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

[010203]

Richie Benaud used to say focus about spinning the ball before worrying about line and length. That Alana King wicket is an example of what Richie was on about.

Katey Martin back on 7

Dunkley on fire

 

[cats_09]

Can't afford to give Dunkley something she can get under and swing her arms through

 

[Moonwatcher]

Katey Martin back on 7

She doesn't annoy you?

 

[Headless]

Shot.

 

[010203]

That's a fine shot by Heather Knight.

 

[cats_09]

Do we bring Wareham on from the other end?

 

[010203]

She doesn't annoy you?

No. I find her entertaining.

 

[Moonwatcher]

They've got the runrate

 

[Headless]

That's a fine shot by Heather Knight.

Glorious shot.

Zampa & Wareham are similar type leg bowlers where it's more about control than a lot of turn

With how much turn/spin King gets, it's why we can play both her & Wareham in the same side as they each offer something slightly different

You can play Wolfy as a top order batter in T20's to fit her and King in the same team. King is Warnie like in how she gives it a rip.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Dunkley is the wicket they need

 

[Headless]

This is actually getting a bit silly now.

 

[troybe]

Smoked

 

[Jimthegreat]

Do we actually have any fielders out there?

 

[jhong]

Need to get a wicket .

 

[Moonwatcher]

Do we actually have any fielders out there?

Not in the stands

 

[Jimthegreat]

Not in the stands

Not all going for 6. There's so many going for 4 and all I see is green grass.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Good changes of pace from Sutherland

Not all going for 6. There's so many going for 4 and all I see is green grass.

Can only have 4 on the boundary - looks like they're trying to stack one side but these two are good at hitting the gaps

 

[010203]

Well played Sophia Dunkley, a quality and much needed 50 for her team.

 

[Plugger35]

A great fifty from Dunkley, she is keeping England's slim Ashes hopes alive.

 

[010203]

If Charlie Dean does bat, she'd be well advised to stay in her crease at the non strikers end until the bowler has released the ball.
