Key events
Yesterday was also a record breaking day, as 15,432 fans were in at Lord’s. The most ever for a single day of women’s Test cricket.
We’re surely heading towards the record for the most attended women’s Test ever? Although I’ll have to get to googling to confirm that.
If you want some extra reading to settle into your Sunday morning. Raf also put together this excellent feature ahead of the Test match.
I can’t stop thinking about the football. He’s only 23!
Was an absolute ghost town this morning travelling across London. Think there might be a few dusty heads kicking around and having a few more hours kip. Not here at the Guardian OBO though. Fit, firing and ready to go.
45 minutes away from the start of day three now at Lord’s. If England are going to pull off an unlikely victory they’ll need to hit the ground sprinting today. Lots of wickets to be taken.
Want to catch up on what happened yesterday? Well, look no further than Raf’s report.
Kranti Gaud was the star of the show for India. She made history as her five-wicket haul meant she became the first woman to get her name up on the Lord’s honours board.
Preamble
It’s Bellingham! Just 23-years-old. Goodness, gracious me.
How has everyone spent their Sunday mornings? I’ve been watching Jude Bellingham montages and I will not be stopped from doing so.
That being said, I’m also angling for some more Test cricket. And on this weekend of sport we approach the start of day three at Lord’s where England are very much behind the eight-ball. India lead by 269 runs in their second innings and they’re only one wicket down. Charlotte Edwards’ team needs a miracle and fast.
Also, if you missed it, some massive news last night as Heather Knight announced she would be retiring from international cricket after this match. What is it with this summer and big players stepping away?? Williamson, Stokes, Knight. Somebody make them stop.
Anyway, if you do want to get in touch and recall some of your favourite Knight moments. Get in touch here.
