Right, that’s all from me. The England juggernaut moves on. They play their semi final on Friday, by which time they will know their potential opponent in the final – the winner of Australia v India on Feburary 23. Danni Wyatt is back in the zone, Katherine Sciver-Brunt has refound her mo-jo, Nat Sciver-Brunt is flying.

But perhaps the last word should go to Nasser Hussain, who speaks words of warning, and wisdom. The big three – India, Australia and England – are dominating women’s cricket much as they are dominating the men’s game. “This is a World Cup,” he says. “We’ve got to make sure the haves and the have-nots can play together.”

A hugely impressive win for England, who move smoothly into the semi-finals either against South Africa or New Zealand [to be decided in the South Africa v Bangladesh game which starts in half an hour). The emphatic win leaves India to take on Australia in the other semi-final.
