We need to try and get over the line again and keep that momentum with us.” Australia’s Alyssa Healy reflected on a success for women’s cricket after a crowd of 20,000 packed into the Oval for the occasion, but said her side had only themselves to blame for allowing England back into the game. “It was a great game of cricket at one of the most iconic grounds in England, what a great showcase for women’s sport,” said Healy.
