Sharmin Akhter 30(52)

15.3

Ecclestone to Sharmin Akhter, out Caught by Amy Jones!! Wicket right after drinks. How many times have we seen that? Ecclestone strikes and it is the set batter - Akhter - who departs. Once again Ecclestone gets it to climb sharply, Akhter goes back and tries her best to keep it out, but she gets a thin outside edge and Amy Jones hangs onto a good catch behind the stumps. Replays show that Akhter pushed at the ball, went chasing with hard hands trying to punch it into the off-side and hence nicked it. Sharmin Akhter c Amy Jones b Ecclestone 30(52) [4s-6]
