Listened in for most of the day, they seemed to have total control of the match until choking in sight of the line, glad we limped over the line... Was this true that some of the Saffers were less than consoling when we started losing wickets quickly ?
Off work today and must admit first time I have watched a lot of Womens cricket and was suprised the standard was so poor. 25 extras by SA mostly from a keeper that looked like she had never kept before. If this is internatiional cricket what is there county cricket like . Not fair to judge on what could be a one off. Impressed by only a few players and fielding was poor
Sussex's Sarah Taylor is having a big impact with a decent score and helping with a run-out.
The women's World Cup has come on a lot from the days of group games being held at Lindfield Common as it was back in 1993.
Netherlands posted a massive 40 all out on that occasion from 54.2 overs.
Even if New Zealand hadn't knocked the runs off in 13.2 overs, something tells me that they wouldn't have fared well with Duckworth-Lewis had it been around then.
