Jones with a good take as the ball bounced a bit extra as well and she whips off the bails in a flash. The third umpire is called in.

Anya Shrubsole to Marizanne Kapp, OUT! LBW! Another twist in the tale! A big, big wicket this! Kapp departs and this can change the game in England's favour! A length delivery on middle. Kapp looks to sweep it away but misses. The ball hits her pads and there is an appeal. The umpire raises his finger. Kapp takes the review but it looks dead straight. The replays roll in and the UltraEdge shows no bat involved. The Ball Tracker rolls and it shows three reds. So Kapp has to walk back and Anya Shrubsole strikes.
