Last-ball thriller on the south coast, but sadly a bridge too far for England as Australia cling on to win by 3 runs and retain the Ashes. Nat Sciver-Brunt played an innings worthy of Nelson for her 111 not out, but couldn't quite find the boundary off the last couple of deliveries; some crucial drops in the first innings and an abysmal final over when Georgia Wareham tonked Lauren Bell around the park for 26 made all the difference in the end. A titanic effort from the lasses though, and dead rubber or not, it would be nice to see them hit back and tie the series in Taunton.
