England vice-captain Nat Sciver feels the team is ‘pretty positive after they fought back on day one of the women's Ashes Test at the Manuka Oval on Thursday. England had reduced Australia to 43/3 before Rachael Haynes (86) and captain Meg Lanning (93) shared a 169-run partnership for the fourth wicket. But in the end, England took out the duo before claiming two more as Australia ended day one at 327/7 in 97 overs.

"It was a pretty good day I think for us, I think we probably won the first session, we were really happy with taking three wickets with the new ball and then probably got a little bit wide and a little bit wayward in the middle session and then brought it back at the end. So, we feel, I think, pretty positive about the day that we had," said Nat after the match.
