Pressure does that, especially if you are victim to a dud call on your first ball.
And the slaughtering he took in 2 overs. I hope that's the last we've seen of him as a strike bowler.

Can't really blame him.  Smith handed him the ball.

Oh, I've watched most of it.   But, when a batsman of his class starts slicing/under cutting.....he knows he is gonna get caught.

The finish to the WBBL was pretty good.

They make some screamer fielding mistakes tho.

I wonder if the quality of women's cricket will improve now its getting more TV coverage and perhaps a wider range of athletes will consider playing cricket.

Will probably get a lot of people going "get back in the kitchen" to many of these players, until they up the competitiveness. I do like to watch the games, but it's difficult to get in to games where many of the players can't even hit to the ropes that are 5 meters in from the men's boundary setting. The amount of effort that they put in to those hits that go just about nowhere. Even Alyssa Healy was lucky to be awarded 6 runs on a hit that landed on the boundary on the full. Always thought that those were awarded 4 runs.
