Wisden 2025!

Having a separate Wisden 5 for men and women would mean not often ending up with (what appears to be) a single token inclusion of a woman, but a separate award may not be reported on by media or mentioned as an afterthought with the main focus being on what they see as the 'real' award (the men's).

Intriguingly, this would bring us full-circle from the early radio coverage of baseball pioneered by Ronald Reagan (yes… that Ronald Reagan!) who used to call games from a raw ticker-tape feed of the score, and just made up what was actually happening in play!

The ECB website has a fixture page for the Women's One Day Cup, which includes League 2. (Yes - it says "League 2" not "Tier 2".)

"Lined up" definitely isn't quite the same thing as "confirmed" or "announced"; but let's see if we get an emergency press release from the ECB in the next 20 minutes...!!! (It does track with what we've heard.)

So Bangladesh survive by the skin of their teeth! Another example of why cricket should be aiming to minimise play-last advantage. West Indies had the advantage of a precise target only because Bangladesh finished before WI started their chase. It was nearly enough to get West Indies through!

Drama at the qualifier. West Indies went for it - an incredible effort - and in the 11th over Stafanie Taylor miscalculates - hits a 6 which wins the game, but leaves the Windies short on NRR - she needed to hit a 4 THEN a 6!
