England have two players holding onto the No.1 spot on the ICC Women’s ODI Player Rankings, with skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt (batting) and spinner Sophie Ecclestone (bowling) both currently rated as the best in the world in their specific profession and the duo likely to play a major role in the side’s race to this year’s World Cup title.
Edwards suggested the pair were in good shape ahead of England’s World Cup tilt and said the team were working extremely hard at getting rid of the tag as being a poor fielding side.
“It is something we are working on, we know we have that tag now,” Edwards added.
“Sometimes I get frustrated because we can drop one catch and we are labelled a bad fielding team, even though we have fielded really well otherwise.
“I am confident we can get to a place where people are talking really positively about our fielding.”
