![]() The keeper sets the cordon, captain or not, but didn’t. ![]() That second missed catch came after off-spinner Ash Gardner had come from around the wicket to over, but Jess Jonassen at slip stayed in a wide position rather than coming closer. Various missteps fell to Healy: stand-in captain, full-time keeper, who wisely dropped herself down the order rather than trying to keep opening batter as her third job. But they could not blame the umpires for Alyssa Healy not reaching a ball gloved down the leg side when Beaumont was on two or one edged between keeper and slip when she had 88. Leaning on high-school French, Beaumont means beautiful mountain, and Australia have felt like they were climbing one, though not so chuffed about the view. Last out, she had the highest women’s score for England with 208. These umpires didn’t, and Australia in confusion did not review – normally they would not have to.īeaumont batted through most of the third day, a needle drawing a thread of irritation through the visitors’ hide. Australia appealed, but it is up to an umpire to ask for a replay when unsure about a bump ball. It did not help that Beaumont had been reprieved by the umpires on 61, defending a ball into her boot and up to short leg. They started on the second day with a glut of full tosses, width either side, and errors in length, letting Tammy Beaumont and Heather Knight gloss over the early loss of Emma Lamb and ping the boundary repeatedly from Darcie Brown, Annabel Sutherland and Ellyse Perry.Įngland resumed the third day on 218 for two at better than four runs an over and carried on the same way, with Brown bowling wildly after having a wicket overturned on review, and Nat Sciver-Brunt laying into the buffet for 78.
