Women’s ash: Australia’s 16-0 data dreams on England

We have heard it a lot in this winter – that England are not athletic as their opponents – and can be fitter.

The first thing is that it is nothing to do with seniority or youth – the average age of 28 in this series of Australia was compared to England’s 27.

And while England’s catching capabilities have been made a lot – he dropped seven catches a day of the test – his catching efficiency of 63% was only behind Australia’s 68. In fact, Australians dropped more possibilities in the series – 20 to 19 to 19.

Yellow and green butterfinger? No …

What raw numbers do not show that a drop is registered only when a fielder goes for catch.

So when Australia was creating a derogatory grip from Akash – athleticism was never seen continuously in women’s cricket before displaying – England was leaving simple opportunities.

Many of the Australian drops were difficult opportunities that England would not have tried.

And while there is no data for the run run in the area, naked eye suggested that Australia saved more than 20–30 per game compared to England.

Another solution to fitness is to do the ability to bat on time and in doing so, run more single than the opposition and convert people into Twos etc.

Across the series, England soaked about 200 dot balls compared to Australia (some perhaps down for the aforesaid extraordinary extraordinary fielding), while Alyssa Heli’s side created 111 and singles and 17 more twos.

Given that there was not much difference in the context of the hit of the sixes – Australia on the 17th of England’s 12 – this is the ability to turn on the strike and tick the scoreboard, with the hosts excellent.
