Women's Ashes, the T20s. January 20-25

[jhong]

Does Mooney yell "catch" every time the ball is hit in the air, regardless of its proximity to a fielder

I laugh when someone yells catch it and the ball is running along the ground .

 

[Moonwatcher]

wow

 

[eth-dog]

Needed a direct hit

Nope

 

[cats_09]

With 5 wickets between them tonight, is it safe to say that we'll see our twin leg spinners play together for the remainder of this series

England has no answer for either of them

 

[Moonwatcher]

Diamond duck?

 

[010203]

A diamond duck.

 

[NYRB]

Sarah Glenn out for a diamond duck

 

[cats_09]

After a not so good first over, it's pleasing to see how Sutherland has responded

 

[Moonwatcher]

England have had a 2nd ball duck, a 1st ball duck and a 0th ball duck tonight.

 

[cats_09]

So umm, following the test match - is it captain Healy, captain McGrath or both together that'll lift the trophy?

 

[eth-dog]

And that's the Ashes.

Healy

 

[010203]

Comprehensive from Australia and those faces in the English dugout said it all.

 

[troybe]

Way too strong Good win

Healy

 

[jhong]

Healy can put her feet up and watch the rest of the series . , we got this . Well done Ladies , retained the ashes .

 

[cats_09]

I know a white wash would be ideal, but surely we now rest both Healy & Gardner for the remaining two T20s to see if they'll be available for the test match - no reason to rush either back at this stage

 

[NYRB]

Aussies retain the Ashes!

 

[Plugger35]

The Ashes decided after just 3 ODIs and one T20, not great for the rest of the T20s and the test match now being dead rubbers.

 

[CURVE]

If King gets 3 wickets in her last over does she wrap up POTS?

Nope. Despite not playing Gardner is still in front.

 

[cats_09]

They had this ready to hit send on

 

[TigerCraig]

Good win, but it's one of my arguments why the test should be in middle. Playing it last means it's either a dead rubber, or the team.leading can sandbag for a draw

Still can watch for a whitewash but if England win the next T20 or there's a wash out then meh.

 

[eth-dog]

Nope. Despite not playing Gardner is still in front.

I respectively disagree. King has been excellent in all four games. Gardner missing puts King ahead.

Just like they did with warnie

English dont have a clue against leg-spin
