lawn 1..
Alix has rushed badly to mid court, tries to roll to 4B, hasn't got there.. has R got a shot.. if not she is laying up on the B baulk???
Aiken and Alison looking, and asking for a ref.. looks wired from here..
Alison lifts R and there is immediately a protest from Aussie..
23 Apr 2018 9:21AM (Tournament); 12 Readers
not sure whats going on, could R have hit B and K.. that wasn't checked.
Liz fleming on the lawns now..
23 Apr 2018 9:23AM (Tournament); 11 Readers
looks like the kiwis have got the lift.. two balls on B baulk..
two big clangers tactically there.. one on lawn 2 with forgetting contact, and one on lawn 1 not looking at lift..
I thought as much the roll was attempted that it was a risky event
