The T20I series between the West Indies Under-19 Women and USA Under-19 Women is now tied at 1-1 after the latter secured a 23-run win in the third T20I at the Sir Frank Worrell Memorial Ground in St. Augustine on Tuesday.

The USA posted 104-7 from their 20 overs after winning the toss and choosing to bat first.

Taranum Chopra led the way with 28* off 26 balls while Maahi Madhavan made 20 off 15 balls in support against two wickets apiece from Theanny Herbert-Mayers and Brianna Plummer.

The hosts were then dismissed for a disappointing 81 in 19 overs with captain Samara Ramnath being the only player to get past 10 with her 35* off 44 balls.

Aditi Kumar and Saanvi Immadi did the bulk of the damage with the ball for the Americans with 4-10 and 4-16, respectively.

The fourth game of the series is scheduled for Wednesday.

I thought I read last week that cricket West Indies wanted to help develop cricket in the US but the above result seems to suggest that Cricket USA should be busy trying to develop cricket in the region . Can the dead raise the alive?

You should take a glimpse at the matches... the standard is shyte lol

- Half of them can't even defend a ball.. all they do is swipe across the line.
- none of dem could play a cover drive or a decent off side shot.
- Can't run between the wickets, turning blind...

Ah could go on and on... but if this is the future for the women's team then CWI in serious trouble.

Can't blame the girls though... I am sure most of them played hard ball cricket for the first time in this year's regional tournament. Just goes to show how far behind we deh... in the other countries they would have been exposed to proper coaching since U9s or younger.

Yep

Further and further down we go

In England girls cricket is growing; they are allowed to play down the boys’ age groups by up to 2 years

We have 2 very good ones in our Sat teams; one even plays for Middlesex.
