Nice set up this at Taunton, about the right size for the crowd, with lots of kids in the crowd enjoying the boundaries. Twenty20 must have been quite boon for the women's game. It's decent stuff too. Just when you think the batters are lacking a bit in power, they smash one over the top. Some good cat and mouse with fielders coming in off the boundary for the catch. In the men's game, you feel that too many miscues carry for 6.
I didn't know Sophie Devine bowled too. Bowls a really good quicker bouncer. Amelia Kerr struggled a bit gripping the wet ball, only managing to pitch 3 out of 6balls on an immaculate length, including a wrong-un.

Apparently almost all tickets gone for the Taunton double header, which is great news.

England score 160 against South Africa.
England Lions playing West Indies. Sam Hain scores 145* at faster than a run a ball. Has a List A average of 68. But must seem a bit pointless, as no realistic chance of getting into England ODI team at the moment. Perhaps he could try being Australian again.

Agar's leave of a ball that splattered middle and off reminds me of Chris Read's international career ending misjudgement. Not that the deliveries were that similar, more like the embarrassment factor of a supposedly international class batsman getting it that wrong. And also the sense that a struggling team simply cannot afford mistakes so calamitous.
