Bates' counterpart Charlotte Edwards, who became the

first woman cricketer to score more than 5,000 runs, said she didn't want to think about her records. "I had worked incredibly hard over the winter and not just on my skill but my fitness as well and it is really nice to reap the rewards of that, especially with two hundreds in this tournament, which I am really proud of. But it's all about me contributing to the team and us getting the third place and ending this tournament on a high," she said. "Most important thing for me is scoring hundreds for England or contributing to the win. It is something for me to look after at the end of my career, but I am obviously proud of any landmark I have got today," added Edwards, today equalled the record of eight centuries, besides equalling record to four centuries in a World Cup. Edwards said that England would take home a lot of positives from this tournament. "Anya Shrubsole has been a real stand out for us. She has led our attack brilliantly. She has got a really big future ahead of her. I think she will take in a huge amount of confidence from performing at this stage. "I think Holly Colvin has been exceptional throughout this tournament, someone we turn to in the middle overs of the game. Dani (Danielle Wyatt) has had a gap opening the batting and at times it has been quite testing for her. It is not easy up front and she is a cricketer for future, for sure," elaborated Edwards. "Most of these girls are 21 or 22 and they are still very young and they are learning the tricks of the trade and hopefully playing these world events is hopefully going to help them for their future," she said.
