ODI Women’s Cricket World Cup 2022

[akkaps]

India batting first against the English today. Should be a good tight one today

 

[akkaps]

This is a disaster

 

[cats_09]

And it gets worse for India

 

[DEVO]

What I'm seeing is that none of the teams are good enough or consistent enough to compete with Australia, except maybe South Africa, but their performances against Pakistan and Bangladesh suggest they may struggle as well.

Australia look highly likely to make it to the finals, with 4 wins already and a match against Bangladesh to come.

If South Africa were to beat New Zealand tomorrow, they would be 4-0, and well ahead of the rest of the pack who have 2 or more losses. But a loss to New Zealand would bring them back to the rest of the pack of 5 teams vying for the remaining 3 spots (assuming Australia makes it) in the finals.

It looks very much like the hosts or the reigning champions won't make the semi finals.

 

[cats_09]

WI struggling against Bangladesh, and not enjoying the constant spin bowling - 6/62 after 32 overs

 

[DEVO]

Bangladesh is improving as the competition progresses, currently have the Windies at 6/62 at the end of the 32nd over.

A big win here and perhaps they enter the frame for a Semi-Final spot.

 

[akkaps]

Massive upset on the cards here. Windies have only scores 8/1 in the past ten over. wtf?

They don't like spin

 

[akkaps]

They don't like spin

Obviously, but I've seen something this bad.

 

[cats_09]

Obviously, but I've seen something this bad.

Seems they don't sweep or at least haven't tried and instead it's predominantly about trying to hit straight

The run out was good fielding & total stupidity by Nation - though it felt like a run out was more likely than not

The Windies have two more games after this, would expect the same thing from those next two teams then
The wicket of Stefanie Taylor was probably the best one of them all,

 

[DEVO]

Looks like Bangladesh have thrown away a golden opportunity to sneak a second victory. Currently 6/85 in the 33rd.

 

[DEVO]

13 runs required
18 deliveries remaining
1 wicket in hand

it's getting tense out there

 

[DEVO]

three wides in the last eight deliveries

 

[DEVO]

Akter is more frustrating than Perry, she is blocking deliveries in the final overs.

 

[DEVO]

Eight required in the final over.

 

[DEVO]

Bowled! Bangladesh all out 136. Windies win by 4 runs.

 

[Scorpus]

Quite a finish to that one, Bangladesh wanting to attempt suicidal twos to avoid the #11 being on strike, who eventually does and gets bowled straight away

Bangladesh lost the game early in their batting innings, too many of their top order were too conservative and too slow meaning they were throwing away their wickets late trying to win the game.

For a team that is currently undefeated $7.00 are pretty high odds.
