the women's ashes started overnight in brisbane, with england losing the first one—day international alex blackwell top—scoring on 67 not out, and jessjonassen hitting a four to ensure australia's victory to go 1—0 up in the series. disappointing, we never want to lose, especially against australia, but we didn't play well enough, and they had a really good innings. you will be heartened knowing that you underperformed with the bat, probably 30 or 40 runs in the general consensus, but you took the game so close. we didn't bowl straight enough as well as we know we can, so we need to put a full performance next game, so yeah, some positives, but like i say, disappointing to lose. lewis hamilton could be crowned formula one world champion for the fourth time later. the mercedes driver will start on pole postiion for the united states grand prix, which begins at eight o'clock. his title rival, sebastian vettel, is in second place on the grid. marc marquez increased his lead at the top of the motogp standings to 33 points by winning the australian grand prix. the spanish honda rider took
