Australia Women v England Women - ICC Women's World Cup - 13th Match - Super Six – Live Score and Update
Australia Women 147 (44.4 ov) v England Women 145 (47.3 ov) - Australia Women won by 2 runs
On Friday, Australia Women grabbed a sensation two-run win in their http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mumbai-c820 (neutral venue).
England Women, who chose to field after winning the toss, startled the Aussies by grabbing three wickets with only 15 runs on the board. This was a disastrous start for the tournament favourites, as it put them on the back foot right from the start.
With RL Haynes (2), JE Cameron (0) and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andrew-Charles-Lennox-James-c44309 Blackwell (4) back in the pavilion without contributing much, it was imperative for the remaining batswomen to steer their side out of this difficult position.
However, with no end to their miseries, the Australians suffered the demise of their fourth wicket on the departure of opener MM Lanning, who was dismissed by Shrubsole after scoring only 17 runs. At the time of this wicket, the girls in gold were sitting
on 27 runs.
Then with 32 on the scoreboard, JM Fields found her way back to the pavilion with only three runs to her name.
The way things were going, Australia were not going to reach 100 runs, however, this predicament was prevented by LC Sthalekar and SJ Coyte, who forged a resilient partnership, brining their team back in the game.
Finally, after taking the score to 114, this partnership met its end on the wicket of Sthalekar, who was clean-bowled by Brindle after smashing a 41-run knock.
EA Osborne was disappointing as she failed to score a run before losing her wicket to Colvin.
Later, SJ Coyte was the next batswoman to find her way off the field after she was dismissed by Colvin with 44 runs to her name.
Nonetheless, her innings had allowed http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 to post a nifty score of 147 runs on the board in 44.4 overs.
While England’s middle-order was not in its best form, LS Greenway’s brilliant knock of 49 runs brought her team so close to victory that a loss from there was nearly impossible. However, Osborne’s majestic delivery which had Colvin caught behind with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013
just two runs away earned the Aussies a narrow win.
