Lancs Thunder making a pigs ear of their first innings

45-8 atm

good to have a thread for this can stick it in t20 room if poss? i know im being a pain lol

I always forget about the T20 forum

Lancs get thrashed

and i thought they looked like they had a strong team

Heather Knight scores a very rapid 97 to slaughter the Diamonds, but gets out trying to hit the money shot

still.... take a boo, lass....take a boo!

Slow going tonight

Vipers posted a mere 105 and the Lightening are only just about keeping up with the rate

Lightning have just been pacing themselves. A couple of quick fours eases the pressure somewhat

Stars were in a whole heap of trouble, but Nat Sciver and Marizanne Kapp have probably saved their bacon

162 is probably a very decent score. Storm will have to bat well to make it through to the final later

just noticed that Shrubsole opened for Western Storm.... unsuccessfully, as it happens

odd decision

this is, of course, another of those tournaments where the best team gets hamstrung for being the best team, and comes into the final cold against the not best team who had the chance to warm up for the main event

Lightning are getting creamed by Lizelle Lee, who by batting a couple of hours ago is now continuing to bat


which kind of feels like she has effectively been given a life earlier

Lightning having a bit of a 'mare

I hate this 'go straight to final, do not pass go, do not win cup', nonsense

the best team in the groups getting tonked in the final


and why wouldn't they? No cricket for about a month and then not allowed any sort of warm up earlier this afternoon....

it really is a stupid idea

whoever came up with it as a concept should be made to give back the wages he earned while thinking it up.

not even going to be close

just a plain old thrashing

Congratulations to whoever first thought it would be a good idea to make the semi final the final, and the final the damp squib

a marketing masterpiece

not that the Stars will care, of course.... nor should they... congratulations to them too
