Wellington, who are playing in this match, set a target of 281 runs, that too in 50 overs, which was feasible. All their players worked together to execute the star goal and this first player showed a performance like nature, but the next two players after the first player were out at the start, but the rest of the team did not weaken themselves after seeing them, but together they took the match forward like a good team. Not only that, but they had no answer in batting but also in bowling. In about 36 overs, all the players of the other team were dismissed that too for 163 run which meant that the Northern District team faced failure by 116 run and Wellington achieved a brilliant victory. Nathan Smith scored 64 run which was the highest score in today match.The rest also played well but did not score that many runs.

Their batsmen scored these runs with good effort and work hard and consolidated their victory with this target. Their batsmen lost some wickets and if they had controlled them, it would have been a big advantage for them because in the next matches they would not show carelessness and their test would be even stronger. Their good bowling also supported them and made it very difficult for the opposing team due to which they victory enough easily. Northern District batsmen played very badly and instead of defeating the opposing team, they weakened themselves and failed in the match. If they had taken advantage of a good innings of 50 overs, they could have achieved this target but they could not complete the runs and were out without playing a full innings of the first innings and failed in the match.

Northern District team had it difficult as it did not have energy and focus and lost all wickets before using its entire 50 overs since they had taken too many risks other than playing safely. Wellington that was winning, on other hand, was highly controlled, and although they lost some of their players, scoring lots of runs made their bowlers to give more pressure to other team to win without any problem. Wellington used great teamwork to make game to appear less difficult, although they have to be careful of losing wickets too soon in future, while Northern District made huge mistake in not batting entire time.

Did anyone watch the match between West Indies Women vs Sri Lanka Women yesterday? Yesterday was the first match of the ODI series between West Indies Women vs Sri Lanka Women, the match was very competitive. Sri Lanka Women batted first and scored 240 runs. Whereas West Indies Women were trailing by 10 runs and they scored 230 runs. Actually the target of 240 runs was not very big but the top order batsmen of West Indies Women could not do well. If the top order batsmen of West Indies Women could have done well then West Indies could have won. However this match was at West Indies Women's home ground but they could not take advantage. Since Sri Lanka Women won the first match, the next two matches are going to be challenging for West Indies Women. The batting line of West Indies Women was very bad in the first match so if they want to win the next two matches then the batting line will have to improve but I think Sri Lanka Women will win the series.

Sri Lanka Women were only 10 runs away from defeat but their good and hard bowling worked hard due to which they succeeded due to their good target. Their choice of batting first was enough good and strong according to this victory but still their batsmen should play a good innings in 50 overs so that in the next matches they become a strong target with their strength and good effort. This was a match played honestly by them due to which they are seen playing with their hard work in this match. In these two matches, West Indies Women will have to play strong and hard and no opportunity will be created for Sri Lanka Women so that their victory does not decrease. After this series, a T20 series will also start between them and which team is better and stronger among the two will be known only by their good effort.

Northern District team had it difficult as it did not have energy and focus and lost all wickets before using its entire 50 overs since they had taken too many risks other than playing safely. Wellington that was winning, on other hand, was highly controlled, and although they lost some of their players, scoring lots of runs made their bowlers to give more pressure to other team to win without any problem. Wellington used great teamwork to make game to appear less difficult, although they have to be careful of losing wickets too soon in future, while Northern District made huge mistake in not batting entire time.

I agree with you although Northern District women did not perform particularly well because Wellington Women bowling was responsive but as a result Northern District won by 67 runs against Wellington woman.Wellington had a golden opportunity to win the final but they missed this opportunity.If they had batted as well as bowled the final would have been Wellington because Northern District Women scored 182 runs in the allotted overs which was passable.However Wellington Women team would have lost all their batsmen on the first ball of 41 overs and would have lost the match. Despite being second on the points table they could not achieve such an easy aim which is why they proved to be very weak. On the other hand Northern District proved that they are a strong team and they faced defeat only once.Northern District Women team is lucky.They win the final brilliantly despite their poor batting.

This was the first ODI match between Sri Lanka women and West Indies women. In this match, Sri Lankan team proved that it is a better and stronger team than West Indies team which can handle any situation because the other team has 0 point in the table and Sri Lankan team got two point. The target set by Sri Lankan team in this 50over match was not that special, which was 240 run, but it does not prove the victory or defeat of the match, but after chasing the other team and the first team that has taken to bat, it depends on the bowling of the first team.The name of the player who gave the highest performance are harshitha samarawickrama and hasini perera. One of them scored 66 run and the other scored 61 run. One of the players of the second team also scored 66 run and the other 50 run but could not win this match and they were dismissed in this first ODI.I faced failure in the match.

Western Australia won this match due to fact that they went out as steady team unlike Victoria who over depended on only one player. Despite fact that Victoria Tom Campbell, scored amazing 105 runs, his team did not help him enough, and got total of 231 runs which is not very high in new way of Australian cricket.
However, Western Australia chased goal too easily due to good play by Joel Curtis who got 91 runs and Cameron Bancroft who gave not-out 70 runs. Victoria was too careful and unable to make enough to take on steady team such as Western Australia since one hundred is not going to win game when other parts of batting list fail to do their part at all.

This match was played between women, which proved that not only men can play well, but women can also play this game well. Sri Lanka won this match. Sri Lanka has improved a lot, due to which they won this match. Their women have worked very hard to win this match, which plays an important role in winning. In this match, West Indies won the toss, but Sri Lanka has taken advantage of it and taking advantage of the opportunity, Harshitha Samarawickrama has scored 66 runs, but she has failed to complete her century, but no matter, this is also a good score. In comparison, West Indies Stafanie Taylor has also scored 66 runs, which was later run out. I was not expecting Sri Lanka to win, but they have shown a good performance. If the Sri Lankan women had worked hard, they could have scored more runs, but they have also made this score well, due to which they won this match by 10 scores.

By playing first Sri Lanka Women team scored 240 runs and lost 6 wickets. It was not a tough total which they scored. Nowadays 240 runs making in T20 so we can't consider it good total. Some players scored great runs but they used more balls, Harshitha Samarawickrama scored 66 runs in 105 balls so it was not good batting. If they played little fast then they could score 300 plus but they could not do this.

On the other hand West Indies Women team bowled well but in batting they showed poor performance, they stopped opponent team to make more runs but when they took batting then they showed disappointing performance just 10 runs was remaining to win the match if they secured wickets and played little fast in ending overs then easily they could win the match. But Sri Lanka team showed effort great at the ending stage and won the match with a great victory.

Sri Lanka squad once again succeeded in defeating their opponent but match was very close and West Indies lost by narrow outcome. Sri Lanka women squad was begun match first with batting and batters were collected 208 scores off 50 overs inning. West indies batters reached quite close to defeat Sri Lanka women but they fell short by 14 scores. Vishmi Gunaratne  batter was top scorer of this match and she played amazing batting inning and collected 58 scores. Harshitha Samarawickrama performance and her inning was quite supportive and built partnership with Vishmi Gunaratne  and she collected 35 scores. From bowling side, Inoka Ranaweera and Sugandika Kumari played significant role in victory and both bowler picked up 3 and 3 wickets of West Indies Women squad. Sri Lanka squad is now leading one day format competition with 2 victories.

It was a winning moment in history of Sri Lanka Womens Cricket team that won their first ODI series in West Indies after 20 years of tight win in Grenada by 14 run gap. Sri Lankan bowlers protected their total of 208 by help of three wickets by Inoka Ranaweera and stopped West Indies to 194 runs. As West Indies found it hard to complete their chase of them playing at home pitch, steady spin attack and better fielding was the difference, putting them on an unreachable lead of 2-0 in the three-match series.

It is because of their poor performance that they have lost because of an easy target. If they had worked hard and struggled, their target would have been better and their players would not have lost their wickets owing to their mistakes, but they turned themselves into this defeat by playing badly. Campbell Kellaway The better performance of this player made this target much better, otherwise this target would not have been 230. Although there was not much pressure on their bowlers, owing to which they could not have improved the target of 230. WA's performance was better, they achieved this target by working hard and playing well. Congratulations to WA on this win, they should continue to play with such better performance so that their wins will remain better.

Actually the result of the second match was as expected, West Indies women came close to winning again, they lost the first match by 10 runs and the second match by 14 runs. I would say that the reason for the defeat of West Indies women was the failure of the batsmen. In the second match, the bowling line of West Indies women was very good, because Sri Lanka women were restricted to only 208 runs. Actually the target of 209 runs was not very big, so West Indies women had a chance to win this match but they could not take advantage of the opportunity. West Indies women are not doing well at home, it is their failure, since West Indies women have lost the series, now they should try to win the third match to avoid a whitewash. But I think West Indies women will be whitewashed.

Sri Lanka Women cricket team performance is at top because they have players who are giving great effort for their team. Vishmi Gunaratne role was crutial in this match because she made partnerships in this match and she made half century in this match when it was need of the team and she was dominant player in this match. West Indies Women team collapse because they could not make partnership in this match and wickets fell back to back abd target was not big in this match and they lose the match at the end of the match and Sri Lanka Women team won the series easily and now they will play next match on Feb 25 which will be good match because Sri Lanka Women team will try to white wash because have good combination of players who will play well in next match.

Indian Women Vs Australian Women

1st ODI between Australian Women and India Women will shows beginning of famous goodbye tour of Australian captain Alyssa Healy. Although Australia goes in as top ranked nation, India has big mental help, after winning recent T20I series 2-1, and winning in ODI world cup semi final last year with largest score chase in history. Phoebe Litchfield from Australia and Smriti Mandhana from India are in mood of doing great, well, while Indian spin attack will aim at controlling middle parts, in Brisbane ground which has been known to give speed and bounce. I think that this fight of giants is real test of strength. While history is in favor of home ground help of Australia but recent push of India and home game of star leg spinner Alana King give this series opener 60-40 game.

Phoebe Litchfield from Australia and Smriti Mandhana from India are in mood of doing great, well, while Indian spin attack will aim at controlling middle parts, in Brisbane ground which has been known to give speed and bounce. I think that this fight of giants is real test of strength. While history is in favor of home ground help of Australia but recent push of India and home game of star leg spinner Alana King give this series opener 60-40 game.

Indian women won the T20I series by a margin of 2-1, and their morale would be high. The ODI series will be farewell occasion for Alyssa Healy, and therefore we can expect the Australians to play really hard. Beth Mooney will be the full time keeper for Australia after the departure of Healy. Alana King missed the T20I series has been included for the squad for the ODI series, and so is Tahlia McGrath. For India, Smriti Mandhana has been scoring runs, but poor form of Jemimah Rodrigues should be a concern. First ODI will be played at the Brisbane Cricket Ground, and the track will favor pace bowling.
