Bears Women first game ends in incredible TIE | HIGHLIGHTS | Metro Bank One Day Cup

Women’s county cricket started in scintillating style in Birmingham as Warwickshire and Hampshire tied an absolute thriller in their Metro Bank One-Day Cup women’s competition opener at Edgbaston. On a pitch which never yielded runs easily, Hampshire chose to bat and were bowled out for 208 in 48.3 overs, as only Rhianna Southby (72 from 95 balls - her maiden 50-over half-century) and Abi Norgrove (28, 46) passed 20. Chloe Brewer took three for 40 and there were two wickets apiece for Emily Arlott and Georgia Davis. Warwickshire then were also all out for 208, their last wicket falling from the final ball of the 50th over. Abi Freeborn’s composed 70 (96 balls) put them on top but Linsey Smith, four for 39, cut through the lower middle order to leave Warwickshire’s last two wickets needing to find 44. In fading light, Charis Pavely, Georgia Davis and Hannah Baker did brilliantly to find 43 before skipper Davis was run out off the last ball.
