A brilliant hattrick from young star Caoimhe Bray helped the Sydney Sixers Women secure a convincing 24-run win over the Sydney Thunder Women in Match 11 of at Drummoyne Oval.

Sophia Dunkley and Alyssa Healy lead Sixers’ batting effort

Put in to bat first after the Thunder won the toss, the Sixers posted a steady total despite losing wickets at regular intervals.

Sophia Dunkley played the anchor role with a composed 43 off 35 balls, striking six boundaries and maintaining the momentum. She found strong support from Alyssa Healy, who smashed 26 off just 15 balls at a blistering strike rate of 173.33. Their 60-run partnership gave the Sixers a solid platform at 76/2.

However, the middle order faltered under tight bowling pressure. Captain Ashleigh Gardner fell for 10, while Erin Burns (6) and Maitlan Brown (8) could not convert their starts.

A late surge from Mady Villiers, who remained unbeaten on 24 off 19, helped – a total that later proved more than defendable.

Shabnim Ismail (3/27) was the pick of the Thunder bowlers, while Georgia Voll and Samantha Bates took two wickets each.

Thunder ealter early in the chase

Lauren Cheatle removed Georgia Voll for 1, and Maitlan Brown delivered a double blow by dismissing Tahlia Wilson (7) and Heather Knight (6). With the score at 19/3, the Thunder were under immense pressure.

Captain Phoebe Litchfield attempted to rebuild but managed only 8 before falling to Bray.
