I’m trying not to cry – Heather Knight ‘gutted’ as England beaten again An emotional England captain Heather Knight admitted she was fighting back the tears following her side’s latest defeat which leaves Australia on course for an unprecedented 16-0 Ashes clean sweep.
Beth Mooney scored a brilliant 94 as England were set a target of 163, but they were reduced to 39 for five and then dismissed for just 90 runs, with only captain Knight (40) and Danni Wyatt-Hodge (17) making double figures.
England slumped to a 72-run loss in the third and final T20 at the Adelaide Oval to trail Australia 12-0 with one Test match to follow at the MCG next week.
Asked how she was feeling after her side’s latest setback, Knight told BBC Radio Five Live Sports Extra: “I am trying not to cry, you always try to do that.
Knight continued: “We will keep fighting and we need to draw a line under the white-ball stuff and concentrate on the Test match.
