South Africa Women v England Academy Women - England Academy Women tour of South Africa – 3rd unofficial ODI – Live Cricket Score and Update
South Africa Women 128 (28.2 ov) v England Academy Women 129/8 (33.2 ov) - England Academy Women won by 2 wickets (with 100 balls remaining)
On Tuesday, the team from England finally bounced back in the final match of the three-match series against hosts http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757 Women team, after beating the Proteas by two wickets with hundred deliveries remaining in the match played at Senwes Park, Potchefstroom.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013’s left-arm pacer, Jodie Dibble, was the obvious difference between the two sides, as she ripped apart the South African defences with some outstanding bowling.
England, after losing the first two games, needed a win to take something positive from the tournament, on the other hand the hosts would have wanted to secure a whitewash victory over the tourists, but the English were just too good for them on http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Thomas-George-Burrows-c93472his day as the South African girls just couldn’t handle the English bowling onslaught.
Choosing to bat first after winning the toss, seemed an appropriate decision, but after the 54-run opening stand from openers http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Susanna-Maria-Benade-c92039, it was downhill for the hosts as wickets kept falling at random.
The outstanding Chetty was the first to fall as she found her way back to the pavilion after belting 33 runs off 41 deliveries.
In the next over, Benade, also followed Chetty all the way back to the dressing room after scoring an innings of 13 runs off 32 deliveries.
While the remaining batswomen crumbled, skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mignon-du-Preez-c76274, steadfast and knocked an innings of 37 runs to prevent her side from falling on a tally below 100 runs.
In the end, South Africa could play only 28.2 overs before faltering after posting 128 runs.
With a meagre total to chase, England had all the luck in the world on their side, and should have chased down the total without much resistance.
Nonetheless, South Africa were not going to give up without a stiff fight, as the Zulu girls launched a daunting bowling onslaught to restrict the English from reaching the required target.
Benade and Shabnim http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ismail-c64603 made life extremely difficult for England as they shared three and two wickets a piece.
Nonetheless, this was not enough to halt the English as they reached the target in 33.2 overs for the loss of eight wickets.
From England, skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jones-c69217 were the top batswomen with knocks of 24 and 23 to their names.
