Annabel Sutherland delivered a stellar all-round performance to propel the Northern Superchargers to their first victory in this season’s The Hundred, defeating the Oval Invincibles by a massive 82 runs at the Kia Oval.

Annabel Sutherland’s magic against Oval Invincibles

The powerful Australian all-rounder made her mark with both bat and ball, showcasing her versatility and dominance. Sutherland’s brilliant innings of 63 from 40 balls laid the foundation for the Superchargers’ imposing total of 146 for 4. Her aggressive yet calculated batting helped her team set a challenging target, leaving the Oval Invincibles with a steep chase.

However, it was with the ball that Sutherland truly shone. She delivered a match-winning spell, taking four wickets for just 11 runs, all clean-bowled, in a display of exceptional control and precision. Her wickets came in a dramatic fashion, with the last six balls of the match-defining her impact.

On the first ball of the 13th set, Sutherland clean-bowled Amanda-Jade Wellington, effectively ending the Invincibles’ hopes of a comeback. She followed up immediately by dismissing Ryana MacDonald-Gay with the next delivery, narrowly missing out on a hat-trick as Sophia Smale survived the third ball. Nevertheless, Smale was dismissed a ball later, further solidifying Sutherland’s grip on the game. She wrapped up the innings by cleaning up Rachel Slater with the first ball of the 14th set, sealing a comprehensive victory for the Superchargers.
