This is a good point…

So tomorrow sees the 3rd edition of the WIPL start. Some English talent on display so will be interesting to see how they go.

Not been on for a while and only just seen that Charlie Dean is an RCB player! Missed it!

1st T20I 🇦🇺
2nd T20I 🇦🇺
3rd T20I 🇦🇺

1st ODI 🇦🇺
2nd ODI 🇦🇺
3rd ODI 🇦🇺

Test 🇦🇺

Fair to say, it’s a whitewash! 16-0 to the Aussies! 😩👏

England MUST now look to the future and get some fresh faces in for the series vs the West Indies later this Summer.

😩

Alana King, Player of the Series! 👏
Couldn’t get in the side before the Ashes, now she will never be out of the side!

Got to applaud her skills! 👏👏

Maia Bouchier, along with many England players, has had a torrid ashes series with the bat. Hopefully she can come back stronger.

The whole Ashes just highlights that beating a NZ or Pakistan or SA doesn’t mean too much…!

🏳️🏳️🏳️🏳️🏳️🏳️🏳️

So England are almost done in Australia, waving that white flag to get them back onto UK shores!

Can’t say anything more than it has been a series to forget on many accounts! Summed up by Ryana M-G having to do press duties on TV! 😩

Can England get on the board?

Great to see L Smith get a chance. Filer too. Bouchier out of Knick so Capsey has another opportunity.

Come on England! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

So England are narrowly beaten today by Australia. The rain won in the end on what would have been a real close last 5 balls!

Credit to England for bouncing back and making that margin smaller. Best game of the series so far.

3. England’s top order needs a shake up in my opinion. Few players waiting to take those spots.

4. Englands reliable spinners haven’t come to the party. Why?

5. England’s fielding has been really poor. Why?

Sorry to be negative… 😢🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

2/2

Just a few points to raise after todays loss v Australia and about the series so far:

1. England picked the same squad as per there WT20 exit. Should changes have been made?

2. Can England be guilty of playing players because they have to?

1/2

So will England have any joy in the T20 series starting tomorrow morning? The answer is they HAVE too in order to stay alive! Game by game!

Some ridiculous individual performances from the Aussies haunt England again, whoever bowled out for the 3rd time in a row. Ash Gardner having a series to remember as well as Alana King doing all sorts. She has to play the T20’s!

Australia 🇦🇺- 6
England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿- 0

Not wrong here. Clearly not a lot of confidence in the bench.

Remember the CWG clearly. Was it Davies, Cross and Smith who went unused?

There’s quite a lot out there who keep getting over looked! Or given a brief go and then turned back on

HUGE game for England tonight! Can they pull off a win to make it 4-2 rather than 6-0? Feel Glenn should be in the side…

Another frustrating day for England…
They’d have been boosted by bowling Australia out for 180 but to not then back that up with the bat can only be frustrating.

If Australia win the last ODI you’d say that’s curtains for the WAshes 😢🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Waking up to the news that England lose the first ODI v Australia.

Get the vibe that 204 just wasn’t enough, not against a ‘bat all the way down to 9’ side like Australia. Improvements to be made.

So that WAshes isn’t far away! Very excited! What are people’s predictions?

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿or🇦🇺

So England announce their Ashes squads across the 3 formats. No real surprises given the dominance of the recent SA series.

Good to see MacDonald-Gay keep her test place. Surprised that Dunkley keeps getting picked however imagine she’ll be more of a squad player.

Bring on the Aussies…!

What a result for England! They’d have been full of confidence of getting the win, but to do it in that manner is somewhat brilliant!

Great to see Lauren Bell back bowling well. Contributors throughout the whole match!

👏👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Congratulations to both Dani Gibson & Sarah Bryce for being drafted today by Gujurat & Delhi respectively. 👏👏

And now Sciver-Brunt casually strolls to another 💯

Maia Bouchier take a bow!! 100 on debut! 👏👏

Great session for England. Bouchier taking test cricket in her stride

Terrible start here from SA. Beaumont and Bouchier now away!

England win the toss and bat and a debut for Ryana MacDonald-Gay in Kate Cross’ absence! What a time for her to go and show off her talents on the biggest stage!

👏👏

Small matter of the WIPL Draft tomorrow… Will any English / Scottish / Irish players get picked up?
