Australia’s cricket captain Pat Cummins has told England goalkeeper Mary Earps to “play by the rules” in an amusing Ashes call back ahead of the Women’s World Cup semi-final. The two sporting rivals go head-to-head in Sydney on Wednesday 16 August, with a place in the final up for grabs. Ahead of kick-off, Cummins was asked if he had any advice for England’s shot-stopper - and whether she should “stay on her line” if penalties are required. “Yeah, play by the rules,” he laughed, calling back to the Jonny Bairstow stumping controversy in the second Test at Lord’s earlier this summer.
