Cricket:England fight back with win in first Women's Ashes T20 international


England Women fought their way back into the Ashes series with a seven-wicket win over Australia Women in the first T20 international at Chelmsford.
Displaying high intensity and energy in the field – the kind of which has been lacking in their recent ODI and Test defeats – England restricted Australia to just 122-8 from their 20 overs, picking up three run-outs.
Sarah Taylor hit 50 from just 43 balls and England's captain Charlotte Edwards 39 from 42 as the pair put on 77 for the second wicket to help England on the way to an impressive win inside 18 overs.
