Ashes 2021-22

[NTA]

@donsteppa England went too hard instead of gathering their breath. Dunkley could have taken an over off then crushed it.

Now the tail after playing at balls they don't need to.

A draw means England can still win the Ashes. A loss ends the series in competitive terms.

This conference every fucking delivery is like Sri Lanka in ODI. Stop them, umpires

Weird field. Two, now three around the bat and everyone else on the fence.

When they say in/out field, it doesn't get much more so than that.

[NTA]

Now surrounded. 2 to go

[NTA]

England survive.

Ashes still alive.

[Donsteppa]

Nicely saved by Kate Cross. Meg Lanning was at least half an over too slow in recognising the obvious and bringing more of the field up into catching positions.

Sounds like the best test match of the entire oz summer. I mean at least both teams were willing to make it a contest and go for a win. Hats off to the women keeping the spirit alive.

[NTA]

@siam should be more Women's Tests.

@nta wouldn't go that far, there's only so many 113km/h half volleys one can watch...😉 but good on them for playing to get the most out of the game.

@siam 😄 they're not going to get better unless they play more of it.

@nta totally agree mate. I spent a bit of time playing with and against Molly Strano and Sophie Molyneux about 4 years ago and they were skilful then, but the improvements have been astronomical. Great chicks too!

(apologies for the name drop but those girls were way cool and molly played the most technically perfect reverse sweep I've ever seen)
