That brings an end to the first game of the Womens Ashes 2025. Australia Women will be happy with the win, but England Women will be looking forward to bouncing back in the upcoming games. For now, it's a goodbye from our side. See you later!
Healy: Pretty happy with the win. Getting those two points. Think we could have been clinical with the bat. We did pretty well to chase it down. Happy to spend time in the middle, nice to contribute the way we did. Happy to spend some time at the crease and gain some confidence.
Heather Knight: Really pleased with the bowling. Bell was the best today, she was outstanding.
