The Northern Superchargers are up against the Trent Rockets in the fourth match of the Women's Hundred 2024. The match is taking place at the Headingley In Leeds.

The Trent Rockets batted first in the game and posted 123/5 on the board at the end of their 100 balls. The Northern Superchargers needed to bat steadily to chase down the target. 

However, the Rockets fumbled from the beginning of the innings. They kept losing wickets and the innings never got going.  Within the first five sets of the innings, the Rockets lost three wickets for 32 runs. 


Alana King with 'The Ball of the Hundred'

The next set was given to the Australian spinner, Alana King. The Aussie leg-spinner immediately joined the party with a delivery that a leg spinner can only dream of. On her second delivery King bowled a full length delivery at the middle stump line. The batter, Bess Heath tried to defend the ball of the front foot. However, the ball turned past the outside edge of the bat and disturbed the furniture behind the batter. 

The delivery reminded everyone of the legendary - Shane Warne. He bowled a legendary delivery which was his first in the Ashes to Mike Gatting. It was the year 1993 and the game was being played at Manchester. On the second day of the Test match, Warne bowled a magical delivery that left Gatting dumbfounded. 

The delivery by Alana King to Heath reminded everyone of 'the Ball of the 20th century'.
