Australia thrashed Sri Lanka by 9 wickets and 166 balls to spare

I believe that puts them into the final with one game still to play

[scoob]

Saw some highlights of the eng vs aust game... WTF type of balls do they use? I saw it swing 3 feet through the air!
Maybe our mens team need to face the doris's a bit before heading to England!

[Johno6]

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.
