England produced a proud, purposeful display to deservedly beat Australia in Bristol and end a miserable series on a high
They are best team in the world by a mile, and for the most part they have completely outplayed England. But England will hope this was a glimpse of a brighter future, particularly in the performances of their two 20-year-old spinners, Sophie Ecclestone and the debutant Mady Villiers. They bowled beautifully to take combined figures of five for 42 from eight overs, which ensured an England victory despite a brilliant 60 not out from Ellyse Perry.
20th over: Australia 122-8 (Perry 60, Schutt 8) That’s a really impressive victory from England. It doesn’t change what has been a dreadful series, but they played with pride and purpose to deservedly beat an Australian side who were intent on going through the series unbeaten.
