Meg Lanning Retires from International Cricket, Leaves Behind a Legacy of Dominance

Meg Lanning, one of the greatest female cricketers of all time, has announced her retirement from international cricket at the age of 31. Lanning led Australia to unprecedented success during her 13-year career, captaining the team to four T20 World Cup titles, an ODI World Cup title, and a Commonwealth Games gold medal.

Lanning was also a prolific batter, scoring 17 international centuries and amassing over 8,000 runs across all formats. She is the all-time leading run-scorer for Australia in both ODIs and T20Is.

In a statement, Lanning said that the decision to retire was a difficult one, but that she felt it was the right time to move on to the next chapter of her life.

"I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunities I've had during my international career," Lanning said. "I've been fortunate enough to play with some of the best players in the world, and to be part of some incredibly successful teams.

"I'm proud of what we've achieved together, and I'll cherish the memories we've made. I'm also excited to see what the future holds for me, and I'm looking forward to the next challenge."

Lanning's retirement is a major loss for Australian cricket, but she leaves behind a legacy of dominance that will be difficult to match. She is one of the most successful captains in the history of the sport, and her impact on the game will be felt for years to come.

India Women vs Australia Women, 3rd ODI: Wanted to stand up as a senior, says Jhulan Goswami | Cricket News

MACKAY: Veteran Indian women's team pacer Jhulan Goswami on Sunday said she was glad to have stood up for the side after the narrow loss in the second ODI against Australia by being a major contributor to the consolation win in the final match here. Goswami returned with figures of 3/37 from her 10 overs to play a big role in India's win in the third and final ODI. She was adjudged 'Player of the Match' for her performance. The 38-year-old also hit the winning four that ended Australia's 26-match unbeaten streak. "We were just trying to stay there and finish the game. On Friday, it was difficult for bowlers and today as the senior bowler, I wanted to stand up and use the new ball well," Goswami said after the match in which India chased down a highest ever 265 for the win. The winning moment when @JhulanG10 hit straight down to the ground to trigger wild celebrations! #TeamIndia… https://t.co/TJL7gKo3HI — BCCI Women (@BCCIWomen) 1632645405000 "I knew I could get breakthroughs. That was what I did. It's important to give your best in the field, take positives and that's what I want to do as a senior. "Lots of soreness in my body having played back-to-back games, need time to recover, but we're looking forward to be a part of the first-ever pink-ball Test," she added. India lost the three-match series 1-2. Two no-balls by Goswami became a prime reason for India's loss in the second ODI On Friday. Her second no-ball was to be the final delivery of the match with Australia in need of three runs. That illegitimate delivery put paid to India's chances as the eventual last ball was sent towards wide long-on for two runs by the Australians to seal the series. India captain Mithali Raj expressed happiness that Australia's 26-match winning streak was ended by her side. "We are very happy. I was just telling the girls (that) Australia's winning streak started against India in India in 2018, so now we are the ones who broke that streak," she said. "It's good to have some depth in the batting order. Deepti scoring runs and, of course, Yastika's partnership with Shafali was very important. And Sneh Rana's cameo was very important for the team. "I think the last game gave us confidence going into today's encounter (in terms of putting a score on the board)," she added. Australia captain Meg Lanning said her side had chances to win the match but could not take them at important moments. "Credit to India. I thought they came out really well with the ball and kept fighting with the bat so they deserved to win," she said. Source link Read the full article

ICC Women’s T20 World Cup | Australia outclass India by 85 runs in final

New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/icc-womens-t20-world-cup-australia-outclass-india-by-85-runs-in-final/

ICC Women’s T20 World Cup | Australia outclass India by 85 runs in final

India saved their worst for the last as a brutal Australian side outclassed them by 85 runs for an unprecedented fifth T20 World Cup triumph in a final that promised much but delivered very little here Sunday.

Batting first after the coin landed in Meg Lanning’s favour, Australia came out in scintillating fashion with their openers Alyssa Healy (75 off 39 balls) and Beth Mooney (78 off 54 balls) laying the foundation with a 115-run partnership in double quick time.

Stirred up by the grand occasion, their onslaught fired Australia to a formidable 184 for four in the stipulated 20 overs.

Overwhelmed by the occasion, India crumbled to 99 all out in front of a big crowd at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground.

What worked in the home team’s favour was that their openers easily neutralised the threat posed by the in-form spinner Poonam Yadav (1/30 in 4 overs) with percentage game while taking the likes of medium-pacer Shikha Pandey and Deepti Sharma to the cleaners.

On the day, Pandey was smashed for 52 runs in her four overs.

  Half the battle was won there for the formidable Australians, who, in stark contrast to the India, saved their best for the last.

The manner and magnitude of the defeat, including a few sub plots, were reminiscent of the 2003 men’s World Cup final when Ricky Ponting’s Australia thrashed Sourav Ganguly’s India in an anti-climactic title clash.

Like Zaheer Khan in his opening over at the Wanderers against Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden, Deepti Sharma was all nerves when up against Mooney and Healy, who blasted massive sixes as the beaming husband Mitchell Starc watched from the stands.

The match was as good as over when India were 18/3 in the fourth over, which became four for 4/30 when skipper Harmanpreet Kaur departed and 58/5 when Veda Krishnamurthy was taking the long walk back.

Earlier, Mooney and Healy rode on dropped chances to smash blistering fifties and power Australia to a challenging 184 for four.

Mooney top-scored for Australia but it was Healy, who took to the attack after being dropped in the fifth ball of the innings by Shafali Verma off Deepti Sharma.

Healy’s 39-balls innings was laced with seven fours and five hits over the fence.

Healy and Mooney shared 115 runs in 11.5 overs for the opening wicket to give Australia a flying start after opting to bat first.

Just like Healy, Mooney too cashed in on a dropped chance — caught and bowled opportunity by Rajeshwari Gayakwad in the fourth over — to punish India by reaching her fifty in 41 balls.

Mooney struck 10 boundaries in her 54-ball unconquered knock.

Despite losing to India in the tournament opener, defending champions and four-time winners, Australia entered the final as favourites because of their big match temperament and experience.

And the Meg Lanning-led side proved their billing as Healy tore apart the hapless Indian attack with her power-hitting from ball one.

Healy’s entertaining knock finally came to an end in 12th over when she was holed out at the long-on boundary by Veda Krishnamurthy off left-arm spinner Radha Yadav.

After Healy’s dismissal, Mooney took charge and added 39 runs with skipper Lanning before Deepti’s double strike in the 17th over pulled things back for India to some extent.

While Lanning (6) was caught by Shikha Pandey in the second ball, Ashleigh Gardner was stumped by Taniya Bhatia three balls later.

Rachael Haynes (4) too failed to deliver as she played on a Poonam Yadav delivery in the 19th over.

But Mooney took up the responsibility and remained unbeaten in the company of Nicola Carey (5 not out) to take Australia close to the 190-run mark.

The Indian slow bowlers — Deepti (2/38), Radha Yadav (1/34) and Poonam Yadav (1/30) did well to restrict Australia under 200, which looked easily achievable when Mooney and Healy were going great guns

Brief Scores:

Australia: 184 for 4 in 20 overs (Beth Mooney 78 not out, Alyssa Healy 75; Deepti Sharma 2/38)

India: 99 all out in 19.1 overs (Deepti Sharma 33, Veda Krishnamurthy 19; Megan Schutt 3/18.)

Teams:

India Women: Harmanpreet Kaur(captain), Shafali Verma, Smriti Mandhana, Taniya Bhatia(wk), Jemimah Rodrigues, Veda Krishnamurthy, Deepti Sharma, Shikha Pandey, Radha Yadav, Poonam Yadav, Rajeshwari Gayakwad.

Australia Women: Meg Lanning(captain), Alyssa Healy(wk), Beth Mooney, Jess Jonassen, Ashleigh Gardner, Rachael Haynes, Nicola Carey, Sophie Molineux, Georgia Wareham, Delissa Kimmince, Megan Schutt.

The Chase Files Daily Newscap 9/16/2019

Good Morning #realdreamchasers. Here is your daily news cap for Monday, September 16th, 2019. There is a lot to read and digest so take your time. Remember you can read full articles via Barbados Government Information Service (BGIS), Barbados Today (BT), or by purchasing a Daily Nation Newspaper (DN).

NOT BUDGING – Teachers are not backing down in their fight to be paid separately for correcting School-Based Assessments (SBAs). That was the emphatic word from Barbados Union of Teachers (BUT) president Sean Spencer yesterday, as his group and the Barbados Secondary Teachers’ Union (BSTU) prepare to hold separate talks with their members tomorrow to thrash out a number of burning issues, including a teachers’ dress code.It means that all public schools will be closing at noon tomorrow, just over a week into the new school term, and a day after four senior schools – Alexandra School, Frederick Smith Secondary School, Grantley Adams Memorial School and Princess Margaret Secondary School – would reopen for the first time.The BUT meeting is set for 1 p.m. at Solidarity House, Harmony Hall, St Michael, while the BSTU’s is scheduled for the National Union of Public Workers’ headquarters, Dalkeith, St Michael, at 12:45 p.m.On the SBAs, Spencer was reacting to a ruling from the Trinidad and Tobago High Court last Thursday, which threw out a motion by the Trinidad and Tobago Unified Teachers Association (TTUTA) which sought to prevent teachers from marking SBAs set by the Caribbean Examination Council. (DN)

OPENING OF TWO SCHOOLS FURTHER DELAYED –The Ministry of Education, Technological and Vocational Training informs all parents and guardians that  all schools that had a delayed opening will start tomorrow except two schools. St John Primary – only Class 4 Students will return to school tomorrow.  All other classes are to report to school on Wednesday,   September 18. Eagle Hall Primary –  only Class 4 students will report to school tomorrow.  All other classes will start next week Monday,  September 23. The Ministry of Education regrets the inconvenience this further delay will cause to parents and guardians of these two schools.(BGIS)

HEAT PUTTING ANIMALS AT RISK – People are not the only ones being affected by the heatwave. Chief executive officer of the Barbados Agricultural Society (BAS), James Paul, is reporting an increase in the mortality rate among chickens, though he said it had not yet reached alarming proportions. He said yesterday the high temperatures could affect the animals’ “reproductive abilities” and “disrupt the breeding cycle of some animals, especially dairy cows”, affecting next year’s milk supplies. “We are seeing increased mortality, but it is not something we want to shout about right now. There is increased mortality of chickens, the broilers and layers, especially layers. And where a farmer would have invested in layers for six months into getting them up to where they should be, he doesn’t want to lose that because that’s his production. Farmers, I think, would have done their due diligence to ensure that the birds are adequately watered,” he said.Paul urged poultry farmers to ensure they kept pens ventilated so there was no build-up of hot air in them.Some farmers canvassed by the NATION said they had lost chickens but not in large numbers. One or two said they provided iced or cool water for their chicks.(DN)

FOGGING SCHEDULE FOR SEPTEMBER 16 TO 20 – The Vector Control Unit of the Ministry of Health and Wellness continues its weekly fogging programme on Monday, September 16, and Tuesday, September 17, in St George. Areas scheduled to be treated on Monday are Charles Rowe Bridge, Lower Estate, Lower Estate Tenantry, Price Road, Parish Land, Airy Hill with Avenues, Flat Rock Development and environs.On Tuesday, the team will fog Flat Rock Tenantry, Mayfield Road, Rowans Park North with Avenues, Rowans Park East with Avenues, Rowans Park South with Avenues, Exchange, Glebe, Valley Land, Glebe Land and neighbouring districts. The unit will be in St Peter on Wednesday, September 18, treating the Speightstown Bypass, Queen Street, Bovell Road, Mango Lane, Chapel Street, Gooding Alley, Major Walk, Sand Street, Church Street, Golden Mile with Avenues and surrounding areas. On Thursday, September 19, the team will be in St Peter and St James fogging Gills Road, Around the Town, Farm Road, Niles Road, Farm Tenantry Road, Burma Road, Battaleys, 1st and 2nd Street Holetown, Trents, Trents Tenantry, Jamestown Park and environs.

Householders are reminded to open their windows and doors to allow the spray to enter. (BGIS)

BERMUDA ON ALERT AS TROPICAL STORM HUMBERTO SETS STRENGTHEN –Forecasters have warned Bermuda that strengthening Tropical Storm Humberto is a potential threat to the island after it moved to the north of the Bahamas. As of 12PM Sunday, the storm, which is due to reach hurricane strength later in the day,  is expected to be around 230 miles west of Bermuda by midday on Wednesday as a Category 2 Hurricane. The Miami-based National Hurricane Centre (NHC) said the storm, packing 65 mph winds with higher gusts, was moving north at seven miles per hour, but is expected to make a sharp turn to the northeast on Monday. On Sunday afternoon, Humberto was located 180 miles north-northwest of Abaco, which suffered loss of life and massive damage earlier in the month from Hurricane Dorian. “Additional strengthening is forecast through Wednesday, and Humberto is expected to become a hurricane by tonight,” the NHC said in its latest advisory on Sunday. Bermuda’s Emergency Measures Organisation (EMO) has said it has begun to monitor the track of  Humberto. Minister of National Security Wayne Caines said: “The EMO is prepared and stands ready to convene should the weather system’s forecasted track pose a threat to Bermuda. “I take this opportunity to remind the public that Bermuda is in the midst of hurricane season. I strongly encourage the public to revisit your business, household and family preparedness plans.” The Bermuda Weather Service said Humberto would bring dangerous sea conditions to the island ahead of it. Humberto lashed already devastated parts of the Bahamas with heavy rain and strong winds which hampered recovery efforts after Dorian, a Category 5 hurricane, tore into the island chain’s northwestern islands with 185 mph winds, killing at least 50 people and leaving thousands homeless.(DN)

THROWN FOR A LOOP –BARBADOS TRIDENTS were put in a spin yesterday.Playing on the ground that produced the highest T20 franchise score two days earlier, the Tridents encountered a pitch that changed character and slumped to their second defeat of the 2019 Hero Caribbean Premier League.The surface at Sabina Park in Jamaica was slow, offered turn and bounce and the Tridents, batting first after they were sent in for the midday start, were undone by a quartet of spinners that helped Jamaica Tallawahs end a four-match losing streak.Tridents made a fight of it in trying to defend their modest total of 140 for nine and it took the Tallawahs 18.3 overs while losing six wickets to complete their four-wicket win that gave them their first points of the tournament.Tridents captain Jason Holder admitted that he didn’t expect to see the opponents turn to spin first up, but made no excuses for his team’s batting display in which some players gifted their hands and others were outfoxed.“It [spinners using the new ball] took us by surprise, but I still felt the wicket was good enough that we could have done a little better,” the skipper said.(DN)

WI WOMEN LOSE T20 OPENER – FRESH FROM a clean sweep of the preceding One-Day International Series in Antigua, Australia women drew first blood when the three-match T20I series against West Indies commenced at Kensington Oval on Saturday night. The Australians, who are the No. 1-ranked team in both ODI and T20 formats, held the Windies – who won the toss – to a modest 106 for eight before wiping off the target for the loss of four wickets with seven balls to spare.The visitors centred their match-winning chase around an authoritative 54 not out by captain Meg Lanning who came to the crease in the second over and remained until the victory was achieved. West Indies skipper Stafanie Taylor was also her side’s leading batsman, but was forced to temper her approach as wickets tumbled around her at regular intervals after she, like Lanning, came at the fall of the first wicket. She did manage to open her shoulders on a few occasions to strike three fours and two sixes in a knock that spanned 55 balls. The home team got off to a disastrous start, losing both openers in the first over of the match – Britney Cooper comprehensively beaten and bowled by pacer Megan Schutt, and Kyshona Knight run out at the striker’s end, responding late to a call for sharp single from Taylor.(DN)

KING: ONE SONG STAYS – THE ONE-SONG Pic-O-De-Crop final, which was introduced this year, will be staying.There are no buts, ifs or maybes in Minister of Culture John King’s mind about that. And he wants the calypsonians to enter and “bring everything”.“It will stay because it is important that we build back the crowds that we used to get in the 1980s. And you can’t effect change by doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. That, as everyone knows, is a prognosis for madness,” he said, reinforcing what the chief executive officer of the National Cultural Foundation Carol Roberts-Reifer said recently.King told the NATION in an interview that this year, more people attended the finals at Kensington Oval after declining numbers in recent years.“This year they’ve had the biggest increase in audience attendance for the finals in a number of years. We have the statistics, and even just being there and looking at it, anyone could see. I’ve been saying this for many years. The only singing competition in the world I’ve heard of where the competitor has two appearances is a calypso contest. And I asked the question even when I was in it, why?(DN)

Always going to play more aggressively than others - Healy

Always going to play more aggressively than others - Healy

The past three months have brought two firsts for Alyssa Healy, each of which have had an air of deferred inevitability about them: a maiden Women’s Big Bash League ton in January, followed by her first international century. If the WBBL ton – a 66-ball 106 against the Adelaide Strikers – in her 41st appearance in the league was a statement of intent, her 115-ball 133 against India in the third ODI took shape of a roller-coaster ride and ended up imparting a long-awaited degree of validation to her 136-match international career.

“Yeah, it was a big feeling of relief, I guess,” Healy said after Austalia’s win on Sunday. “Played a lot of cricket to not have one (century). Pretty excited to sit here with finally a hundred under my belt. And hopefully get a couple more before I pull up stumps. It’s obviously been a long six months for us. I feel lucky I have been hitting the ball well.

“It was probably just about adjusting to the conditions a little bit better and the spinners. So, yeah, obviously got off to the flier in the first game and got myself out. [I] did a lot of work to spin in the last few days. To come out today, and play positively was something I’m pretty proud of and hopefully I can take that into the tri-series.”

Even though she started off in a scratchy manner, scoring only 13 off her first 22 deliveries, Healy got her eye in and shot her strike rate over 100 by smashing 14 runs off frontline quick Shikha Pandey in the eighth over and went on to score 43 off 34 against her overall, evading two dropped catches on 23 and 125.

“I guess the pace was comfortable to me,” Healy said about the fluency she found against Pandey. “I enjoy facing spin, but with pace coming on, I feel quite comfortable with that. It was about attacking that end. I got some balls that I thought I’d like to hit and gave it a good whack. So obviously that pace change-up got us going.”

After clobbering two fours and a six in Pandey’s fourth over, Healy left the medium-pacer’s line and India captain Mithali Raj’s field placements in disarray as she cracked four fours off five deliveries off Pandey’s eighth over. First up, she backed away and slashed at a wide one that flew over Harmanpreet at mid-off. With five fielders patrolling the off-side inner ring, Healy then followed it up with a square drive off an offcutter, and slapped the next one through the cover-point region.

One ball later, Raj would push the cover fielder back, only to invite Healy to loft over mid-off again for a fourth four. The sixth delivery, a back-of-a-length offcutter, had Deepti Sharma back pedal from extra cover to chase a skier, but gave Healy her third life of the innings and another two runs to her tally.

“You need a bit of luck to make runs in cricket,” Healy said of her three chances, including a drop by Mona Meshram at deep square leg in the 20th over. “You can’t go through your career, hitting the ball along the ground and being safe.

“For me, it was probably just the luck I needed. I’ve been hitting the ball all summer, so yeah, to come out here and get a bit of luck in this series is really handy. Obviously, it helped me get there today, but unfortunately, Mona Meshram didn’t have such a great game, but I’m sure she’ll bounce back no doubt. She fielded really well, the ground fielding. So hopefully she comes back out in the T20Is”.

Alyssa Healy winds up for a big hit Getty Images

Despite losing opening partner Nicole Bolton in the sixth over and Meg Lanning in the 11th, Healy sustained herself for 40.2 overs without tweaking much of her approach. It is a method, she said, that is rooted in her role, which “isn’t too different” from what her game is best suited to.

“Naturally, I will take the game on. For me, it’s about choosing the right time to do that and obviously we lost the couple of wickets early but we’ve got such a great batting line-up that we know we don’t want to take a backward step when that happens. So it’s important that we keep going and keep pushing and keep manipulating the field movement. Yeah, fortunately it came off today. You build big totals by continuing with that momentum and I think we did that well today.”

Dwelling upon Australia’s much-vocal intent of posting totals in excess of 300, Healy said it was an aspect much of their pre-tour discussions had been centred on.

“It’s a goal for us to consistently hit that mark,” she said. “We did that quite comfortably in the end today. We have got so much power right down our batting order, which is really exciting. For us at the top order, it’s just about setting up the game and then let them do their thing at the bottom. The 3-0 result is something we have spoken about a lot, so yeah, really pleased.”

While stating that a deep batting order helped her stay true to her attacking approach, she also said it aided her in turning things around after a vapid performance, as was witnessed in her 37-ball 19 in the second ODI.

“Naturally, I’m a fairly aggressive cricketer. For me it’s about playing that way, having that intent all the time. When I dig myself into a hole like I did in the last game, it’s about getting out of that smartly. I’m always probably going to play more aggressively than others but yeah you’re right in saying that we’ve got such a powerful line-up that I could push a bit at the top.”

Looking back on the 3-0 scoreline, Healy, with her trademark candour, acknowledged that exacting “revenge” for the knockout defeat in the World Cup semi-final was on top of the visitors’ agenda coming into the series.

“Yeah, look, there’s a little bit of revenge there,” she said, “I won’t lie. To come out and beat them 3-0 is really special. They’ve got a really exciting, talented group of players and they showed that at the World Cup. Unfortunately, they couldn’t get over the line in the end, but they pulled our pants down in the semi-final. So for us to come out and play the way we did, play aggressively, put it back on them, I think the group is proud of that.”

Australia wary of India heading into Women's Cricket World Cup semi | Women S Cricket World Cup

Harmanpreet Kaur's undefeated 171 provided India the platform for victory. "I wanted to utilise this opportunity. Meg Lanning had fielders in her strong zones: deep mid-wicket, long on, and deep. In the 40th over of the innings, a badly-cramping Kaur passed 150, becoming only the 15th player in women's cricket history, and second Indian, to do so, as she fired her team up to an imposing score. Smriti scored a century in the early stages, Poonam got one after that and Harman today," she said.

Collectively they help paint a picture of an England women's side that is less of a cricket team and more a group of friends that just happen to be playing in a World Cup final on Sunday. A stunning unbeaten 171 from Harmanpreet Kaur has lifted India to the women's Cricket World Cup final, knocking out defending champions Australia. Australia player Ellyse Perry reacts after the ICC Women's World Cup 2017 semi-final. "That's two we've had in this competition we haven't reacted well to so, very disappointing.We have a new Woman of the Match in every game which is wonderful.

ICC Women's World Cup: India suffer 8-wicket loss to Australia

India's semifinal prospects suffered a massive setback after Australia cantered to a convincing eight-wicket win, riding on a superb batting show by their top-order in the ICC Women's World Cup here today.

Put into bat, opener Punam Raut's fighting century and a 69 from record-breaking skipper Mithali Raj enabled India to post a decent 226 for seven in their sixth group league encounter.

Australia overhauled the target with 29 balls to spare, scoring 227 for two, courtesy some fine batting by skipper Meg Lanning (76 not out) and Ellyse Perry (60 not out).

Beth Mooney (45) and Nicole Bolton (36) laid the foundation with a 62-run opening partnership in 15.4 overs.

Mithali said at the post-match presentation ceremony, "It was a decent total after losing our first wicket in the first couple of overs. We should have got more runs in the middle overs, but it was still a competitive total. But the bowlers didn't look penetrative, it was a slow wicket."

After this loss, India are now placed at the fourth spot with eight points. They will have to win its next and final league match against New Zealand to make the knockout stage.

"Even for New Zealand, probably, it will be a do-or-die match. If we look forward to qualifying, we really need to upgrade our quality of cricket."

Mooney and Bolton made a watchful start to their innings as Indian pacers Jhulan Goswami and Deepti Sharma bowled maiden overs first up.

Left-arm spinner Ekta Bisht was introduced into the attack and Bolton exploded with three back-to-back fours.

Mooney and Bolton helped Australia score 57 in the first 15 overs before the latter was sent packing by Poonam Yadav in the next over.

Mooney then blasted a couple of fours off Sharma in the next over, while new batswoman Lanning too joined the party with a clean strike over Yadav's head and then hitting one over mid-off as Australia reached 82 for one.

The duo brought up the hundred in the 23rd over, but Mooney was run-out with Deepti producing a brilliant fielding at short extra-cover.

Perry then joined Lanning and the took the ones and twos and occasional boundaries to keep the scoreboard ticking. They brought up the 150 when Perry bisected the deep mid-wicket and long-on with a boundary in the 32nd over.

In the first ball of the 35th over, Lanning picked up a single off Goswami to complete her fifty. The duo continued to rotate the strike and crossed the 200-mark in the 41st over.

Perry, who completed her 22nd ODI fifty, cracked a straight drive off Goswami to bring up the winning runs.

"We've come into this World Cup looking to win it, just like every other team. There's been some very good cricket played, and every game from here on is going to be high- quality," Lanning said.

Earlier, Raut (106, 136 balls) and Mithali (69, 114 balls) added 157 runs for the second wicket but they consumed more than 37 overs in the process.

The highlight of India innings was Mithali surpassing former England captain Charlotte Edwards' aggregate of 5992 runs to become the highest run-getter in the history of women's ODI.

En route her 49th ODI half-century, she also became the first batswoman to reach the individual milestone of 6000 runs.

Talking about the milestone, Mithali said: "I think that since I've had a long career, (the milestone) is part of it.

It's very important for me to get runs for my country from my bat. I can say I'm happy even though I'm not happy in terms of the result or the way I scored them today."

Punam, who hit 11 fours, played confidently against the spinners. Mithali, however, was very slow off the blocks even though her innings had four boundaries and a six.

She simply couldn't find the gaps as the dot balls kept on piling. The only time she tried chancing her arms was when she lofted Beans for a six to complete 6000 runs.

Once Mithali was out, Harmanpreet Kaur (23, 22 balls) tried to get to move on but after she was dismissed, the Indians couldn't accelerate in the final overs.

ENGLAND BEATS AUSTRALIA TO MOVE TOP OF THE TABLE AS WEST INDIES RECORDS FIRST WIN

England records its fourth consecutive win in the competition by beating Australia by three runs in Bristol

The host is now top of the standings, with Australia second in the race for the knockout stages, but the top five teams are within one point of each other

West Indies beats Sri Lanka in Derby for its first win of this year’s ICC Women’s World Cup but neither team can qualify for the semi-finals

Jenny Gunn held her nerve as England inflicted Australia’s first defeat of the ICC Women’s World Cup, while also replacing its opposition at the top of the points table, with a thrilling three-run win at Bristol.

Defending 16 from the last over, Gunn did just enough to secure the victory – despite Ellyse Perry’s 70 from 86 balls as the Southern Stars narrowly failed to chase down the target of 259 for eight.

No Australian batter other than Perry was able to cash in on their starts as it ended on 256 for eight, with England registering its fourth successive victory as qualification for the semi-finals was blown wide open.

In the day’s other game at Derby, the West Indies recorded its first victory of the competition after beating Sri Lanka by 47 runs, although both teams are out of contention for the knockout stages.

West Indies put on 229 for nine at The County Ground, with Merissa Aguilleira’s patient unbeaten 46 leading the way, before Sri Lanka was skittled for 182 from 48 overs.

Anisa Mohammed was named player of the match after taking three for 39 with the ball, as Sri Lanka remains winless in the tournament.

 England v Australia

Katherine Brunt’s quick-fire unbeaten 45 and a dogged two for 42 with the ball led the way for England to record a first ICC WWC win over Australia since 1993, a narrow three-run triumph in Bristol.

The host country now looks well-placed to reach the semi-finals as it tops the table with just two games remaining, but only one point separates the top five as a mouth-watering conclusion to the group stage beckons.

Chasing 260 to win, Australia had put on 56 for the opening wicket at The County Ground, but when Beth Mooney and Nicole Bolton fell in the space of three overs, it was precariously placed.

Ellyse Perry battled on for Australia with a half-century.

Meg Lanning and Perry put on 57 together though the run-rate kept increasing, as Alex Hartley’s brilliant spell of two for 31 resulted in her bowling the captain.

Natalie Sciver then caught Perry just a few moments after a vital drop, and with too many runs needed, Alyssa Healy and Ashleigh Gardner couldn’t do enough as England ran out narrow winners thanks to Gunn’s nerves of steel.

Tamsin Beaumont had led England’s batting effort with 49, as she and Sarah Taylor motored along after Lauren Winfield’s early dismissal.

At 174 for six, England was in danger of not fulfilling its overs when 13 still remained, but Gunn and Brunt, who made a career-best 45 not out, gave them something to defend and Brunt was delighted to come up trumps in front of a packed crowd in Bristol.

“It’s always a show with England v Australia and I am happy I performed well,” said player-of-the-match Brunt.

“I think 200-220 was good, so to finish with 259 gave us a lot of confidence. As a bowler, I don’t really like bowling on these flat pitches but both sides varied their pace really well and it’s just a case of executing your skills.

“It’s always nice to get one up on the Aussies but this is just one game – there’s a fair few more to come. That’s the first one they’ve lost and you can never count them out.”

 Sri Lanka v West Indies

Meanwhile, three wickets in nine balls from Anisa Mohammed steered West Indies to its maiden victory at the ICC Women’s World Cup with a 47-run triumph over Sri Lanka.

Posting its highest total of the tournament so far, West Indies saw the majority of its runs come in the middle order, Aguilleira’s 46 not out the highlight of the innings.

But a masterclass with the ball from Anisa Mohammed heavily contributed to Sri Lanka’s fifth consecutive defeat as both teams are now unable to reach the semi-finals.

“I said to the girls before that I was going to get three wickets today,” said Mohammed.

“It’s good to see the spinners coming to the party. We have a lot in our team and they really stepped up today.”

Despite a strong start with 12 runs in the opening over, Hayley Matthews was the first West Indies casualty at the crease, before her captain followed after being caught behind.

Kycia Knight and Deandra Dottin were both trapped leg-before wicket, the latter having made an explosive 38 from 25 balls.

The West Indies looked to be rebuilding with Aguilleira and Kyshona Knight in the middle, before the latter was dispatched to start a lower-order collapse.

Just two balls after hitting her 1,000th ODI run, Shanel Daley was the first of three quick-fire wickets as Sri Lanka increased the pressure on its opponents at the end of the innings.

A slow start in response saw Sri Lanka lose its openers within the first six overs, and after a lengthy lull in play, Mohammed sparked life into the match with two wickets in two balls.

Her third came shortly after, clean bowling Shashikala Siriwardena, as West Indies took control before she also ran out Prasadani Weerakkodi.

Australia take lead in the Women’s Ashes with victory in first ODI

Australia took a 2-0 lead in the multi-format Women’s Ashes with a nervy two-wicket victory in the first one-day international against England.

Having been put in to bat, England slipped to 19-4 but Nat Sciver’s 64 helped get them to 177 with Ellyse Perry taking 3-43 at Leicester.

Alyssa Healy then top-scored with 66 as Australia, who had been 105-5, chased the target with two wickets to spare.

England’s top order fails

Jones falls to Perry in the second over of the match

After Tammy Beaumont hit the first ball of the match to the boundary, England’s top order capitulated.

Amy Jones, who had scored five half-centuries in her previous six ODIs, was cramped for room by the impressive Perry and got a top edge to be dismissed without scoring.

The hosts then lost three wickets with the score on 19. Beaumont dragged on, Sarah Taylor was bowled through the gate and captain Heather Knight was trapped lbw as they endured a nightmare start on a good batting pitch.

The middle order responded well with Sciver playing some glorious cover drives in a well-constructed innings, while Fran Wilson made a useful 15 before being wrongly given out lbw to a ball which hit her glove, sparking a debate about the lack of the Decision Review System (DRS) – which is not being used in the series.

Katherine Brunt (20), Laura Marsh (24 not out) and Sophie Ecclestone (an ODI-best 27) ensured England’s tail wagged.

With the ball, England were much more impressive. Brunt dismissed Australia captain Meg Lanning and had Healy dropped. The all-rounder now has the most Women’s Ashes wickets in all formats for England (52), overtaking Myrtle Maclagan.

The spin duo of Ecclestone and Marsh took a combined 5-65 to ensure a tight finish but ultimately England did not have enough runs on the board, finding the balance of attacking to take wickets, while restricting scoring, too difficult.

Australia impress with the ball

‘The greatest catch I have ever seen’ – Haynes takes a stunning catch to dismiss Shrubsole

In their first official international in four months, Australia were very impressive with the ball and in the field.

Their decision to bowl first was queried by former England internationals Charlotte Edwards and Lydia Greenway on Test Match Special but it was fully vindicated.

Their line and length to the England top order was impeccable and their fielding was near faultless, with a stunning one-handed catch by Rachael Haynes dismissing Anya Shrubsole.

With the bat, Healy was her usual imperious self at the top of Australia’s chase. The right-hander demonstrated brute strength – she cleared the ropes twice – that left ex-England batter Ebony Rainford-Brent “worried for the rest of the series”.

Their chase was halted by regular wickets; the highest partnership was 29 and numerous players fell to very soft dismissals having got a start.

In the end they creeped over the line – in bizarre fashion as Brunt bowled a ball which went for five wides – and landed the first blow.

Spinner Sophie Ecclestone took 3-34 in her first home Ashes match

‘It was soft dismissals today’ – what they said

England captain Heather Knight:“We fought hard, I’m disappointed with the way we batted, we lost too many early wickets.

“We want to be positive. It wasn’t aggressive shots that got us out, it was soft dismissals today.

“As players we want DRS, I’m sure it’s money the reason we don’t [have it], but as players we’d love to have it.”

Australia skipper Meg Lanning:“It’s nice to get a win first up, our bowlers put England on the back foot early but England bowled well too so it’s good to get over the line. Early wickets always put you under pressure, especially against a strong top order.

“We didn’t think it would be straightforward, but Alyssa Healy showed everyone how to bat – she played very straight and pounced on any width. We feel we’ve got a little bit to work on, and I’m sure England will too.”

Australia all-rounder Ellyse Perry:“It was a weird one today. Every time we felt comfortable during the chase we lost a wicket, it was nice to be on the winning side and get first blood.

“As a group we bowled incredibly well. I was probably a little bit loose at times but as a team and bowling group it was a really great performance and it’s nice in a series to make a statement like that.”

Ex-England batter Ebony Rainford-Brent on TMS:“England battled so hard, they kept chipping away. It shows these two sides are closely matched. Australia have come out of the blocks today though.”

Australia v New Zealand women: Meg Lanning a big hit in cricket and hockey

Several whilst the greatest womenis participant on the planet, a chief and also the encounter of the activity in Australia regards Lanning the cricketer. But much might she have eliminated her other love, in baseball?

Today a complete-period cricketer, whether that be playing or spruiking the activity like a Cricket Australia ambassador, she nevertheless handles the peculiar sport for Hawthorn Hockey Membership within the women’s Premierleague, where you will find talk reviews concerning the palm-eye control of the teammate referred to as “Super”.

Baseball legend Stacy, the Victorian Start of Activity and also today the mentor of HHC, doesn’t have question what Lanning might have accomplished.

“Like A striker she offers goal feeling that is exemplary and scans the overall game a couple of moves forward to place himself into goal-scoring that is optimum jobs. The period Meg that was final and we played at HC she obtained eight objectives from eight activities,” Stacy said from Asia, where he’s training within the high profile regional category.

“an incredible work considering she’s restricted chance play or to practice into overdrive as her profession and obligations move. Her determination to get her work-ethic and problematic basketball are exemplary. As mentor I’d adore each week her to perform.

” if she utilized himself to a different sport – many – within the same manner she applies himself to cricket, I actually believe, I believe she might have attained the elite degree of that activity that is selected.”

Alternatively, Lanning made a decision to follow a choice that’s compensated himself and also the activity, cricket. Her newest problem is currently planning the Southern Superstars to get a three-complement sequence that is Twenty20 against Newzealand, starting in the MCG on Friday.

The smooth top-purchase strokemaker has already established another powerful domestic period, declaring her next Belinda Clark honor, and thumping significantly more than 1300 operates, including four generations, across all platforms.

Four years back, the following month Lanning, who becomes 25, was compared to the activity to Mark Warner in her quality and approach. She it is creating a status within the types of two notable sporting numbers – cricketing great Ponting the best women’s football player and it has extended to shine, and can’t stand dropping.

“to tell the truth, I view lots of activities that are various. Ponting was the individual that I viewed of increasing up lots. I liked the way in which he performed. He came at No.3 and really was intense and whether a wicket is about the first basketball, he’d consider the overall game towards the resistance, that we liked,” Fairfax Press was informed by Lanning.

“He was somebody at developing up that I looked. Somebody like Williams nowadays who it is really effective and is a sportsman generally and simply understands just how to get. I really like her character that is aggressive.

“I learn and try from sportsmen that are various… I really like observing how individuals start their company.”

Exactly the same might be stated of Lanning, who’s high, a powerful basketball along with running -striker.

About the area that is cricketing, the palm-eye control Stacy talked about may even be adequate for the male speed bowlers to be handled by her. Lanning, who created background whilst the first woman when at Carey to create a Public-School initial XI, claims the quickest lady she’s confronted hasbeen as much as h that is 130km – approximately medium-pace for males.

“the truth is, you’re not usedto it. I’m certain if we performed it increasing up that will OK – but itis that you’d not necessarily be properly used to, and confronted a reasonable little bit of it,” she explained.

“The men’s bowlers obtain a much more rebound. While [ coach ] Dawes and [ coach ] Mott toss within the nets to us, the largest factor may be the additional rebound they get the speed. It’s really a somewhat different position itis originating from.”

The Victoria Superstars skipper also offers a fragile contact, and her capability to produce pictures – as she did from the Renegades’ Sophie Molineux within the WBBL New Year’s Morning derby when she exposed her position and reduced broad of mid off, then your next basketball performed a far more traditional cover-drive – again assisted her top your competitionis run-rating checklist. Nevertheless, usually trying to enhance, she was not excessively pleased.

“I had been pleased with my period that is WNCL. When I might have preferred I had been a little discouraged appearing out of Srilanka, where I possibly did not create as numerous runs. It had been good to actually place some large ratings about the panel, that will be essential in fifty- over cricket, ” she explained.

“WBBL is just a difficult one – 14 activities is. It is difficult to maintain your type completely through. I had been also sporadic… But this is T20 cricket’s character.”

As chief, Lanning has significantly to consider. There is the requirement to preserve her very own type – – was said by a vital section of Steve Waugh strengthening people who additionally display leadership characteristics and while taking care of teammates. Stacy stated the regard Lanning instructions was likewise apparent about the baseball area.

“I frequently see it’s not since she’s chief of the Foreign womenis cricket group or that she’s a gifted baseball person, itis more the very fact her toes are securely on the floor, she enables people around her, comes with an interesting character and also to girls within the group she’s nevertheless their teammate Super,” he explained.

The individual documents of Lanning are anything to see. She turned the newest Aussie to publish a-one- annually later she notched the quickest century running to three numbers off 45 balls day millennium.

There is her 241 not out off 136 balls for Container Hill Cricket Membership within the Women Organization, the greatest personal rating in Women’s Premier firsts.

Pressing that in annually once the Superstars may attach a Global Cup protection in England Lanning is about her group earning, from the Twenty20 sequence a one day strategy against Newzealand.

“Both groups understand one another perfectly. I believe it’ll be considered a sequence that was excellent,” she explained. “there are several of the planetis greatest people in both groups, getting excited about getting them on.”
