The Oz girls are such a deeply talented group. There’s always someone stepping up putting in match winning performances. Now 2-0 up in the series.
Ash Gardner the star in the first game, Alana King in the 2nd (as well as Ellyse Perry).

The girls gave the Poms a right ol’ spanking today in the 3rd ODI.
Ash Gardner… what a beauty she is… hammered a ton and took an absolute blinder on the boundary. What a day she had
Tahlia McGrath back in form with a belligerent fifty. She hits the ball so well when on song.
Beth Mooney was her usual reliable self. Her and Ash stabilised the innings and then set up an onslaught.
Georgia Wareham… wow. Just came out and flogged the bowlers. Smacked an unbeaten 38 off 12 balls - hitting 5 fours and 2 sixes.
Capped off a great day with 2 for 27 with the ball
Alana King was Queen of the bowlers taking a five-fer - the first in her international career
So Australia just needs to win one more game and the Ashes are ours. 3 T20 matches and a Test to go…
