Tasmania were 0 for 3 (or 3 for 0 if you’re Australian), but look like they’re going to beat WA.

Exciting finish to the #VICvSA #WNCL game - Vic need 37 runs off 24 balls - Sutherland on 107, can she get them over the line?

154 - Tahlia McGrath's 154 today is the second highest score of any player for South Australia in a women's List A match, behind only Karen Rolton's 173 vs WA (19 Dec 1998).

Gritty.

Ruby Strange with 5 wickets on debut at the WACA including taking Lizelle Lee's. Wow. #WNCL

On the #cricket front - today is the first day of the 26/27 season of the #WNCL www.cricket.com.au/news/4579634...

When Sophie Molineux was named AUS captain, the 2 questions were:

1. Who?
and
2. Isn’t she always injured?

After the T20 World Cup we have an answer to the first.

But it seems the second remains a concern.
