Champs Aussies looking ahead

– Australia’s women cricketers are already eyeing the defence of their World Twenty20 crown on home soil after cruising to victory over England, with skipper Meg Lanning saying their focus must now be on consistency.

Their eight-wicket win in Antigua on Saturday was Australia’s fourth world title in the short format and they want to make it five when the tournament is next played in 2020 at home.

Eight cities across Australia will host games. –
