it just comes down to upper body strength really and lack of bat speed
the one thing i've thought of a few times is that given how important reaction times are when facing seam bowling, i would have thought the fact that the bowlers are bowling quite a bit slower that the batsmen would have more time to react as an individual's reactions wont vary between men and women dont know if that makes any sense or if i'm not explaining it very well |

england coach saying he doesn't think the fitness levels are good enough
given most of the squad, if not all, are now full-time, no excuse to have poor fitness levels especially when they dont play as much cricket as the men |

Pakistan, India, NZ, WI, SA have all gone full time and professional. |

Since becoming professional.
England women lost a test match to India. Ashes to Australia lost 2-1 to NZ, (did win the series though but the last 2 games don't count in the qualification.) lost to Australia in the World cup championship league. Won 2-1 to SA England are 6 in the table behind Australia, WI, NZ and SA. At best England scraping 4th place here and isn't a given since they got a series against WI coming up and they could possible lose a game to Pak and Sri lanka. but they probably done enough to go past india but if SA win couple of game against Aus or NZ then England are probably out and would have to qualify for the home world cup next year. |

But cricinfo suggests there will be heavy dew later (although the start is 30' earlier) so NZ will have to bowl with a wet'un. |

160-166 are the run lines.
so 163 is the par score. NZ are favourites and market has given them a 3 run advantage so it looks like 160 is the even money mark. |

that low bounce from jordan's first delivery might not bode well for batting second on this pitch

looked very 2 paced. Pace been hit out of the park but at the same time spinners that bowl slow or flight the ball been hit out of the park. Spinners that dart the ball or pace men that bowl slower ball and cutters have done well. Even the pace men that hit the deck have done well. |

If the dew doesn't come down reckon NZ are favourites here, got the better bowling attack for these conditions.
150 could be enough here. |

Rashid needs to bowl well here otherwise NZ could bat england out of the game, although for that to happen reckon NZ need 200.
