*Official* 2024 Women's T20 World Cup thread

Good catch

There were a lot of dropped catches in both games. Teams struggling to get past 100 despite the fielding generally being pretty average. Most noticeable thing in these two games was the batters inability to put the bad balls away to the boundary. I know the pitches are slow, but I suspect it might be a bit different when the big 3 show up over the next couple of days.

Big game today with WI v SA, that could well decide who qualifies from this group for the semis along with England (who you'd expect to be one of the top 2).

 

[Molehill]

Joseph there with one of the worst T20 innings I've seen. 4 off 14 balls, that 4 being an edge through the slips which should've been stopped (straight after being dropped there). Played and missed at the majority of her balls and looked utterly inept.

 

[Stefan9]

Decent start from the SA ladies.

 

[Stefan9]

SA on top here. WI 62/5

 

[_Ed_]

Handy little partnership from these two, but they need to accelerate now to get something defendable.

Edit: Whoops...

 

[_Ed_]

Good knock by Taylor, but I reckon they're 15 to 20 short.

I don’t think we have enough on the board

Laura is batting freely

 

[_Ed_]

She's hard to stop when she's playing like this. Great to watch (for a neutral).

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

The ball is getting older, and the field spread out, hoping the RRR increases. We need to pick up wickets though.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Emphatic win for SA, with a decent NRR in tow. They've played at a level worthy of last tournament's finalists.

 

[Stefan9]

Great start from the ladies. Comprehensive. Settings us up well in the group.

 

[Heboric]

Well done ladies, cant complain with a 10 wicket win

 

[Molehill]

Decent start from NZ, need to keep this going as loser of this match will find it tough to qualify.

Whoops, wheels coming off.

 

[honestbharani]

We are losing this one, aren't we? Kiwis always beat us in T20 WCs.
