Edgbaston ke maidan par aaj Warwickshire Bears ne aisi dahaad maari ki Surrey ki team charo khane chit ho gayi. Women's Vitality Blast ke is muqable mein Bears ne na sirf batting mein aggresion dikhaya balki bowling mein bhi Surrey ki kamar tod di. Yeh is season ki Warwickshire ki pehli win hai aur jeetne ka tareeka bilkul Dominance wala tha.
So The Story is:
Toss jeet kar pehle batting karne utri Warwickshire ki team ne shuruat se hi clear kar diya tha ki unka mood aaj sirf attack karne ka hai. Openers Abigail Freeborn aur Davina Perrin ne milkar Surrey ke bowling unit ki dhajjiya uda di. In dono ke beech 88 runs ki opening partnership hui wo bhi sirf 10.2 overs mein. Abigail Freeborn ne toh aate hi tabahi macha di aur sirf 14 balls mein 37 runs koot diye. Unhone apni fifty 28 balls mein poori ki jo ki ek Masterclass innings thi.
Doosri taraf Davina Perrin jo 6 week ki injury ke baad wapsi kar rahi thin unhone bhi koi kasar nahi chhodi. Unhone 38 balls mein classy fifty lagayi. Halaanki Surrey ne fielding mein bahut galti ki aur 3 bade catches drop kiye jiska fayda Bears ne jamkar uthaya. Madhya kram mein wickets gire lekin Mary Taylor ki 23 runs ki kamo ne score ko 172 tak pahunchaya jo ki ek winning total sabit hua.
Jab Surrey chase karne utri toh unki shuruat achhi thi. Bryony Smith aur Alice Davidson-Richards ne 48 runs jod liye the lekin jaise hi Hannah Baker ne Smith ko bowl kiya uske baad Surrey ki team taash ke patton ki tarah bikhar gayi. 53/0 se poori team 130 par all out ho gayi. Mary Taylor aur Hannah Baker ne 3-3 wickets lekar Surrey ka boriya bistar gol kar diya.
Analysis & Numbers
- Abigail Freeborn ne 33 balls mein 51 runs banaye jisme unka strike rate behad Gamechanger sabit hua.
- Davina Perrin ne comeback match mein 50 runs banakar apni form ka loha manwaya.
- Warwickshire ke bowlers ne middle overs mein control banaya aur Surrey ne apne aakhri 10 wickets sirf 82 runs ke andar kho diye.
- Mary Taylor (3-24) aur Hannah Baker (3-35) ne bowling mein Surrey ko bilkul mauka nahi diya.
The Guru Gyan Verdict:
Surrey ki fielding unke liye sabse bada gunah sabit hui. Agar aap T20 mein itne mauke chhodenge toh result aisa hi hoga. Warwickshire ne dikhaya hai ki aggressive mindset kya hota hai. Freeborn aur Perrin ki opening stand ne game wahi khatam kar diya tha. Surrey ka collapse unki batting depth par bade sawal khade karta hai. Bears are back in business!
