ICC Woman's World Cup

[wycbloods]

lol i thought same thing when i watched it
i was gonna ask why it swings so much, was it the conditions over there
or coz they bowl slower?

Think there has been studies done or similar that the optimum speed for swing bowling is around 120 km/h. Any less and it won't swing at all and the faster it is the less swing. Most international standard women would bowl no more than 130 km/h also they use a 142 gram ball as opposed to the men's 156 g.

The majority of the women have been bowling between 100-115.

There have been a few women bowling more regularly 110-125.

Did anyone see the interview with the West Indian player after the innings? What a charismatic person she is

[The Sleeping Giant]

I watched 5 minutes of this and seen the worst fielding I have ever seen. Is this really sport?
