Win this and the Ashes are ours

Win this and the Ashes are ours

Only by possession and results. Bazball is always the true winner

Loving that we are giving both England and New Zealandthe shits at the same time.

Haven't seen it reported anywhere but in case anybody's wondering about Vlaeminck's progress, she hurt her shoulder while bowling in Australia A's win yesterday.

Hypocaust on Twitter said it was from a fall, but the video below clearly shows her going down in pain before hitting the deck. Left shoulder too, so all the more innocuous. Adding to the bizarity of the delivery, she got the wicket of Bryony Smith (who then does a Homer-style retreat).

If I stand to be corrected searching through Cricinfo, there has never been an international womens T20I played on this ground?

There has been one: 2009 T20 WC semi final between England and Australia.

Australia Women have won the toss and have opted to field

 

[NYRB]

Decent powerplay for England 54/0 after 6

 

[NYRB]

Aussies seem a bit shaky in the field today.

 

[NYRB]

Sutherland is having an outstanding game so far.

 

[NYRB]

Gibson never looked comfortable against Perry there.

 

[NYRB]

England gone from 100/1 to 119/6 . Colapso

 

[NYRB]

25 off Schutts 3rd over and thats a big one for England.

 

[NYRB]

Commentary mentioned that was the most runs conceded by Australian side (womens) ever in a T20 game

 

[NYRB]

Sutherland gets her 3rd wicket of the game.

 

[NYRB]

England with a bit of momentum

Over 16-19, has seen 62 runs for the loss of 1 wicket.

 

[NYRB]

Englands score of 184 now, is the highest score ever by them against Australia specifically

 

[NYRB]

England post 186 in the 2nd T20I and that is a decent score. But Australias lineup is a powerful batting lineup.

Fast outfield as well at The Oval.

 

[NYRB]

Would be the 2nd most highest successful chase in the womens game if Australia were to do it.

 

[NYRB]

if Australia were to chase it down, would be the highest chase in England

 

[Teen Wolf]

Not the first time Sue Redfern has been absolutely hopeless as the 3rd umpire. Pudding for guts, pudding for brains.

Don't know what it's gonna take for Schutt to wake up and realise when her half-track leg cutter isn't working. Outdid her 0/43, 0/43 and 0/44 off 4 overs in India last year with 0/41 off 3 overs tonight. A bowler who only had one 0/30+ game in her first 84 matches, gone on to have 4 in her last 14.

Sutherland having a great tour so far, more accurately, other than not just knocking round the easy winning single last match.

 

[NYRB]

Beautiful from Healy behind point

 

[NYRB]

I reckon Australias fielding tonight cost them about 15 runs on the board
