Quite the game to start the tournament, West Indies defending 5 in the last over!

Beat me to the thread by seconds. Seconds I say!
But yes, wow, what a match. Big upset!

Not bad from Dottin to come on for her first bowl in the last over and take 2 wickets plus a run-out.

Wish I'd seen that live, the highlights are great.

I'm seeing this one live, hope it gets as close. Sciver is on another level to the rest of England.

Surprised it got as close as it did to be honest.

You'd think 3 defeats from three and they'd struggle to make the quarter-finals.

Yeah, probably need to win every game from here.
Unusual to see the opening bowlers letting them down. Will they stick or twist with LWH and/or Shrubsole? Interesting times ahead - I do find it interesting with the international team that they seem to either be entirely ruthless in ending careers (Edwards, Greenway, Hartley) or give people a million chances (LWH, Jones) with very little in between.

Oh dear oh dear.
LWH dropped for another spinner in Dean which really doesn't feel like what we needed.
Ecclestone tremendous again, but the fielding is so bad it hardly matters.

Wow. We knew they weren't going to win, but to do it like this... incredible.

England have won a game klaxon!
Unconvincingly for sure. NZ game now is basically knockout.

England have won a game klaxon! Unconvincingly for sure. NZ game now is basically knockout. Well, somehow, two weeks later, they're in the final. A remarkable turnaround. Sophie Ecclestone: really quite good Give them a 10% chance at best against an Aussie side composed largely of Terminators, but still, heck of a comeback.

Wyatt being PotM when she was dropped five times and Ecclestone got a six-fer seems generous.
Still, well done England for getting the silver. Didn't seem at all likely a few weeks ago! And it is a little sad that there were no real upsets in the end. No Asian teams in the semis either, not a great look.
