The dynamic duo enjoyed sensational days at Indore’s Holkar Stadium on Wednesday, Gardner adding her second century of the tournament (104 not out) to her earlier two wickets, while player-of-the-match Sutherland finished 98 not out after taking three scalps. “So good to watch them. It was clinical and I feel for Bels a bit, not getting a hundred. She thoroughly deserved it.” The other star of unbeaten Australia’s fifth victory of the tournament, which puts them back atop the league table, was leg-spinner Alana King, who grabbed 1-20 off 10 immaculate overs that thoroughly strangled England mid-innings, enabling them to be held to 9-244. PLUS ......... the rugby league players are in England, plus the Ashes are coming up ........... plenty of sport to be had.
