South Africa are real contenders here this tournament.

They scored 309.. in 40 OVERS in a rain interrupted match. Needless to say they won easily.

The groundsmen were the stars getting that pitch playable just before cut-off ! One of the most irritatingly rain-interrupted matches ever.

Really enjoying BBC Test Match Special radio coverage of these matches. Steven Finn is class.
 
Englands women, so like the men particularly pre Stokes/McCallum era, great start, Aussie bowling gets tighter do 5 top order batters give their wickets away, a couple of lower order batters show what an easy wicket it is to bat on snd add runs, then they give their wickets away. The giggling middle class jolly hockey sticks school girls. Hard as nails Aussies stay cool, keep cool and will knock the runs off with ease well, Sophie Ecclestone not withstanding)

They're hardly as shite as you're making them out to be. As of now they're undefeated. They've beaten arguably the second best team in India and they've thrashed the next best team in South Africa.

Australia are a level above for everyone but I still think we can beat them on our day. Bit like the ashes a few years back.

Well at 24 for 3 Aussies im wishing you’d not responded and then I could have quietly deleted my post and moved on. As you know my most was actually designed to motivate the girls, which it clearly has. And just a side note we would have been smashed by Sri Lanka last time we batter, but for the Manchester type rain

Their current pair and the next batswoman coming (McGrath) are some of the best players in the women's Hundred so there's still time for England to bottle it.

I would definitely see Aussies as clear favourites, but then again I am as pessimistic about England cricket teams as I used to be about City, back in the day. They are middle class English giggles, Lauren bell just bowled a wide and giggles about it, not exactly a hard winning mentality

Edit hopefully England win and piss Nasser off

To be fair a Lauren Bell playful giggle might unsettle some of the Aussie ladies in the same way I might find it distracting...

More cunning than you think.
 
Dunno who is worse, Hussein who seems to want everyone apart from England to do well, or that gravel voiced aussie mel fucking jones
 
Australia are missing Healy today/maybe the rest of the tournament - do England have the depth to replace someone as important to their own side?
