WBBL 08: Perth Scorchers Women vs Sydney Sixers Women Match Highlights

Alyssa Healy and Skipper Ellyse Perry guided Sixers to a comfortable victory against Perth Scorchers by 6 wickets

SS-W vs PS-W Match Highlights: Healy smashed an unbeaten 107 off 64 balls to lead her team to a six-wicket triumph after another Beth Mooney (75 runs off 51) and Marizanne Kapp (68 off 37) spectacularly drove the Scorchers to 4-176.

The Sydney Sixers defeat the Perth Scorchers in a nail-biting final-ball triumph in Melbourne thanks to Alyssa Healy’s fifth WBBL century.

PS-W vs SS-W Sydney Sixers Partnership

With a single, Healy set up a 61-ball century, and when Perry holed out to finish their 154-run partnership, Ashleigh Gardner was summoned to the crease with 19 needed off 10 balls. In Devine’s outstanding penultimate over, which only yielded five runs, Healy was dropped on the rope by Alana King, and Taneale Peschel had another opportunity to catch her, but she missed it by a whisker.

Healy scored 107 runs, remaining unbeaten, with four sixes and 12 fours in his innings.

PS-W vs SS-W Perth Batsman

Mooney reached her fifty in just 35 deliveries, and Kapp quickly followed suit, hitting a huge six down the ground to get her own fifty in just 25 deliveries.

Kapp was caught at short fine for 68 off 37, breaking a 97-run partnership, as the Sixers looked for answers. This time, it was the in-form Gardner who had the answer. She had made 68 no of 34 against the Renegades the day before.

PS-W vs SS-W Final Overs

Ashleigh Gardner came in as an emergency hitter with 15 runs required off the last over, and she slammed back-to-back sixes. However, there was another twist in the tale when she was bowled and Erin Burns holed out the following delivery, leaving the Sixers requiring two off two. With a single from Nicole Bolton and a four over cover from Healy, the Sixers extended their advantage at the top of the WBBL standings.

WBBL 08: Beth Mooney’s Record

On her way to an unbeaten 75 that included nine fours and two sixes, Mooney scored 400 runs for the season, keeping her pristine record of achieving that milestone in each of the WBBL’s eight iterations.
