2022 ICC Women's Cricket World Cup

[JL1985]

They’ve done well to turn it around. Good chance to qualify now.

 

[I am Boss]

Going to take a huge upset for Australia to not win it.

Hopefully we can nab 3rd place and avoid them in the semis

 

[I am Boss]

Good luck tonight, ladies!

Good luck tonight, ladies!

Looking good so far.
Catching has been poor all round but we got 293-8 (Wyatt 129, dropped five times) and SA are currently 56-3 from 14.

Haway the lasses!

 

[DieselBert]

101-6 from 27. Good catch from Sciver. SA need something extraordinary to win from here.
Sophie just got a Michelle. 152-9

 

[Brett]

Brilliant win for the girls . After the first 3 games it’s just been perfect cricket

 

[Boo]

This is an extraordinary achievement. England will be clear underdogs for the final but the momentum is massive, now.

I typically don't like the format of the 50 over world cups but it has thrown some excellent drama up because of it

Pakistan was a classic example in 1992.
First 5 games saw one win,three defeats and the no result against us where they were odds on to lose....the rest as they say is history.

Just not enough jeopardy for me

If England get to stand about on the pitch watching first, they’ve got a very slim chance, if they’ve got to sit in the stand watching first, they’ve got absolutely no chance, in my opinion. I’ve backed the Australians from the start so I’ll be watching it.

 

[TheRey]

Bizarre choice to bowl first

 

[I am Boss]

Bizarre choice to bowl first

Its not bizarre given how good Australia are chasing. They're simply a far better team than anyone else

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

Some far more qualified cricket fans to comment than I, so @TheRey @The Rat, why are bowling attacks so incapable of adapting to obvious shortcomings mid game?

Surely they can see we’re bowling too short.

Starc started off this miserable winter for English cricket


Fitting that his wife is ending it

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

haven’t seen much of the tournament given the time zone, but I do think the standard seems to be getting better and better

 

[dixonsafc]

Nat Sciver has been incredible. She doesn’t deserve to lose this but it’s not going to happen now.

Indeed. Wouldn’t it be great if they got to 50 needed off 30 without losing a wicket tho?
