Women's Ashes Only Test England v Australia June 22-26 1930hrs @ Trent Bridge

[HK_Hawk]

That was almost as bad as watching Carey throw away his wicket the other day with repeated caught and bowled chances. How do you not make an adjustment after almost being dismissed from an identical ball and shot the previous delivery. Not used to playing tests recently and having to concentrate for longer time periods perhaps?

Healy is horrible in Tests. She missed a straight one.

 

[Moonwatcher]

7/328 at stumps. Australia probably win the day.

Good start by us, geez that's a shame for Elysse Perry. Particularly with the low frequency of tests for women, they don't get many chances to make a ton.

 

[BGman]

Brilliant first day by our girls led by our champion ELLYSE PERRY..

Phoebe Litchfield looks a class act in the making.

She's just plain horrible. Has been for a long while. Her keeping is woeful. She drops almost as many takes as she catches. (not talking about nicks, just regulation takes) No one mentions it because it didn't cost anything, but one day it will, and mooney is a better keeper.

 

[BGman]

Healy for a duck

She has a terrible Test record, @23 with a single fifty. Pretty much the complete polar opposite to Pez.

 

[Gethelred]

I get a similar brutal joy from watching Talia McGrath bat as I used to watching Ponting.

What is this televised on?

Great 1st days play hopefully we can eek it out to 400

Hurts the coverage when one of the main camera operators has never seen a game of cricket before. Hasn't improved on yesterday either.

 

[CURVE]

Nice 50 from Sutherland, looks very comfortable.

 

[CURVE]

I think Jonassen and Healy batted too high, and Gardner and Sutherland batted too low. Gardener looked comfortable yesterday until the new ball and Sutherland looks very good today.

 

[grumbleguts]

Good dig Kingy.

 

[010203]

Good dig Kingy.

She got out just as I turned over to check the score. I'm keen to see King bowl. She's a terrific leg spinner.

Iv'e got it on 9GO in SA

 

[CURVE]

You have to be on your toes when you are the non-striker with Sutherland batting, she drives very straight.

 

[freddy mercury]

Seen a lot worse number 10s than Kim Garth.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Good recover from 6/238 currently 8/388 with Sutherland on 81

 

[Moonwatcher]

If we weren't ruining cricket we'd declare right now.

 

[CURVE]

Seen a lot worse number 10s than Kim Garth.

Haven't seen many better number 8's than Sutherland.

 

[Moonwatcher]

8/400

 

[CURVE]

Would have had her hundred by now if she didn't aim for middle stump when driving.

Hundo didn't take much longer to come
