Perry, who dishes out the perfect confused-length, which Dottin first gets forward to, then goes back and freezes in front of her stumps as the ball cuts back in sharply off the turf and ricochets off the half-hearted cut to uproot leg-stump.

Pitches it on a back of a length, gets it to move back in off the seam as Lanning tries to back away into the on-side and cut it away, cramps her for room and gets it past the blade to hit the top of leg-stump. Fantastic bowling by Dottin, and she reaps the rewards. Two new batsmen at the crease. Lanning b Dottin 31(39) [4s-2]
