Women's Internationals

The last women's cricket thread (that I could find) seemed to descend into grot. Maybe this will be different.

Watching the test match between England and India.

There was an excellent partnership of 150+ partnership from Mandhana and Verma, who fell four 4 short of a 100 doing a Rishabh Pant. The last hour has livened things up. India has lost five wickets in the last ten overs.

Last i checked India was doing well, then i looked back and they'd lost 5 wickets. Is there a reason they have 4 day test instead of 5?

Classic India to collapse in a heap when looking like they’ve got a solid platform. Already cost us multiple finals.

Might be money, I'm not sure. If they have similar weather, that Southampton might get, tomorrow it'll end up with just 3 days.

India 10 runs ahead with 6 wickets of their second innings left.

Might have to double-screen.

Make that five wickets.

I'm really excited about Australia's two women's tests this summer.

Planning to go to take holidays for the Ashes test in Canberra. I love women's sport, hence why my profile pic is Kristen Beams.

Great effort from Harleen Deol tonight

Looks like Sciver teed off with a fast 50. Didn't have time to watch. Shame about the rain, fortunately D/L exists for England.

Weren't there rule changes regarding this type of catches? That the fielder cannot also cross the boundary if they does so they can't take the catch something like that, most probably I am wrong.

I guess the rule change is for Men's Cricket only.

Rules should be the same for both?

Different rules are there in place just to help the development of Women's Cricket and make it a competitive sport.

That change makes literally no sense. If you're not beyond the boundary when completing the catch, it should be out, no ifs and buts.

Are Salt and Vince at the same team in The Hundred? Great chance for KP to make some custom crisps to sell to the Mum's and children.

Dunno. Would seems a stupid to remove one of the most exciting modes of dismissal from the game.
