England fast bowlers Ellie Anderson and Alexa Stonehouse took wickets early before legspinner Hannah Baker’s 3 wickets crippled Australia. She bowled Ella Hayward with the varieties of her flight and then got enough success from the surface to have Australia captain Rhys McKenna caught at mid-off and then trapped wicketkeeper Paris Hall three balls later. At last England won by 3 runs.
This will be exciting to see when India women’s U19 destructive batting team will face the England’s exceptional bowling side.
