Women's Ashes, July 21-Aug 31

[Aidan11]

Don't suppose there's any rain due at the ground.

[dan08]

Women's tests have 103 overs a day so they only end up around 40 overs shorter than a men's test.

[dan08]

Used to be our women that were good and the men who were hopeless. Other way round now.

[dan08]

Could be 60 all out here.

[hopeforthebest]

Could be 60 all out here.

It's definitely becoming a rout.

[Aidan11]

Aw Jeez I only turned away for 10 minutes.

We seem to have just frozen.

[GarlicJam]

.

Quick!




Look at that --------->

[Aidan11]

This is our highest partnership of the match.

[Aidan11]

I have to say I'm glad I'm not watching this.

Bad enough following on cricinfo.

[Durhamfootman]

I'm liking the 15 runs off 123 balls, and 11 runs scored off the last 10 overs. Pity the top order couldn't do that as well

how long do they have to try and hang on for?

bet they're really glad that only 4 points are available for a win now otherwise the ashes would be definitely gone rather that still having the outside chance of retaining them. They have to find a way to hang on

although............. I'm only bothered about the women when the men do badly. The men have won back the ashes so I suddenly find myself completely untroubled by the parlous position of the women

41 overs according to Sky.

[Durhamfootman]

long time

better to pray for rain, I think

[Durhamfootman]

10 overs with a new ball too, in the unlikely even that Aus need to take it

[budgetmeansbudget]

Just tuned in to watch an over or two, batsman ducks a supposed bouncer, and gets bowled, hilarious. I played a fair bit of club cricket in my time, have never seen a dismissal as bad as that. Embarrassingly awful, a quick reminder for me, that women's cricket is truly awful.
