The Australian pair of Phoebe Litchfield and Georgia Wareham have produced matchwinning performances for Northern Superchargers in English cricket’s The Hundred competitors.
The duo impressed the Superchargers’ 14-run victory over the Oval Invincibles at Headingley on Friday.
Batting prodigy Litchfield continued her superb begin in England, hitting 68 from 45 balls, as she mixed with skipper Hollie Armitage so as to add 94, which helped the Superchargers attain 4-143 for 4.
Spinner Wareham then impressed with the ball, taking 2-20 because the Invincibles might solely attain 5-129 off their 100 balls.
Cordelia Griffith supplied some resistance with a quickfire 30 off 15 deliveries, which included three fours and one six, but it surely was not sufficient for the Invincibles.
After the early double blow of dropping Jemimah Rodrigues and Marie Kelly, the Superchargers discovered their rhythm with Litchfield and Armitage commonly discovering the boundary.
Litchfield smashed a full toss from Ryana McDonald-Gay over the mid-wicket boundary for the primary six of the innings to go together with her eight fours.
Five balls later, she was dismissed as she clubbed an Eva Gray supply straight to long-off.
When the Invincibles batted, Alice Capsey was then crushed by the flip of Wareham and was stumped by Heath after fumbling the ball initially.
The Superchargers asserted their dominance as Paige Scholfield pulled a Wareham supply straight to Smith on the square-leg boundary.
