England v New Zealand washed out.

Another game abandoned due to the weather. Is it just me, or are more games succumbing to rain recently. A lot of games in Ladies World Cup have also been abandoned.
Climate change is certainly with us.

Climate change is certainly part of the reason but as they have so many tournaments nowadays some have to be planned for 'rainy seasons'
 
Some figures (was going to say stats, but that word is used so erroneously these days) to ponder. The highest score ever at this ground for a T 20I. Rashid has now taken a wicket in his last 21 t 20 games. A Nepalese bowler is on 26 games (?) And a Sri Lankan on 23. The last four batsmen who got to the middle scored at a strike rate of at least 200.
 
England v Aussie.
England post 244 off 50 overs.
Aussie 46 - 3 off 10 overs.

Good start by England
 
  • First ODI, Mount Maunganui

  • New Zealand chase 224 to win by four wickets with 13.2 overs remaining

  • NZ 224-6 (36.4 overs): Mitchell 78* (91), Bracewell 51 (51); Carse 3-45

  • England captain Brook hits astonishing century to salvage his side's innings from 33-5

  • England 223 (35.2 overs): Brook 135 (101), Overton 46 (54); Foulkes 4-41
England well beaten today
 
Ladies semi final v South Africa tomorrow.
Start at 9.30am,
We thrashed them in the group stage, but not an easy game.
 
Ladies under the cosh at the moment.
South Africa 103 - 0 off 20 overs.

Not looking good at the moment.
 
Disaster, England 1-3,in 2nd over chasing 320.
All over me thinks

144 - 7,a disastrous day for England
