The one person I feel sorry for with all this is Nasser Hussain

He had a really great record that he held for more than 20 years, which looks like it’s going to be broken in the next couple of days.

Another cracking Zaltzman stat!

England haven’t won the 3rd test in Australia since 1965-66 series!

Elyse Villani is retiring from WBBL!!!

Confirmed tonight after the game on 7 that it was her last WBBL game and she is moving on.

What a way to retire after winning the trophy for the first time.

Get onboard the Cane Train people!

Canes have been the most dominant and destructive team all season, since the beginning I had money they would win it.

Now I’m all for the laws and playing regulations but this really is where common sense needs to take over.

Just take the 30 minutes and finish the game off now.

What benefit is it to anyone to string this out

That was so close to being the first game in which Ellyse Perry has scored 100+ and lost.

She’s never lost a T20, T20i, Test or ODI in which she has scored a century or more

WHAT A FINISH

The final ball of the final game of the regular season with everything to play for

Brilliant, simply brilliant.

ELLYSE PERRY YOU BEAUTY!!!!

That is a remarkable knock from Perry

Just goes to show you that class is absolutely permanent

Glad to see nothing has changed over the years.
Wake up to find England are getting well and truly pumped down under.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Strikers vs Hurricanes getting abandoned at KRO because of a stray ball in the Strikers innings warm up getting under the roller is both funny and annoying.

If I was Elyse Villani I would be very annoyed that they have lost out on a point through an action in the control of the opposition.

Jofra Archer has now bowled the most balls to Steve Smith without getting him out in test cricket.
Vernon Philander held the “record” of 214 balls.
Currently Archer is 215

Somerset are not having a great off season
Loosing a coach, Captain and Overseas star, is far from ideal.

To lose one may be regarded as unlucky
To lose two may be regarded as unfortunate
To lose three looks like carelessness
Hampshire Signing Amanda Jade Wellington for next season!!

Taking Wello from Somerset, where she’s essentially been for the last 2 years is a big steal from Hampshire.

Somerset are loosing players quite regularly atm, which isn’t looking good for them

Sydney Thunder top order failing once again.

And yet they continue to have Wilson open and Laura Harris at 7!

Madness really

Heat have once again failed to grasp a winning position and actually win

They had that game sewn up goon into the 19th and just lost it again.
