SOUTHAMPTON: England's Nat Sciver-Brunt struck a blistering century but was unable to prevent Australia from claiming a three-run victory in the second one-day international on Sunday (Jul 16), as the tourists retained the Ashes after taking an unassailable lead in the series.
England have recalled Tammy Beaumont and Lauren Filer to their one-day international (ODI) squad for the women's Ashes series against Australia, the country's cricket board (ECB) said on Monday, after the pair missed out on the three Twenty20 Internationals.
England's woman cricketer Lauren Bell extended her support to the men's side after the arguable stumping of Jonny Bairstow by Alex Carey at Lord's in the second test. The Lord's match witnessed a debatable moment in the 52nd over when Australia wicket-keeper Carey ran out England batter Bairstow with a direct throw. Bairstow batting at 10 runs was stunned by the dismissal as he was not expecting a throw from the wicket-keeper as he just walked off the crease after leaving the ball. Many cricketers criticised the dismissal and called it against the spirit of the game.
Australia took a dominant grip of the multi-format women's Ashes with a four-wicket victory in the first T20 of the series on Saturday. Beth Mooney's 61 not out steered the world T20 champions home with one ball to spare at Edgbaston chasing 154 to win. After winning the sole Test match of the series, the visitors now lead 6-0 on points with just 10 left to play for, courtesy of two points for a win in the two remaining T20 clashes and three one day internationals. Australia captain Alyssa Healy, who played despite managing two fractured fingers, won the toss and elected to field first.
NOTTINGHAM, England : Australia's Annabel Sutherland went into the record books with the highest score for a women's batter at number eight or lower with an unbeaten 137 before picking up a wicket in her first over on Friday as England trail by 255 runs in the Ashes test.
Australia's Ellyse Perry hit an eye-catching 99 before Sophie Ecclestone led England's fightback on the first day of the women's Ashes on Thursday. Perry was Australia's driving force as the tourists reached 328-7 at close of play in the lone Test of the multi-format series at Trent Bridge. In the biggest moment of a dramatic day, Perry overturned an lbw verdict off Lauren Filer's first ball at international level. Perry, who had scored only 10 at the time, went on to reach her fifth 50-plus score in 10 Tests against England.
Lauren Filer’s ability to “bang the ball in” has earned the pace bowler an unexpected place in Heather Knight’s side for Thursday’s Ashes Test. The England captain is seeking an aggressive attack that can take all Australia’s wickets to secure a first result in a women’s Test since 2015.
Fast bowler Lauren Filer will make her England debut in the one-off Ashes test against Australia at Trent Bridge, the country's cricket board (ECB) said on Wednesday.
