Eng win easy!!!
|
|
By:
Not if Morgan plays!
|
|
By:
NZ bowling is weak and Eng will power them around the park!
|
|
By:
you don't need to be strong to clear a 60m boundary or to beat the infield.
only a handful of them can time a ball properly. |
|
By:
is Topley fit?
|
|
By:
Spin will win ala Afghanistan. All over by the 9th over.
|
|
By:
Hope not!
|
|
By:
Dont think the pitch will spin much
|
|
By:
ENgland will out-power NZ for sure
|
|
By:
that was a pathetic chase. I tried to install some belief in them but they let me down. Anyway. Lunchtime then the biggie at 3 o clock
|
|
By:
That pitch points to advantage ENgland.
Its a straight forward pitch No spin |
|
By:
nothing annoys me more in a run chase than when the openers score really slowly and don't get out leaving the run rate to get too high
|
|
By:
Mike they scored 41 off 5.2 overs for first wicket
|
|
By:
ive gone in loads of times when we need like 10 an over for last 10 with 4 wickets left. It's ok when you've got an aggressive batsman at the other end with you but when you have to do it all youself it's too hard.
|
|
By:
Nz's middle order isn't in great nick.
Taylor, Elliot & Anderson don't fill me with lots of confidence. Santner and Sodhi should not get much purchase on this deck ENGERLAND all the way for me! |

Poor effort from England's women
Hope the men do better |
|
By:
absolutely right trader.
it was the 14th over where they lost it, when both batters decided to get funky when it wasn't needed. |

By:
if the top tier of professional women golfers were of the same standard as international women batters, 50% of tee shots would be air shots or scuffing the ball 50 yards along the ground.

How poor is the standard of english womens cricket,apart from the two opening batswomen the rest of them have very little technique or power. I would be be interested to see how many dots and singles were recorded in the last 7 overs
|
|
By:
was on my x-trainer..watched it with them needing 43 off 42 balls with 8 wkts in hand
i like women's golf but this was absolutely abject to not be able to score at 1 a ball last time i'll ever watch this literally,i think any under 11 boy's team(from a non cricketing school) could beat this lot less than pathetic |
|
By:
In this tourny there have often been over 50 dots per innings.
|
|
By:
But you shouldnt be having that many dot balls in a T20 innings,I think that DStyle"s comparison with womens golf is spot on and really puts into context how poor womans cricket is
|
|
By:
or even womens cricket
|
|
By:
Aussies faced 48 and England 54 dot balls.
|
|
By:
I watched the end of this today (after Charlotte Edwards was out) and it was the first time I've ever watched women's cricket. The standard was very poor and it appeared to me to be the weakest standard of any female sport I've seen. I can only assume that participation levels are very low indeed. I think there were only 3 boundaries in the last 10 overs and it looked like they didn't have the power and timing to hit them.
|
|
By:
Highest standard in womens' sport is swimming imo
|
|
By:
Didn't watch all of the verdict tonight but from the bits that I saw, they were pretty scathing about the womens game!
