WATCH: Everyone Shocked as Indian star Deepti Sharma Hits Match Winning runs in The Hundred
Indian all-rounder Deepti Sharma played the role of a pivot with both her batting and bowling skills as she helped London Spirits beat Welsh Fire by four wickets and lift their maiden Women’s The Hundred title. Deepti had a wicket while giving away 23 runs, and then smashed a ball-to-ball 16, which also included the match winning six off the ball by Hayley Matthews. Two years ago, Deepti controversially dismissed Dean with a run-out at the non-striker’s end during the 3rd ODI against England in 2022, which acted as a trigger towards her spirit for the game.
It was a moment of satisfaction for Deepti and was the loss of hope for Dean that day, but here the two worked on the same side, working their way for the maiden victory as they chased a target of 116 in 98 balls.
Apart from Deepti, Eva Gray and Sarah Glenn bagged two wickets each. Tara Norris also gave her share with a wicket. Because of the team’s fierce display with the ball, Welsh Fire could only go up to 115 for 8 in 100 balls.
