From the Women’s Ashes to the ODIs between the West Indies and Bangladesh, to the under-19 Women’s T20 World Cup, there’s a lot for us to look back at in the world of Women’s sport. As usual, when there’s cricket around, the Mumbai Indians girls make headlines..

West Indies vs Bangladesh, 1^st ODI

Hayley Matthews: Making quick work of the 199-run chase, she got the Windies home in a canter, with 16 fours in a 93-ball unbeaten knock of 104. It in fact was one of those Hayley-doing-everything days, having picked up a couple of wickets as well in her spell of 2/41 to restrict the visitors to a smallish total.

Nat Sciver-Brunt: Although England were whitewashed in the three-match ODI series, Aapli Nat stood out in the third, being the pick of the English bowlers in her spell of 2/51 and then among the batters as well with her fighting 61. Alas, it wasn’t to be.
