EnglandvIndia Women Cricket on 16 Jun

India guilty of bowling a bit too short today

Sneh Rana is an interesting selection - her last white ball game for India was in 2016. They must see something in her as a red-ball specialist?

Yeah surprised she was picked ahead of Ekta and Poonam Yadav who've been playing a lot of cricket unlike Rana.

Finally a wicket.

That was a loose shot from Hill

Tammy Beaumont is so pleasing to watch bay. That flourish tho ?

Seems less and less defensible, this

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Did Rana copied Powar's bowling action?

 

[MW1304]

So good to see some proper Test batting. And highlights on the BBC later, great stuff.

 

[cnerd123]

Are they playing on a used pitch? Shambolic if so.

Deepti should have caught that. Been a hard day in the field, can't be missing the few chances they get.

Batting has been very good. England should select these girls in the main Test team, can't go worse than the current lot.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

It is a used pitch. It looks very dry and hard.

 

[Noumenon]

Time to start thinking of the positives to take from the game.

like how the BCCI will make sure it'll be at least four years till the next one?

 

[MW1304]

I really shouldn't have said anything.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

1 wicket always brings 2

Hey, we're in for a day-nighter later this year.

 

[anil1405]

3 quick wickets and 2 reviews wasted by England.

Heather would be disappointed not to reach the three figure mark.

 

[cnerd123]

Deepti making up for that dropped catch! Phenomenal spell.

 

[MW1304]

Oh Heather. Was all set to call you the best England Test bat atm.

Pretty Englandesque collapse if truth be told.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

They're gonna get bowled out before close of play

 

[Noumenon]

250 plus puts it beyond India already.

 

[grecian]

Wow, this turned quickly, big innings for Dunkley on debut now.

 

[honestbharani]

I just wanna see Sehwag-esque fireworks from Shefali.

And why are we gambhiring the women here? Its pretty much a given that England and Australia have an advantage in the longest format in the women's game, right? Mainly coz of BCCI neglecting women's tests but their boards have been better.
