England v Scotland: Women’s T20 World Cup – live | Women's T20 World Cup 2024 Key events Australia all but cemented their place in the last four, but their victory might be filed under P for ‘Pyrrhic’. Their skipper, Alyssa Healy, limped off as she was steering her team to a comfortably run chase against Pakistan. Healy could return to full match sharpness but the same is sadly not true for bowler Tayla Vlaemink who dislocated her shoulder while fielding. Preamble England have their target in sight. A win today would effectively see them qualify for the semi-finals. But that’s not enough. Arguably the more important objective is to top the group and therefore avoid Australia in the first knock-out game. A win today over Scotland would bring them closer to their goal. They were excellent against South Africa five days ago, timing their run-chase to perfection. There were splutters against Bangladesh, particularly with the bat, but their impressive battery of spinners secured a comfortable victory. Of all the teams still in the fight for a semi-final berth from Group B – along with South Africa and the West Indies – England have the lowest run-rate. A better show with the willow today. Toss and teams to come. Play to start at 11am BST. Source link Posted: 2024-10-13 10:20:29 |
