Shattered Aussie women eye World T20 Australia's women cricketers are turning their attention to the World Twenty20 after having their Ashes dream shattered by England at Bellerive. The tourists won the series on Wednesday with a thumping nine-wicket T20 victory, skipper Charlotte Edwards leading from the front with an England record 92 not out. England retain the Ashes won at home last year and go into the final two fixtures with an unassailable 10-4 points advantage in the series. Stand-in Australian skipper Meg Lanning said her side had believed they could snatch an unlikely series win when they won back-to-back one-day matches heading into the T20 leg. "We're obviously shattered," she said. We came here to win the Ashes back and we haven't been able to do that. But Lanning, who made a career-high 78 from 54 balls, said the remaining matches in Melbourne and Sydney would be a chance to begin preparations for Bangladesh. "We've got a T20 World Cup coming up in a couple of months' time," she said. We want to keep some good form going and hopefully put together a game where we can get batting and bowling going together because I think that's something we've struggled to do so far. It was Edwards who the Southern Stars struggled with on Wednesday. The England captain smashed 14 boundaries and a six in her 59-ball innings to make the fourth-highest score by a woman in a T20 international. She finished it in emphatic style, with a boundary and 13 spare deliveries. "She came out and dominated from ball one and we couldn't do much to stop her," Lanning said. Edwards said she had taken it on herself to ensure the series didn't go down to a nerve-wracking final two matches. "If I was there at the end, I knew we'd win the game," she said. I wasn't going to give away the Ashes. Earlier, Lanning cracked nine boundaries and a six to make the third-highest score by an Australian woman in T20 internationals as the Stars reached a competitive 3-150. Under the Ashes multi-format introduced last year, England grabbed six points with their victory in the Test and two each from a one-day and T20 win. Australia's four points came from their two one-day victories. Lanning said the points system could be improved. "Perhaps six points for a Test match is a lot seeing as we don't play a lot of Test matches," she said. Perhaps four points might be a little bit more realistic.
