Editor’s Pick(Women’s Cricket): England - Australia

India lost to South Africa. After four wins on a trot ( which I bragged about), She had her first loss in this tournament. Hope she didn’t peak too early. Time will tell. They lost by 115 runs. A very big margin. Now, I don’t use the word ‘thrash’ unless it was India that won.

India bundled out for 158. The batsmen really need to work on their performance if they intend to pick up the trophy. Yes, they still are in the run, being second on the table. But there is no reason to be lethargic about it. Come on girls !!!

Lizelle Lee Hit a 65-ball 92 runs. Apart from Dane’s 57, the other contributions are not really worth mentioning. The total of 273 was more than enough to ensure their third victory in this tournament. They are placed fourth currently, after Australia, India and New Zealand.

The next match - England - Australia. Both teams have some really good performances. The players are living up to their name and fame. Picking the fantasy lineup was honestly not that hard.

Key Players: India - England

When there is nothing left, you will play for pride. That is what India has to do tomorrow. Considering the fact that the match is taking place in Mumbai. Do it for them. Do it for us. England and Australia will meet each other at the finals on 31st March. India and England are more than likely to go in with the same playing eleven.
India Terribly low on morale, the team will now have to give it their all. They need to know that they are much better than this.

England The team has been doing really well since day one. They will now consider this as a practice match. But they will want to win and go to the finals with confidence. They were thumped by Australia earlier in what can be called as a one-sided game. They want to win this tomorrow.

Blog Time : Ashes to Ashes

If anything comes close to the eccentric hype that takes place during India-Pakistan series, it is the Ashes. That is not the only similarity. This tournament is just as personal. The phrase ‘let’s go to the mattresses’ is taken very seriously during this tournament. That is seen if you take a look at how the name came about in the very first place.

THE NAME The first match between the two teams - England and Australia - took place in Melbourne, Australia in 1877. The legend of the Ashes began in 1882, after the ninth test. Australia toured England. It was a brilliant match. A match that Australia won on the English Soil. A match they almost lost. Dead silence took over the stadium. They could not believe their team had just lost to a colony on home soil.

On 2 September a celebrated mock obituary, written by Reginald Shirley Brooks, appeared in The Sporting Times. It read: In Affectionate Remembrance of ENGLISH CRICKET, which died at the Oval on 29 August 1882, Deeply lamented by a large…

Game on...
