In truth, the 8,000 or so supporters who turned up to to date did not see a game worthy of a showpiece final. Taylor is a cambridge maths graduate and allows her numeracy skills throw her confidence when chasing totals. Women's cricket is loving popularity it has never found earlier thanks to the financial backing of the england and wales Cricket panel and the executions of an england team who are already world champions at the 50 -over format. Taylor is one of various members of the england team who are semi-professional done backing from the opportunity To Shine initiative. It was a shame, in a sense, that the 2 best teams did not contest the final, but as england dead australia in the semi-finals and New zealand- who beat australia in the radical stage- in the final, there can be no doubt that the best side triumphed. This tournament has been a triumph for the administrators and a key 1 been the way the women's competition has dovetailed with the men's. Though they get the most formidable top 3 in the women's game and once charlotte edwards, the captain, had fit the trend with 4 fours in her 25, england quickly began to dominate the bowling. Claire taylor on Friday marshalled a campaign chase against australia at the Oval that was among the best seen at either the men's or women's tournament to hold england into a Lord's final against New zealand. The semi-final between england and australia at the brit Oval will undergo through more than any former women's equal to transfer perceptions, replete as it was with high skill flats, office and drama. New zealand posted a barely adequate 85 after charlotte edwards, the england captain, decided that the 10.30 am start gave her no choice but to bowl first.
