Cricket: The Women's Cricket Thread

Brilliant!! JUST brilliant!!! A performance every South African can be extremely proud of! Well done ladies!!!
 
Anneke Bosch, the Player of the Match. She says, "Mignon and I tried to keep it simple, not rush anything. We did well to not rotate strike and be in there. Unreal to get my first fifty and that too in India. I've always liked batting against spin. My favourite moment has been just winning."
 
Lizelle Lee, Player of the Series. She says, "It's a great thing we won in four games, so was a good opportunity to show the other girls what they can do.

"There's always room for improvement. Girls have been working hard. Gives me pleasure seeing the youngsters do well. Super proud of all our bowlers.

"This was a series our middle order did really well. Some other positives too,"

Sune Luus, the winning captain: "For us coming today, we wanted to stamp our authority on the series win a 4-1 win.

"We pride ourselves on our bowling attack. The girls, especially the young ones, did an exceptional job. We always talk about our middle order coming through and supporting the opening pair. They did exceptionally well too. Over five games, it was an allround performance.

"Anneke is a character in our team, but we are lucky to have her. Phenomenal knock today, hopefully more to come."
