lofted down the ground to long-off and that's the game
AUS Women vs ENG Women, 6th Match at Melbourne, Women's Tri, Feb 09 2020 - Match Result
Australia win by 16 runs and it means we'll have an Australia v India final on Wednesday. Excellent work from the home side, but a poor chase from England. They'll think they should have got there, or at least enough to make the final. Spin was tough to face throughout the match, the bowlers on both sides were very good. England didn't have anyone anchor the chase unlike Mooney's half-century for Australia. Tayla Vlaeminck's pace was also key as she removed both openers. Still some questions for Australia with the batting, but they dug deep today. That wraps things up for the group stage of this tri-series, we'll be back with coverage of the final on Wednesday. Don't forget the Bushfire Cricket Bash starts shortly and we'll have a live blog up and running. For now, from Alex and Gnasher, it's goodbye and thanks for joining us.
slog sweeps and finds the gap at deep midwicket but it won't be enough
lofted straight down the ground but can't beat long-off...just manages to make it back for the second
driven into the off side and finds cover
down the pitch, clipped firmly of the toes but it's only one to deep midwicket
tries to sweep but just gets taken on the pads
This has been an excellent defence of a small total by Australia
a yorker outside leg, another dot as it's played back to the bowler...this game is almost done
full at leg stump, can only drive to point
That could be it for England in both senses...certainly the game looks gone now
edged, taken! That zipped to Healy, terrific catch. Full at off stump, Winfield makes room outside leg, swings hard and the thick edge reaches Healy almost before she knows it
well played! A terrific scoop over short fine leg from Winfield, moved across to off stump and connected perfectly
a thick inside edge into the pad as she swings across the line
a big heave to leg and a thick inside edge runs to short fine leg
Schutt for her last over

full at off stump, reverses straight to short third man
shuffles around the crease and then sweeps backward of square
