How many bounces does it take for her deliveries to get down the other end?
Your an idoit mate, Cathryn Fitzpatrick bowls as fast as your average male grade cricketer, i doubt you will even see the ball. Apparently she been clocked at 130 km/h. Most other bowlers bowl at 110km/h to 120km/h, im sure you would get a massive wake up call if you faced any them, especially when you consider they swing the ball twice as much as males.

Looks like England did practically all the work to get to the target then capitulated obligingly, shame.
No RA Birch to guide them home, that was England problem, they lost the game before it started.
