I think it was Lees?Crawley very lucky first ball
I understand there isn’t many threatening to replace him but he really is incredibly lucky to have had as many chances as he has
Yep I’ve had a shocker there lolI think it was Lees?
You’re still thinking in old England terms!I think it's going to be pretty tense!
Well I certainly was at 5.15 - with the benefit of another few hours it is completely obvious it would be a stroll in the park!You’re still thinking in old England terms!

Had no idea about a Mankad!Shame on Deepti Sharma to win the Third ODI by doing a "Mankad". Shame on the rest of the Indian Women's cricket team for not withdrawing the appeal.
Within the rules but not within the spirit of the game. I would be saying the same if England had done it.
I personally don’t have a problem with it. If the batter is halfway down the wicket by the time the bowler releases the ball then that is cheating - it makes it much harder for the fielding team to get a runout. Either don’t steal ground as the non-striker, or be ready to be dismissed in that way.
I'd go as far as saying she was still in her crease when the delivery was started, the Indian bowler stopped halfway through her action. Should have been a dead ball.That would be fair enough but if you watch the side-on shot, the England batter is not advancing up the pitch unfairly.

Agree completely - and think Jimmy is spot on here. For me it's an absolutely shameful way to win/end a game. At the home of cricket of all places! I've played a lot and could never, ever do that as a bowler. Prefer to keep my integrity intact.I'd go as far as saying she was still in her crease when the delivery was started, the Indian bowler stopped halfway through her action.

Dirty way to win.
