Cricket: The Women's Cricket Thread

Well done ladies!!! Absolutely brilliant!! Record run chase, series win away from home, B team just about!! Magnificent!! MAGNIFICENT!!!!
Nothing "B" about this team. Missing only Dane and Chloe from the squad really. Not sure where Tazmin is though , maybe more of a T20 player... Bowling was a bit all over today, luckily the batters all came to the party :D

Sune missed all the games after the first game. That's 3 key players
 

Lizelle Lee becomes top-ranked ODI batter after strong run against India​

Lizelle Lee, the South Africa opening batter, has had a stellar run in the ongoing ODI series against India, and that has led to a steep rise in the women's ODI rankings, where she is now the top batter, relegating England's Tammy Beaumont to No. 2. Last week, after scoring 83* in the series opener, Lee had moved up from No. 11 to eighth, and since then, a run of 4, 132* and 69 has seen her zoom through even as South Africa have taken a winning 3-1 lead in the series.

Lee, the only South African ever to top that table, had earlier been the best in the world in June 2018 after scoring 92* and 117 against England, though South Africa had lost that series 2-1.

Dane, Chloe and Klaas, then Sune from the 3rd and 4th ODI's as well as Chetty! 5 Players... in the squad isn't playing. Dane geniune all rounder, Chloe batting all rounder, Klaas bowler, Sune genuine allrounder, Chetty keeper, those are significant omissions!!


ICC ODI rankings:
Dane ranked 8th and Sune 18th on all rounders list
Batting rankings Dane 27th, Chloe 30th, Sune 34th, Chetty 40th,
Bowlers rankings Dane 22nd, Sune 33rd, Klaas 37th, Chloe 61st

So I missed only Klaas, together with Dane and Chloe, who had no hand in the series win. Just because Sune and Chetty didn't play the last 2 , you're calling this a series win by a B team :D I'm sure the ladies will have much to say about that :D :D

Anyway, lets not distract from the amazing cricket the ladies have been playing. Let's hope they make it 4-1 tomorrow and then take that momentum into the T20s :thumbsup:
 
Sushma Verma out LBW, shocking decision IMHO, going down leg, would have missed 4 stumps. Everyone surprised including the appealing bowler, India 139/5 after 39 overs. India in a bit of trouble. Harmanpreet retired hurt on 30(55) so if she can't bat, India are effectively 139/6

EDIT: I really don't understand why there's no DRS? The ICC can't claim to be serious about the women's game and at the same time have no DRS.
 
Ismail to Goswami, no run
Slower ball, pokes at it. Takes an edge and the keeper drops it! Sticks her right hand out to pocket it. But in and out. Jafta gives Goswami a reprieve
Sharp chance but you would expect her to take that...
 
India 179/8 as we head into the final couple of overs. Ladies have been super sharp today. You would expect them to chase this total down with ease but no Lizelle and Goswami back for India.
