[CURVE]

SA score 6/147 from their 20 overs, probably 15-20 short.

 

[madjoe]

healy looks really good, been out of form badly so nice to see her find a bit

 

[NYRB]

SA score 6/147 from their 20 overs, probably 15-20 short.

I missed the SA innings but seeing that the Aussies took until the last over to get over the line, another 15 runs probably sees South Africa win that.

I thought Australia was cruising after Healy departed, if they had to chase an extra 15-20, they would still have done it with some comfort.

 

[madjoe]

might sound silly but was does fox have no guys covering the game?

 

[dumb]

6/110, gardner and perry out of the way. not looking at too big a score here with 2.3 left.

 

[jhong]

Sth Africa putting in a much better bowling performance than yesterday. Except for the last over .

 

[Gethelred]

In a spot of bother, here.

 

[dumb]

just about in the bag here for the saffers. need the mother of all SA chokes to lose this one.

 

[NYRB]

is Anneke Bosch any relation to Eathan Bosch , the one who played in the SA20 last night?

 

[jhong]

A well deserved win to Sth Africa.

 

[NYRB]

Even as an Australian, you would be happy to see an even contest across this series.



Judging by the reaction of the South African players they looked mightily happy after winning that today in Canberra.

 

[madjoe]

awesome win.Aussies knew the wicket was slow SA won on merit, feel like the slower bowlers worked a treat,

how good is kapp, opens the bowling and 1st drop

 

[Sea fog]

I suppose it is good for women's cricket when Australia doesn't win every match. It has always felt a bit lopsided.

Laura Wovaardt sucked me into thinking she'd batted too slowly for her team's good only for her to get South Africa home with a fair degree of comfort.

think this boat has sailed a long time ago, Aussies have lost to india,WI,SA,england past few months. time of aussies being the best team by a mile is long gone.

grace harris got a game coming in at 7 who i think just isn't good enough at the level. love to see the batting order mixed around a tad.

South Africa will bat first down in Hobart.

 

[NYRB]

Nice crowd building up after work in Hobart .

 

[NYRB]

Brits has to go 1st over.

 

[NYRB]

Adelaide v Adelaide teammates

Schutt v Wolvaardt

 

[NYRB]

Beautiful with a nice blow down the ground against her WBBL teammate.

 

[NYRB]

Back to back boundaries for Wolvaardt and if there is a player can probably pick Schutt up, its going to be her.

 

[NYRB]

Square boundaries at the Blundstone are 59 and 60 metres today.
