A revolution is on the horizon in women's cricket and it is called the Women's Premier League (WPL). Adding to the excitement around women바카라s cricket is the ICC Women바카라s T20 World Cup, starting on February 10.
But women바카라s cricket itself is not new. In fact, the first women바카라s World Cup (1973) was played two years before the first men바카라s World Cup. Over the years, women have displayed some great skill with bat and ball. Here are some singular moments of brilliance.
Nat Sciver-Brunt (England) 바카라 바카라Natmeg바카라 vs New Zealand, 2017 Women바카라s World Cup
The prolific batswoman has a shot named after her called 바카라Natmeg바카라. While batting against New Zealand바카라s Holly Huddleston, Sciver tapped a full-length delivery towards fine leg from between her legs, the way a footballer 바카라nutmegs바카라 a defender. When asked about the improvisation after her team바카라s 75-run victory in the match, Sciver-Brunt said, 바카라Basically, as my stance is quite wide, I get into a position where I can바카라t move my front foot again. If it is really full then all I can really do is hit it like an axe. Luckily, I hit it.바카라
Shabnim Ismail (South Africa) 바카라 Caught & Bowled vs Pakistan, 2022 Women바카라s World Cup
Few bowlers in women바카라s cricket love bowling the bouncer as much as Shabnim Ismail. And she does it with aplomb. Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma can vouch for it. Nicknamed 바카라The Demon바카라 for her raw pace and ferocity, Ismail pulled off one of the best caught and bowled dismissals ever against Pakistan at the 2022 World Cup. Keeping batter Diana Baig guessing, Ismail, on this occasion, bowled a slower delivery, which Baig tried to send over the boundary ropes, but could only manage a flick with the ball seemingly headed into a safe zone. The seamer made sure she covered the distance, and then latched on to the ball for a spectacular combination of bowling and fielding.
Laura Wolvaardt (South Africa) 바카라 Cover Drive vs Australia, 2020 Women바카라s T20 World Cup Semi-Final
The debate as to which player has the best cover drive in cricket is never-ending, especially in men바카라s cricket. Australia바카라s Megan Schutt had a definitive answer when she replied on ICC Twitter post with a picture of South Africa batter Laura Wolvaardt. And why not? Wolvaardt바카라s cover drive against Australia in the 2020 Women바카라s T20 World Cup semi-final showed intent and was executed with panache. ICC, in fact, shared the video captioning it, 바카라Is it possible to marry a cricket shot?바카라 as well as a tribute video ahead of the 2022 Women바카라s World Cup labeling Wolvaardt the 바카라queen of cover drive바카라.
Amelia Kerr (New Zealand) 바카라 Googly vs England, 2018 New Zealand Women Tour of England, 1st ODI
Every time Amelia Kerr takes the pitch, she is determined to stay one step ahead of the batter. Her bowling variations help her do just that. As soon as the ball is handed to her, it makes the batter wonder if she is a leg-spinner or 바카라googly bowler바카라, as Kerr바카라s childhood coach Ivan Tissera called her. Kerr is also known for her quick arm action, which enables her to bowl flat while managing to zip the ball in either direction. Her googly against England opener Amy Jones in a 2018 bilateral series spun so much that it not only missed the batter, but also the stumps. Lucky for Kerr, wicketkeeper Katey Martin stumped Jones.
Harmanpreet Kaur 바카라 Sweep vs Australia, 2022 Women바카라s World Cup
Harmanpreet Kaur has an array of shots in her arsenal, but it바카라s when she whips out the sweep that opponents dread what바카라s coming. Australia, especially, are well aware of Kaur바카라s sweep, a series of which she unleashed during her 171* during the 2017 World Cup semi-final. The shot can often times feel undersold when pundits and fans attach the prefix 바카라slog바카라. She disproved them by striking one of the finest sweep shots seen in cricket, this time against Alana King 바카라 perfectly dropping on to her back knee, head steady, and bat forming a full circle after connecting the ball sweetly midway.
