47.5: Ayabonga Khaka to Eden Carson, OUT! EDEN CARSON IS RUN OUT! Too full and around off. Eden Carson uses her bottom hand and chips it over mid off. Nadine De Klerk from long on runs across to her right and dives to cut it off. The ball is flicked towards the converging mid off fielder, Anneke Bosch, who throws it back towards the bowler. The batters complete the second run and try to pinch in the third, but Carson, running at the danger end, has to put in a desperate dive to drag the bat in. Ayabonga Khaka collects the ball and breaks the stumps. The on-field umpire does not feel the need to go upstairs and is confident as she raises her finger. The replays too, confirm that Carson is short of her crease. NEW ZEALAND WOMEN HAVE BEEN BOWLED OUT ON 231 IN 47.5 OVERS!
