We can make a comeback in the short-form stuff :ph34r:

In all seriousness though, why only the single Test in each series? Australia Women have played 71 Tests in 80 years, which, coincidentally enough, is the same amount of Tests that the Men's side have played since Ellyse Perry debuted in February 2008.

We have that many bloody ODI and T20 series against NZ and England every year that surely one could be cancelled for a 4 day game here and there, if the issue is related to getting time off work.

Not quite in the same league as her catch, but not bad


Better than Bairsow, CK or Jos with the gloves, serious question?

Nice bit of work but it wouldn't be out of place to see that sort of stumping in club cricket even.

So yeah, better than Bairstow.

She's up to the stumps and actually caught the ball, hence must be better than CK as well.

I was really thinking over-all, not just that one incident, she really does seem to have very good hands, and she gets extra points for not wearing pads.

The NSW women's keeper has been playing for our club's A grade side this season, because the tunzers play of a Sunday and she wanted extra practice. She's a terrific keeper, not that I've seen a lot of her playing. The bloke skippering the side and doing an inferior job to one of his predecessors (me) plays indoor with her boyfriend and signed her up.

she was up to the stumps to the medium pacers without pads on, on a fairly up and down deck in the last few overs of a one dayer on Saturday. Glove work was top shelf.

Lol

Srs though, this girl is a very very good keeper. She's made a few runs as well, batting in the middle/ lower order. Blokes say she hasn't got much power but a good technique, as you'd expect I suppose.

Alyssa Healy? My sister plays grade cricket with her. Top keeper, better than Fields.
