    Another Australia victory. They have our number in the female game as much as in the men's.

    We’ve now lost 3 out of 3 with 4 left in group.
    All games were close but it’s not looking good for qualification.

    It may be me, but it seems to be very low key especially as we’re current holders

    Serves them right. Couldn't win a game in the Ashes but then play pretty much the same 11 in the World Cup. They have the likes of Mady Villiers there in charge of drinks when she won the Hundred last summer. Too many have played for too long. They need to give new people a chance.

    After a close win against SA, we have 2 group games left and they are against the bottom two teams.
    Two wins won’t guarantee qualification but it’s likely.

    Because of the two opponents to come the NRR should be good enough. Today was far closer than it should have been after that collapse.

    Only a few hours before we play SA in the last semi and we are marginal favourites, but the mighty Australia await in the final

    Australia women cricketers are arguably the best sport side in the world right now in any gender. They are unstoppable.

    I hope your clutching is better than South Africa's.

    This has aged well :)

    Great performance today to reach the final though whoever buttered the South African hands before the start also deserves a pat on the back

    They won't win it. Australia for me are the best team in Sport in any gender with how dominant they are. Happy to be proven wrong but if they bat first I suspect they will lose by 5 wickets and if they bat second lose by 50-100 runs. Don't expect a close one.

    You are probably right but with Cricket (and most other sports to be fair) its not always that simple. We definitely have a chance in a one off final though the Aussies are clearly the favourites

    Only if there's some butter left for the Aussie changing room door handle.
