Annabel Sutherland has made a crucial 50 with the bat to fire Australia to an Ashes win, whilst Marcus Stoinis made his debut for San Francisco in the USA.

Annabel Sutherland’s crucial 50 has helped Australia defeat England in the second ODI of the Women’s Ashes, meaning that Australia retain the Ashes. 

Coming in at 5/158, Sutherland went better than a run a ball to make her first 50 of the limited overs format after making her maiden test century a fortnight ago.

She was also handy with the ball, conceding just 2 runs from her only over, proving pivotal at the end of the match, as Australia scraped home by 3 runs.

Marcus Stoinis was part of the first ever side for the San Francisco Unicorns in the inaugural edition of Major League Cricket in the USA. 

The Unicorns have won 1 game and lost their other, leaving them mid table with 3 fixtures left before finals.

Brody Couch is also a part of the Unicorns squad but yet to feature in the tournament.
