Southern Brave thrashed Oval Invincibles by 89 runs, the biggest margin in terms of runs in the history of The Hundred’s women’s competition, to move clear at the top of table.<\/p>\n

Their fifth win from five matches broke a record that was only set on Sunday, when London Spirit beat Birmingham Phoenix by 88 runs.<\/a><\/p>\n

Brave’s formidable top-order of Maia Bouchier (34), Danni Wyatt-Hodge (26) and Laura Wolvaardt (36) propelled them to a strong 161-6, while Mady Villiers took 3-17 as the visiting side were bowled out for 72.<\/p>\n

Invincibles, who chose to chase at the toss, struggled in pursuit of their target, losing openers Lauren Winfield-Hill and Meg Lanning in the space of three Sophie Devine balls inside the powerplay. <\/p>\n

Bell then removed her international team-mates Alice Capsey and Paige Scholfield with successive deliveries, before Villiers accounted for Marizanne Kapp and Phoebe Franklin to leave Invincibles 43-6.<\/p>\n

Amanda-Jade Wellington offered some element of resistance, scoring an unbeaten run-a-ball 18, but no other Invincibles batter passed 10.<\/p>\n

Debutant Daisy Gibb was the last batter to fall, caught by Villiers off Georgia Adams, bringing Invincibles’ dismal effort to an end with 17 balls to spare.<\/p>\n

Brave now sit top of standings outright with 20 points, having previously been behind London Spirit on net run-rate, while Invincibles remain in fifth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Southern Brave thrashed Oval Invincibles by 89 runs, the biggest margin in terms of runs in the history…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":76150,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[1721,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-76149","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-cricket","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76149","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76149"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76149\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/76150"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76149"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76149"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76149"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
