Women’s T20 WC: Ecclestone, Sciver-Brunt Help England Beat South Africa By Seven Wickets
T20 World Cup: An economical spell of 2-15 from Sophie Ecclestone and an unbeaten 48 by Nat Sciver-Brunt helped England beat South Africa by seven wickets to go on top of Group 'B' of the 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Monday. Led by Sophie, England’s four-pronged spin-bowling attack enabled the 2009 champions to halt South Africa’s fast start and restrict them to 124/6. In reply, Danni Wyatt-Hodge's 43 and Nat’s unbeaten 48 helped England complete the chase with four balls to spare.
While Danni held her own in the Power-play, Nat found the boundary fence regularly to ensure England never lost sight of the chase. They were also helped by Alice Capsey’s cameo of 19 off 16 balls, especially with her batting approach against spinners being positive.
Electing to bat first, South Africa, who knocked out England in the semifinals of the 2023 T20 World Cup, skipper Laura Wolvaardt starred with an outstanding 42 off 39 balls and took on England’s spinners from the word go. Though Tazmin Brits fell in the Power-play, England managed to pull back in the middle overs despite dropping some chances.
