England came into the World T20 as the best women's team around. They've barely lost a T20 in a year. They have the best batsmen in the world, the best bowling attack, field very well and are lead by an experienced World Cup and World T20 winning captain. They breezed past Australia at Galle only a few days ago, scoring their last 100 runs in approximately 10 overs to win by seven wickets and 11 balls. They're the most professional women's cricket side history...

England usually look assured and confident, but they spent their innings looking anxious. Jodie Fields said that England hadn't changed her game plan from Galle, so what changed was that the English players weren't playing in a non-televised event in front of seven people; they were playing a globally televised final in front of a large crowd. The pressure of that, combined with good swing from the Australian pace bowlers and some turn from their spinners seemed to crumble this formally invincible side.

... although human beings are individually powerful, we must act together to achieve what we could not achieve on our own.

Nicholas Christakis and James Fowler (2009)

Isabel walked forward and stood before the painting. She felt as she always did when she stood in front of a great work of art; a sense of marvel that she was so close to an artefact that was once worked upon by an artist of such stature as Poussin. He did this, she mused: he thought this painting, he touched this canvas.

Alexander McCall Smith, The Uncommon Appeal of Clouds (2012)

... humans distinguish themselves by being able to learn through observing successes they have not yet had. This type of self-modeling is known as feedforward, an image of future mastery ...

Peter W. Dowrick, Weol Soon Kim-Rupnow and Thomas J. Power (2006)
