It has to be said that so far since the beginning of this IPL season, there have been some exceptional catches in the Indian Premier League 2020, but the Women’s Big Bash League has been giving a brilliant streak of cricket in its way. One such instance came in the match between Brisbane Heat Women vs Adelaide Strikers Women. Adelaide Strikers spinner Amanda Wellington bowled a full toss to Amelia Kerr. She didn’t get a proper connection, with Maddy Penna, who was stationed at the short mid-wicket. The ball, however, slipped off her hands and ballooned up. Fortunately, for the Strikers Tahlia McGrath was at hand to go for the drop, diving full length she managed to get hold of the ball. The official Twitter handle of WBBL shared the visual labeling it as “one of the great catches” seen in the WBBL.

This catch has played a crucial role in Adeliade Strikers beating Brisbane Heat. It is pretty clear that Wellington was the pick of the bowlers for the Strikers, taking two and giving just 19 runs off her 3 overs. Captain Megan Schutt and Darcie Brown were brilliant with the ball as well. Schutt took a wicket and gave away just 26 runs off her four overs while Brown was even more miserly, going for just 17 runs off her four overs with one wicket.

Meanwhile, Katie Mack’s 37 in 50 balls, and Laura Wolvaardt’s 46 runs took Adelaide’s total to  153 at eight. On the other hand, Georgia Redmayne gave Brisbane Heat a rock start and along with Maddy Green adding 78 runs for the first wicket. Eventually, after Redmayne was dismissed after managing a good 65, the Heat suffered.

Aside from Redmayne and Green, only Grace Harris managed to attain a good score. The rest of the line gradually dropped in the match leaving Strikers get an easy win.
