3runs short. That last over (26) for Australia won this match. After the previous ODI I am very surprised Glenn came in before Cross. Mel Jones commentating at the end on Australia winning the ashes was particularly grating, horrible

Not watched all of it admittedly but when I was watching earlier there was a wide where the England batter said she'd actually touched it so they missed out on an extra ball at the of the over. Am I right in remembering that?

I think in the bigger picture the Aussies no longer look invincible. At all. That's the most important takeaway message.

Yep. This is the first time they've come away with a bloodied nose in a long, long time. They barely lose any games at all. Let alone the three on the bounce they have this series.

They're one of the most dominant teams in all of sport if you look at the 'big' sports.

No not really Woeful fielding,dropped catches and so on Makes me fume when they want to be treated as equals Aussies looked fitter,faster and smarter..I think the Iranians have got it right shoes off and a damn good thwacking..

I'm thinking more medium term really. The next T20 world cup (2024),and the next fifty-over world cup (2025), i.e. the proper world cup as far as I'm concerned.
