Arguably one of the finest batters in women's cricket at the moment, Laura Wolvaardt, showed her exemplary class in the ongoing The Women's Hundred match between Manchester Originals and Welsh Fire.

Wolvaardt Turns Virat Kohli With Exquisite Six

On the 13th delivery, which was bowled by Freya Davies, Wolvaardt brought her best against one of the finest pacers in women's cricket. Davies bowled a length ball outside the off and that was enough for the Manchester Originals women to free her arms and swing the ball hard.

She connected with the sweet spot of the bat and the ball went miles into the cover stands. The shot reminded fans of Virat Kohli, who, too, loves to play the inside-out shot over the covers.

At one end, her partner, Beth Mooney struggled to score runs, and it affected the scoring rate. While, on the other hand, Wolvaardt played with superb timing and her shots reminded fans of the Indian maestro, Kohli.

However, the South African superstar, couldn't continue the good work and was eventually dismissed by Jess Jonassen for 37 off 27 balls.

Her dismissal brought the downfall of others as in the space of couple of more deliveries. Originals lost two more wickets to swing the momentum in Welsh Fire's favour.
