Cricket: The Women's Cricket Thread

112 ... hmm more than a thought we'd get
Quite a lot more than I thought we'd get. Given the scores posted by Indian ladies in the first 2 matches, got to believe that 113 will be easily passed.

I think most of the matches were won batting second even the ODI's
 
A ten nine-wicket defeat will be little consolation to a team that has been thumped in both series in their backyard. That cannot be taken away from our ladies!
 
11 needed in 57 balls with 9 wickets in hand. I reckon India might edge this one.
 
I really enjoyed some of the newcomers and youngsters... Bosch (although she shouldn't be opening), Goodall, Sekhukhune, Mhlaba. Jafta took some good ones, but she needs some attention if she's earmarked to take over from Chetty one day. De Klerk was a bit disappointing though. Expected more from her as an all rounder
 
When last did SA women even play a test?

I noticed that most of the senior 30+ aged players like Trisha Chetty, Shabnim Ismail etc were last capped in 2007.

No idea - I've never watched them play a test.
 
New format of cricket on the go:


To me it is an abomination. I don't see why 100 balls is much different from 120 balls.
It's not only balls but the bowling format has changed.
Interesting to see where it goes.

Yeah, I watched a match and didn't quite figure out the pattern by which bowling changes happen. Will give it a try again.
