India W vs Australia W - Only Test (D/N), Carrara, Sep 30 - Oct 3 2021

[puneet28]

There was no thread about it. 

 

Australia chose to field after winning toss and we are going good so far. 

India 132/1 after 44 overs with Smriti playing at 80*

100 for Mandhana. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Both her and Kohli wear no. 18 Jersey.

Following a women's test for the first time, so pardon the noob question - How many overs per day in women's test? Already 20+ overs bowled and Cricbuzz shows another 88 remaining. So total of 110 overs, looks a lot even if some overs were added for yesterday's rain.

Poonam & Mithali to make sure no one watches this test anymore.  Good thing is Kaur is not fit & Yastika will come in next. 

This trio otherwise is totally sick

100 overs in a day. And a match goes for 4 days. A team can give follow on after 150 lead. Rest all same as men's cricket.

Poonam Raut walks despite being given not out

Barely been following this game, but credit to the women for playing well so far.

 

Find it hard though to really appreciate women's cricket, hell I would rather watch IPL than them. In fact I would rather watch 1st class match between two Indian states than women's cricket.

[Lord]

Are there points for 1st innings lead?

You have beem missing some amazing ODI matches in this very series

 

Most cricket forums like reddit, english forums, aussie forums had pages and pages of discussions on thise matches, they were definitely more interesting than many IPL matches 

 

This series is what convinced me that quality of womens cricket has improved by so much

Umm..  Shafali lacks gift of timing in her strokes.  Very hackish.  Richa Ghosh looks more naturally talented than her & has bigger range.  Nice to see she got picked for WBBL now.

Im not trying to be disrespectful when I talk about womens cricket. I mean I even followed a few games in the World Cup in 2020 when India did well and that young girl who bats well too.

 

I think its ok, sure the standard has increased but its till several levels lower than mens state cricket.

 

Even if the talent does rise, I still would rather spend my time doing other things. Sure if no other sport is on and I have nothing to watch, I will watch it, but I will never go out of my way to watch a game.

Drawn. Why they didn't go for a win. India could have declared when the lead was 220.

Nice performance girls. Well done. Hope they win the WTC.

There is no WTC..  Women barely play any test.
