She can bat as well

Yeah, nah.

When I said our batting poor ! I can name 3 exceptions Healy with a rapid 29
Perry with 60 and King with 13 which good for tail and helped score to 180 vs maybe 160
2 bowlers were exceptional Alana King who really rips her wrist spin leggies and got 4-25 Also Garth with very accurate off cutters 3 wickets
The other 7 need to lift their game a bit esp Sutherland who bowled 2 beamers in one over which means she can't bowl any more in the match

Last one was a dud call.

Last one was a dud call.

Even the pommie commentator on the BBC said it was a bad call by the umpire

Another poor batting performance by our women unfolding in Hobart (4 for 59) and this time it may hurt because we can't keep on relying on our fielding/bowling to come to the rescue

Our girls game 3
We lose 3 wickets in the 10 over power play
Lichfield the leg side strangle out for 15 a bit unlucky
But Perry out for 2 hitting ball straight to backward square leg and Healy down the throat of deep mid wicket
These girls must not take notice of where the field is ?
Suicidal and now Sutherland drills ball direct to mid off
Now 4-60 really dumb batting
Who the hell is our batting coach

Doubt we will. Survive this one

Don't get how Georgia Voll has not been selected for a single one of these ODI's. She's played 3 ODI's against India and scored 101 in the second and averaged 86 across the series (her debut series as well btw). Had been pretty much carrying most of Sydney Thunder's batting during the WBBL and scored 57 for the Governor General's XI against this very England line-up. Our line-up has 3 batters like 4 all-rounders and 4 bowlers (2 or 3 can bat too). Seems pointless to have McGrath batting at 7 and not even bowling.

The poms are so bitter as we have dominated them for for most of the last 50 years .They genuinely think we only win by cheating as the Barmy army will chant next summer

 

[Tigerwould]

Don't ever remember the media sledging starting a year out.
The Poms have started it, but it might backfire on them again.

 

[Stevec]

I see how we do well with the women's ashes
If 4 top order fail the next 3 will succeed
Mooney 50 ,Gardener 102 ,McGrath 56
7-262 better than 4-59
We bat deep !

 

[Stevec]

Aussie girls 8 -308 after 50 overs
Georgia Wareham she can really bat 38 off 12balls

 

[jadtiger]

Wonderful finish to the innings from 4/59 and really struggling to destroying the english bowling in the last 10 overs to score 8/308.

 

[happy_tiger]

Australia win by 86 runs .....went through them like the salts

 

[Stevec]

Not only did Ash Gardener get her first ton in any format for Australia but takes a catch that's a contender for catch of the year mens or women's wow
We are now 6pts to nil up
For England to regain the Ashes they need to win all 3 T20's and the test

Replying to my idiotic comment
At 4-59 I thought we lose this one for sure
What the hell do I know !

Hate to be pedantic Steve, but you'r wrong. Australia has dominated England for most of the last 100 years.

You where not the only one at that stage to be annoyed because i was furious with the lack of discipline in the top order
