West Indies Women head coach Courtney Walsh has expressed disappointment with an overall tepid batting display in a 3-0 One Day International series loss to England Women.
After losing the first two matches by margin of 142 runs, things did not get better for the Caribbean team as England closed out the series with another dominant display in 151 run win margin on Friday.
At the crease for the series, overall, while England averaged 274, the Windies could only manage 131, producing their lowest total of in the final game, avter limping to 105. On the back of a battling display against New Zealand Women, in September, Walsh admits that he was expecting a better performance from the team.
“I thought that it was a poor series by us. We did not play the type of cricket that we wanted to play. England outplayed us,” Walsh said.
“The bowling was not bad and the fielding was not bad but in all three games the batting wasn’t what we expected, wanted or were looking for,” he added.
“It was a lot of disappointment because I know we can play better cricket than that and we did not show that.”
Rashada Williams was the team’s highest scorer over the 3 matches, making a combined total 93 after scoring a half century in the first match. The team will now turn its attention to the T20 series, which bowls off on Sunday.
