Tammy Beaumont

Obviously purists will question it, I mean why wasnt the 20/20 enough? But in fairness the 100 has been done so well so slick and it allows 2 matches too .......Plus the test stars were available as the ashes ended pretty early and the weather has held off a wee bit........The games themselves have been mosty incredible too.......Big crowds in every game Ive watched too....Heck this is even stateside too now in the newly formed major league cricket we dont like cricket we loves it

The technical  aspect of the game, regarding  fielding,  and quite astonishing creative batting is also a plus. In this context  I would like  to draw attention to a remarkable  innings  today by Tammy Beaumont,  which was a sheer joy to watch. After some incredible  performances  in the ashes , we have had some wonderful cricket this summer, but Tammy's innings,  just added to that. Wonderful  shot selection,  power,  timing , the lot. It was the first century  in the hundred, by a woman. This is the computer age, so we need as many young people out playing sport, so It's great to see Tammy hopefully inspiring  girls as well as boys to pick up a bat. Great stuff !
