[NYRB]

Hayley Matthews is the worlds best T20 /Hundred player right now.

 

[NYRB]

Welsh Fire finished at 137/7 against Phoenix

 

[NYRB]

Devine has to go and thats a big breakthrough for the Welsh Fire given Matthews is unlikely to bowl.

 

[NYRB]

Ismail with a hatrick and Welsh Fire steal one from the death to win by 3 runs against the Phoenix,

in the words of Huddo "I see it , but I dont believe it"

 

[NYRB]

that one will sting Birmingham for a while.

[NYRB]

With the tournament at past the half way stage tonight its a huge game between the Trent Rockets and the Welsh Fire.

A win for the rockets and they create a bit of a gap between them and 4th spot.

[NYRB]

Trent Rockets have bowled absolute garbage tonight bar Alana King.

 

[NYRB]
