Hhhmmmm. I'm not sure about this. Stunning debut in Karachi, but these are very different conditions. Australia will target him I'd have thought.

England Ladies have a mammoth task on their hand to even get level in the first innings, 473 is huge!

Not a bad start ... 218/2 Still 255 behind tho

Suddenly a 5 day test doesn’t seem long enough.
England will have to still be batting by tea tomorrow to have any chance.

Good to see England picking up where they left off. Confident stuff and some superb batting. Suspect this will end in a draw but you never know, they could go into a wild ODI mode for the last couple days depending on how close things are.

I presume that’s a mummy hundred?
Or is it still a daddy hundred. It’s difficult to navigate these woke choppy waters. 😊

5th highest ever score in women’s cricket!

 

[AndyRM]

Pretty impressive stuff from both sides.

Been trying to get tickets to Lords or Old Trafford, no chance. Nabbed a couple of members returns for the Ashes a few years back so still hoping ...

Is it my imagination or does womens cricket have lots of breaks?

Is it my imagination or does womens golf have lots of breaks?

No idea, never watch golf.

Women's cricket has the same amount of breaks as the men's game I imagine
