It can match the choke in the Women's BBL I just witnessed then. SS were 151-4 after 17 overs needing 172 for victory.......they finished on 160-9!!
An Indian spinner completely missed the pitch twice in an over

Dropped into a ladies 1st grade game on the weekend to see a friend and the standard was horrendous with much of the bowling being just awful

My friend knows far more about it and says that the standard is going backwards at club level

We may well have lost anyway, but that Mandhana non-review is bothering me even more now.
Yeah that was a bit of a mystery tstl but as you say it probably didn't matter in the end. I think it was quite a good deck for batting and those early
wickets we lost really cost us as we probably needed 260+ to have a decent shout.

I think there's a big drop off from the real top players to those at graded level. I once found myself watching Knight batting in a County game (I should've been watching my daughter on a nearby pitch but this was mesmerizing). She was just different class to the opposition and made the most effortless ton I've ever seen.

But the one thing that has changed is the level of participation which is growing massively, and that can only be a good thing in finding the top talent.

Yeah I don’t rate Capsey either. Just can’t see what the hype is all about. She’s almost always failed whenever I’ve watched her.
