Sciver, Davidson's Century Helps England Women Take A Lead Against South Africa

By IANS News June 29, 2022 • 09:35 AM View: 1508

England's Nat Sciver and Alice Davidson-Richards came up with the best-ever partnership for the sixth wicket in Women's Test cricket as the hosts took a morale-boosting 44-run lead on Day 2 of the one-off Test against South Africa at The Cooper Associates County Ground.

Sitting perilously at 121/5, England were probably one wicket away from disaster in the middle session on Tuesday, but the Proteas bowlers were unable to find a way to make the breakthrough to expose the home team's tail.
