Australia retained the women's Ashes with a six-wicket win over England in the first T20I yesterday. A career-best haul of four for 22 from Megan Schutt restricted England to 132 for nine before Beth Mooney's 86 &mdash; the highest score in a T20 in Australia &mdash; helped reel in the target with 25 balls to spare.
