Women's Ashes 2nd ODI England v Australia July 16 1930hrs @ Southampton

[CURVE]

Some streaky runs early

But at least she was showing some intent, since Gardner has come in she has almost closed down. There are plenty of singles available, but she isn't always looking for them.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Why ins't Harris playing? Hadn't made any runs but we need someone down the order slogging.

 

[CURVE]

That was a nice shot, some intent at last.

Answered your own question

Not really suited to the 50 over game, she doesn't have much of a defensive shot, which is needed occasionally.

 

[Moonwatcher]

What happens if the keeper pushes the ball onto the batters bat while the bat is still swinging and it falls onto the stumps? Presumably a not out stumping attempt?

 

[Moonwatcher]

Eek

 

[Moonwatcher]

Bell the destroyer this match.

Gardner gone for 33. Big wicket for England.

 

[jhong]

Bell has been good in the white ball games .

 

[CURVE]

Bell has been good in the white ball games .

She looks like a good prospect for the Poms.

 

[010203]

Kate Cross will be cross she put that down.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Kate Cross will be cross she put that down.

Really?

 

[Substance]

Kate Cross will be cross she put that down.

Get out

 

[CURVE]

Bell may be getting the wickets, but at a cost of 7.5 runs an over.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Don't think that was as safe as the commentator thinks

 

[CURVE]

If Sutherland continues in this vein, 285-300 is a possibility.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Yep, it was.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Kate Cross will be cross she put that down.

 

[grumbleguts]

Get the feeling there has been a bit of "support the women" about this series. They have been cheering a lot of basic stuff. But I don't mind it, gives a real home crowd advantage feel to it.

It's just patronising, and it should stop.

 

[CURVE]

Seriously, why are Umpires taking shit appeals like that up to the third umpire? She was in by a mile.

 

[Santana]

Sutherland should bat a spot higher

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Partnership 76 in 11 overs

 

[Moonwatcher]

Pezza has given us a chance. Deserved a century but still did her job.
