Good performance from the ladies.

Our chicketers are playing a three day practice match vs England A today. Can anyone find live updates or scores?

 

[sand_man]

No recap for day 3 as yet. When is day 3? Today or yesterday?

 

[Luke7777]

Good luck to the team over the next 4 (hopefully) days

Yeah indeed. I am fully expecting them to lose but only because from a test experience perspective, they are on a hiding to nothing against England. Still, hopefully there will be some good individual performances to cheer.

no Ismail ?

no Ismail ?

Interesting. Saving her for the limited overs series maybe? They may be identifying the ODI and T20's as more important than a 1 off test.

She's the only one that can catch a ball

Too much swing

Great fightback from the ladies. Very difficult game for them, last test 8 years ago.

ICC should be ashamed how they have let the women's test game almost disappear.

100 for Kapp ... well done girl !!

 

[Dan C]

150 for Kapp

 

[Agent_Smith]

Good stuff from the ladies. I reckon they're about 100 short of a decent total against this English batting lineup but not a horrible score. A few early wickets and it will make it very interesting.

Amazing stuff from Marizanne Kapp. If only she had some decent backup, 400 could easily have been on the cards. Hopefully they come out firing tomorrow with the new ball.

 

[3WA]

Eng 86/2 and good batting conditions. Gotta say the advantage is slightly with them.

Pity about the dropped catch. I'd rather not give Knight too many lives.....
