Gutsy effort from Healy:
"The thrill of securing Australia's first Test win since 2015 was more than enough to sooth the pain of two broken fingers for skipper Alyssa Healy on Monday.
Ashleigh Gardner wrapped up the five wickets Australia required in just under 90 minutes on day five on Monday, securing an 89-run win and four crucial points in the multi-format series.
Healy, leading Australia in a Test for the first time, confirmed afterwards she had carried two broken fingers into the match at Trent Bridge, where she captained, kept wicket and batted across the five days."

"Alyssa Healy walked to the crease in Australia's second innings amid a collapse of 4-41 and under immense pressure after being dismissed for a duck in her past three Test innings.
Three almost became four when Healy edged a delivery from Kate Cross between the legs of English wicketkeeper Amy Jones on the second ball she faced.
But the Australian captain, leading her country in a Test for the first time, shook off a stuttering start and weathered a tricky spell from the England attack led by a rampant Sophie Ecclestone to post what could turn out to be a match-defining half-century."

"England have finally snapped their winless streak against Australia, but spinner Sarah Glenn expects the Ashes holders to hit back harder than ever at Lord’s on Saturday.
Australia missed a chance to retain the Ashes when they went down by three runs in front of more than 20,000 fans at The Oval on Wednesday.
It was Australia’s first loss to England in any format since February 2020, and only their second defeat in their last 35 white-ball matches against any opponent."
