You do feel those three need to be part of the rebuild. Schofield is older than the others but has to be knocking on the door now. Capsey is an underperforming talent but maybe Edwards can get the best from her.

This game looks to be heading for a draw unless there's some creative captaincy. But good to see Capsey find some form again, especially in a pressure situation too, from 34-3 to 244-4 was an excellent fightback. No doubt at all there's talent there, improved fitness and better thought processes would be the obvious place to start. I wonder if she's also performing better away from her buddy Ecclestone.

I don't know how many overs are left, but England A currently need 26 runs with 2 wickets left to win.

Aus A won by 25 runs. England lost their last 5 wickets for 12 runs with only 38 needed!!

A surprising win for Australia A in the end. I suppose in a game like this no reason not to push for a win over a draw, and England A got very close. The series overall likely had more significance for England, with a few players probably showing enough to get opportunities soon. Not sure any of the Aus A players (except Voll, obviously) are going to play much for Australia in the next few years.

Trouble is, those players were kind of the ones we already knew plenty about. Another 50 for Capsey today so signs are at least promising for her.

I admittedly don't follow English cricket that much, but where do you think Paige Scholfield sits at the moment?

She's 29 and has only played International Cricket against Ireland. I don't think she was really on the radar, but this innings might propel her forwards. Scrivens, Armitage, Capsey and Wong are probably the most likely to make the step up from this squad.
