And through to the Semi finals in 3rd place.

Thanks Joe. Take a blow mate.

Vincey? Next up Mush

Bit harsh, I know he’s not done good but no need for violence…

Moves Vincey closer to the Captaincy as well then
:crazy_face:

They’re going to get hammered by Australia, again…

The Australian fielding will be better than the Saffers

Hmm, FTA at 02:00, I probably still won’t watch it…

Aussies untroubled @ 160-0 after 29 overs.

We’ll be chasing 300+.

Edit 160-1.

We’ll be chasing 299+.

England only need 357 to win @ 7.14 per over.

Game on! šŸ¤¦šŸ»

Bowling fell apart, more, around the 40 over mark.

England won the toss and lost the game by letting the Aussies bat first…

Women’s World Cup final: Australia outclass England to take title -

We were let down down by our bowling, especially the last 10 overs.

Our top order also failed to capitalise on decent starts. Sciver needed support and we just ran out of ammunition.

Dropped a couple of chances at crucial times too.

So apart from our bowling, batting and fielding we might have won that.

Rob Key is expected to be announced as the new managing director of the England men’s team, replacing Ashley Giles. Could be an interesting choice, I’ve got a lot of time for him. He was a decent, perhaps underrated player, who was maybe unlucky not to have played more Tests. England had several good opening batsmen to choose from during his career. Captained Kent very well for many years, and is well respected by his peers by all accounts. It would be a bit of a left field appointment and a refreshing break from the old boys network, one of whom usually gets shooed in.
