Ha Ha, I am not so sure my team can get past the Crimettes. We have beaten them once in "live" t20 and Odi's before but we are really big time underdogs.

To this day I will never understand how Saf choked that final.
All pressure on them. Hopefully we can play with out pressure.

If any of the first 3 drops were taken I suspect England could’ve won, but would hardly have deserved it. Also paid for a lacklustre batting display against Bangladesh which did for their NRR.
The Aussies were always big faves, but even more so now. Such a disappointing effort from England, but their squad always seemed imbalanced. Some really need to work on basic fielding and fitness.

Crimettes - great name!

WI hadn’t beaten England in a T20 outside the Caribbean for 10 years….
There’s always a chance, especially if the likes of Wolvaardt or Kapp get going.

Yeah, really could go either way. We haven't played them in T20s since we toured there in September/October 2022 - we won that series 4-1, but that was against a weaker line-up than this.
They knocked us out in the semi-finals (by six runs) when they won this tournament in 2016.

"Within the West Indies, I think a lot of the islands can always be against each other, but the one thing that does bring the entire West Indies together is cricket and the passion that the people have for the game is massive. It just brings our whole region together as one for the only time probably."- Hayley Matthews

I still think that if there's any year that Aus are vulnerable it's this year.

I don't think anyone cares about losing Vlaeminck. Australia have so many bowlers Perry doesn't have to bowl and Darcie Brown only bowled one over in each of her matches.
Healy is a bigger loss. Grace Harris did a good job opening last game and will probably do it again. There is a lot of depth when you can have Sutherland at 8.

I always thought England were most vulnerable against the WI because they have some big hitters who if they get away could cause some damage. That was helped by a poor first over from Bell and astonishingly awful fielding. What Aus have though is the metronomic accuracy of Schutt up front who just doesn't give anything away, a far more reliable fielding unit and a stupidly long batting line up. I expect Aus to win again and do it easily.
England in particular now need a long hard look at what is going on. Is Lewis the right coach? Why is there no obvious successor to Knight (I think that was a major factor in the field yesterday)? Why are some players so out of shape (particularly ones who didn't use to be)? One trophy now in 15 years (thanks to an Indian implosion) is poor when there's so little competition.

I have to like the role Hartley gave herself as Pakistan's spinners coach when David Parsons was really the spin bowling coach and she was the assistant.

Fair play to her for calling it out despite the fact she still must be close to a number of those players. She rightly pointed out that Australia don't pick Wellington because her fitness levels are not great, despite the fact she's a class bowler.
Is it a coincidence that Capsey and Ecclestone are best mates?
