England Women Thrash Australia to Keep Ashes Hopes Alive

The England's Women Cricket Team beat Australia by seven wickets at Chelmsford keeping them in contention going into the final two matches.

It was Sarah Taylor's half-century and the 77 run partnership with Charlotte Edwards that really won it for the hosts.  The win puts the ladies in contention to retain the point based ashes with just two matches reaming, each worth two points, which England must win to make the final score 8-8.
