England win the final ODI against Australia to tie the women's Ashes series 8-8. England's 2-1 win in the ODI series is Australia's first ODI series defeat for 10 years. Although Australia retained the ashes by drawing the series, England actually won more matches - 4 to Australia's 3.

Real shame the ground was half empty for such a crucial women's ashes match, maybe the interest isn't really there, despite what the media is trying to sell us. The total attendance for the entire 2019 series, which had the same format, was 32,000. The total attendance for the first 3 games of this series was 63,000 so the interest is clearly growing.

It would seem they don't. CAF's attitude seems to be play each other or don't play at all. Similar in Asia, where North and South Korea have been drawn together on several occasions.

Another brilliant win for England's women tonight to level the Ashes series at 6-6 with two games to play. In the first of three ODIs, Australia batted first after winning the toss and made 263-8. England looked well on course to beat that but lost wickets regularly. However, Heather Knight's 75 not out and a rapid unbeaten 19 from Kate Cross batting at 10 saw England home with 11 balls to spare.
Batter Alice Capsey was a surprise star with the ball, taking 1-37 from her 9 overs, the best economy rate of all England's bowlers. England's main spinner Sophie Ecclestone took a one-handed catch of Ben Stokes proportions early in Australia's innings.

That's some disparity in rankings for New Zealand! Interested as to why that is - do FIFA give more weight to matches against Pacific island nations or something? FIFA uses a purely Elo-based system for the women, which means things move more slowly (and which is why North Korea are still in the top 10 despite not playing for years). My rankings are based on a two-year time frame and during the last two years, New Zealand have been playing friendlies mostly against strong teams and losing pretty much every time, hence their low position. If they weren't co-hosting and had had to go through a qualifying process, they'd probably be between 50 and 70 on my list.

Only one member of the Philippines squad was actually born there. 18 were born in the US,two in Norway plus one from Canada and one from Australia. Given how well this selection policy worked for Morocco's men at the men's World Cup, I don't think the Philippines will be the worst team at this tournament.
