Alresford...

Ah, well, the England batters subsided to defeat this morning. Winning the Ashes will be difficult – if not impossible – from here. But what a great game it was! And what a great advert for women's cricket, in both long and short formats. I bet no batter has ever scored 200 and yet ended up on the losing side (Tammy Beaumont, 208). And the same goes for a bowler who takes ten wickets in a match (Sophie Ecclestone: 10 for 192). Instead it was Ash Gardner, with 12 for 162, who was player of the match.
