Ashes to Ashes?

A day at Lord's for the first ODI game in the women's Ashes series.
Here England celebrate the second of two early wickets, but Australia held on to see out their 50 overs with 203 runs & 2 wickets in hand.
When it was England's turn to bat they were always behind the required run rate.
Charlotte Edwards & Heather Knight accelerated the scoring, but when they were dismissed for 61 & 25 respectively, the England tail collapsed. All out in 47.3 overs giving the Aussies a win by 27 runs.
A great day's entertainment for £14, & perfect weather.
I've got sunburned knees...
