Commonwealth Games gold the icing on the cake for an incredible team that already has the T20 and ODI World Cups in a bursting trophy cabinet<\/span><\/p>\n

Megan Schutt ranks Australia’s Commonwealth Games gold-winning victory as one of the best of her career, saying the reality of what the team had achieved at Edgbaston was only just starting to sink in.<\/span><\/p>\n

Australia’s cricketers narrowly missed out on the honour of claiming the country’s 1000th Games gold \u2013 that moment went to the netball Diamonds a little over an hour later \u2013 but win No.999 was just as sweet for the 29-year-old pace bowler.<\/span><\/p>\n

But Meg Lanning’s team can now lay claim to women’s cricket’s new ‘trifecta’, as holders of both the ODI and T20 World Cups and now, Commonwealth Games gold medallists.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It’s absolutely special,” Schutt told reporters after Australia sealed the thrilling final-over victory over a gallant India.<\/span><\/p>\n
