*Official* Women's Ashes 2023

[_Ed_]

Healy's gone now too! England have all the momentum in this series at the moment, which I would never have predicted.

 

[Himannv]

Healy gone. Really soft dismissal IMO.

 

[Himannv]

I think it's Litchfield that's out. Mooney batted at four in the last game (and top-scored with 81 not out), so she'll probably be in next.

Ah, that changes my perspective of the situation a bit.

Mooney is top draw.

 

[Himannv]

Mooney and McGrath both gone now. England on top at the moment.

Can't really count the Aussies out though - Gardner and Perry at the crease.

 

[Himannv]

Gardner dropped by Ecclestone. She's looking to make the most of her opportunity now.

Good 50 from Perry considering the situation. England need to change their line to her, she's scored a lot on the leg side.

 

[weeman27bob]

Could really do with breaking this partnership soon

 

[_Ed_]

Gardner gone. She was looking pretty dangerous.

 

[_Ed_]

Unusual figures of 6-0-45-3 for Bell, especially considering the overall run rate is under 5.

 

[kevinw]

Staring down the barrel of a 280 chase which will be some achievement.

 

[_Ed_]

Sutherland's been superb here.

 

[weeman27bob]

Ashes winning partnership here.

 

[_Ed_]

Perry falls within sight of a hundred!

 

[_Ed_]

And Sutherland soon after. Amazing job by Ecclestone to get rid of both set batters in the same over.

 

[kevinw]

This may be the Ashes winning over.

 

[Spark]

Lanning is probably the most underrated sportsman in Australia for the last ten years but Haynes not being there too means there's a real leadership gap in the team; a lot of talent but not enough senior pros IMO

In saying that Wareham might make a fool out of me for saying that

 

[kevinw]

REMEMBER THE NAME

 

[Spark]

Maybe not the best idea to give Bell this last over

It's a really good Tom Curran impression. Pace on, length. Pace off, length.

 

[_Ed_]

Wareham! Holy ****.

That's her new highest score in international cricket. I had no idea she could bat like that.

 

[Aidan11]

282/7.

That's a good score.
