Darcie Brown to Shrubsole, no run, another shout for LBW, but the height was an issue and Australia don't review. A nip-backer and Brown has another batter pinned to the crease, past the inside edge and struck Shrubsole high on the back-pad

Darcie Brown to Ecclestone, out Lbw!! That looked straight and Ecclestone is reviewing though, has to with her team in dire straits. But this looks just OUT, I'm afraid, no bat and UltraEdge confirms it. Struck on the back-thigh, which was heavily bent. Onto ball-tracking, three reds and it stays OUT. England sink further - they're two wickets away from conceding the Ashes. The nip-backer from Brown, she has been superb all day - trapped Ecclestone in the crease as she pressed forward, struck in front of middle and was going on to crash into the leg-stump. Easy call for the on-field umpire. Ecclestone lbw b Darcie Brown 3(9)
