I have to say the whole tournament was entertaining. I do have to say that drop would have been unforgivable at any level, but bowling someone to win a game is much better!

So I’d been working all afternoon and needed a break.

Whilst working I’d been watching the score creep up in India’s favour, and thought it was a foregone conclusion; and yet…

I decided to take a break, and sit and have a coffee and watch the last 7-8 overs.

That was fantastic sport, with two great teams and an excellent result for England.

It didn’t matter that women were competing and not men. It didn’t matter that some of the technique looked dodgy.

It was just great sport.
