England Women vs Australia Women, 1st T20I - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

So that's all from this game. This result leaves England having to win all five remaining matches to regain the Ashes. Going to be a tall order against this Australian team. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. See you next time!

Healy: England bowled well in that back end to get back into it. Pleased to be on the right side of the result. Thought it was par. There's stuff we can work on. Wicket looked good, if we played good smart cricket, I thought we could get the job done. That's what makes her so good, she reads the game and situations so well (Mooney). Test cricket is the rarity for us, T20 is what we play a lot of. Can be a little more clinical at the death. Thought we were outstanding with the new ball. Really blessed we've got such an amazing bowling attack. Atmosphere was amazing.

Mooney, POTM: Was on the edge of my seat a bit at the non-striker's end. But full faith in the girls, We bat very deep. As a batter you have to knuckle down and take the team home. Wicket was good, maybe on the slower side a bit. They bowled exceptionally well in the last five overs. We know she's the real key in their bowling lineup (Ecclestone). To get on top of her is key. Feels a little hit helter-skelter to be honest (switching to this from the Test match). Always tough coming into the series. We know the quality in this England side. They're going to come hard, we have to be prepared for that.

21:41 Local Time, 20:41 GMT, 02:11 IST: Phew that got a bit closer than Australia would've liked. They were in control for most of the chase, but there was a bit of drama in the final few overs with wickets falling. Beth Mooney, though, was brilliant, finishing unbeaten on 61 which was enough to see them home. There were contributions from Tahlia McGrath and Ash Garnder as well, taking the pressure off Mooney with their brisk knocks. England were struggling to keep the runs down, and it was only at the death that they fought back through some smart bowling. But Australia scraped over the line in the final over.

Ecclestone to Wareham, 1 run, Wareham cuts hard, there's a diving stop at point, but they still get across for the single. Australia get home in scrappy fashion, but that'll do just fine

Georgia Wareham, right handed bat, comes to the crease

They needed 1 off 5, now it's 1 off 2 with a new batter walking in. Mooney walks up to her for a chat

Ecclestone to Sutherland, out Caught by Jones!! What have we got here? A half-tracker outside off, Sutherland looks to muscle it away and hits it straight up off the top-edge. It's a dolly for the keeper who makes no mistake. Sutherland c Jones b Ecclestone 9(6) [4s-2]

Ecclestone to Sutherland, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Ecclestone to Sutherland, no run, this is absolutely hammered down the pitch and Ecclestone somehow gets her right hand to it! Would've been an unbelievable catch had she taken it. Ecclestone is disappointed that she wasn't able to hang on

Ecclestone to Sutherland, no run, cuts hard but doesn't find the gap through cover who makes a diving stop

Ecclestone to Sutherland, FOUR, that should seal the deal! Sutherland makes room, gets one right in the slot and hammers it back over the umpire

Sophie Ecclestone [3.0-0-19-1] is back into the attack

Going to be Ecclestone with the final over

Bell to Mooney, FOUR, just brilliant! What a terrific shot in a tight situation! Full at the stumps, Mooney makes room and lofts it beautifully over extra cover. Just 5 needed off the final over now

Bell to Sutherland, 1 run, full on the pads, flicked to deep square leg

Bell to Sutherland, FOUR, Sutherland finds the boundary first ball to silence the crowd! Dragged down short on middle, Sutherland hangs back and pulls it behind square

Annabel Sutherland, right handed bat, comes to the crease

Bell to Perry, out Bowled!! Swing and a miss! The off stump is pegged back and Bell is delighted as she twirls in celebration! Slower leg-cutter again, lands it on a good length and it sneaks under Perry's attempted hack across the line. Perry b Bell 7(6)

Bell to Perry, THATS OUT!! Bowled!!
