SA have to take a risk here and bring the field up to stop the singles, too easy to just drop and run atm

[rich1uk]

not sure that was the time for that shot with it being easy to do it in singles

[rich1uk]

3 needed off the last over

will be a super-over if its a tie

[dan08]

Has there ever been a super over in a 50 over match before?

[rich1uk]

8th wicket down

still 2 needed from the last 4 balls

[rich1uk]

phew Shrubsole gets it thru the field for a 4 and the win

South Africa ran us close today. Credit to them.

Wolvardt is some player.

Never in doubt?

Well done England. Now go on and win it. You're definitely capable of doing so, but need to master those nerves.

Jenny Gunn. Can't believe she wasn't picked at the start, but she's really taken the opportunity, had a fantastic tournament.

Dane van Niekerk has been one of the top bowlers of the tournament, still tops the wicket charts, but didn't take a wicket against England in either game.

In another odd stat, while England have four batters in the tournament's top 10, including the leading run-getter, they don't have any bowlers in the top 10 wicket takers or best economy rates - you have to go down to 14 for top wicket takers. While Australia have three in the top 10. In some ways amazing that England have won seven on the bounce without a single bowler taking 9 or more wickets - I guess it shows the bowlers are really a unit, and they're winning on the strength of their batting.

might be a delayed start for the second semi today but hopefully will be clear to get a full game in

wonder why there was a days gap between the 2 semis

Kaur!

[dan08]

This is incredible!

[rich1uk]

This is incredible!

with the golf and the cycling on i haven't really been watching it, last i saw was when they were 102-3 after 26 overs and i thought they were struggling

they have scored at more than 10 per over for the final 16 overs

[rich1uk]

they end up scoring 179 off the last 16

what an innings from Kaur

she scored 131 off 56 balls in those last 16 overs

[Dr Cricket]

Never been happy to lose money than today what a knock.

I assume that everyone realises that India will win this comp because their players know that if they win they will become overnight multi-millionaires, while England will already subconsciously expect to have to settle for waiting another 30 or 40 years for global tournament success

written in the stars, I reckon
