It\u2019s been a mixed bag, winning T20 series against India and New Zealand, a drawn ODI series against NZ, before reaching but not crossing the line in the two big ones \u2013 losing the World Cup final to Australia and the first women\u2019s Test at Lord\u2019s to India. They\u2019ve wrapped up this ODI series against Ireland already, with props to Maia Bouchier and Issy Wong, Today they hope to make it a whitewash \u2013 assuming the weather at New Road is better than the teeming rain outside my window.
