Womens Internationals

[TheParraboy]

Thought this deserves a thread of its own, particularly when the ladies are playing live on tv.

T20i Australia v WI
LIVE on GEM from 2.30PM today (Adelaide oval)

(Mens Aust v SA on from 7.30pm Ch9)

 

[Twizzle]

I quiet like watching these guys, we have some very talented women atm

Perry batting

 

[TheParraboy]

Southern Stars 4/160 - 20 overs

WI need 161 to win

Would say Stars win easily, but you never know, quick outfield plus the ropes are ridiculously brought in (even a lot more so than the mens game)

 

[AlwaysGreen]

20/20 cricket has been a great thing for the women's game. The run rates and fielding has improved and the lesser teams are able to bridge the gap.

I reckon the women's Windies team would give their men's side a run for their money.

 

[TheParraboy]

Southern Stars breakthrough

1/4 in the 2nd over

Gayle batting at 3 (the hair, the hair)

 

[TheParraboy]

Jonassen should replace Lyon

 

[TheParraboy]

Perry strikes with her first ball (98km/hr) of a Brett Lee run up, lol

WI 2/5

 

[TheParraboy]

leggie takes a wicket

WI 3/19

 

[TheParraboy]

WI 3/22 - 6 overs

all over red rover really

this Beams leggie is pretty good

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I think she's got the shortest run up I've ever seen.

The straight boundaries would be lucky to be 50 metres.

 

[TheParraboy]

(Christina) Aquillera batting for the WI

Nice stumping by Healy of Beams

WI 4/39 9 overs

 

[TheParraboy]

brilliant catch by Healy, straight in the mitts

WI 5/46

 

[AlwaysGreen]

5 down now. The pitch looks a cracker for the men's game.

 

[TheParraboy]

Beams carving em up

WI 6/50

 

[TheParraboy]

Beams 3/16 - 4 overs

career best figures

 

[TheParraboy]

Wi 7/57

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Perry runs up to the crease for about 30 metres, then slows down just before her delivery stride. She could probably cut her run up down by about twenty metres.

9 down.

 

[TheParraboy]

9/64

still 2.5hrs before the mens game??

They should have started the womens game at 4pm or 4.30pm, get more people in to watch them

 

[AlwaysGreen]

West Indies last pair batting for the draw here.
