England fall to two-wicket defeat by Australia in Women's Ashes opener

England fell to a two-wicket defeat against Australia within the gap one-day international of the multi-format Women's Ashes series throughout a tense low-scoring affair in Leicester.



Nat Sciver's (64) period was the highlight of a poor batting show from European nation as a top-order collapse had seen the hosts slump to 19-4, with Amy Jones and Heather Knight each falling for ducks, before they recovered to 177 all out.
The Southern Stars created a fast begin to their low chase, with Alyssa Healy (66) smoking Anya Shrubsole for a four so a six early in her innings however European nation fought back well and took regular wickets to stunt the visitors' chase.
