The Hundred 2024 results: Bryce hits maiden fifty to send Welsh Fire top

Sarah Bryce hit her maiden half-century in The Hundred to pilot Welsh Fire to a six-wicket win over Trent Rockets that moved them to the top of the table in the women’s competition.

The 24-year-old keeper-batter was unbeaten on 51 off 39 balls as Fire chased down their target of 131 with two deliveries to spare.

Bryce’s smart stumping had ended Rockets’ top scorer Nat Sciver-Brunt’s knock of 37, as the home side posted a total of 130-5.

Jess Jonassen was the pick of Fire’s bowlers with 2-29, and the Australian’s 26 in a 38-run partnership with Bryce was a vital part of the run chase.

Nath Wraith, Ash Gardner and Heather Graham could not capitalise on good starts in the Rockets’ innings, and Bryce was alert enough behind the stumps to catch home skipper Sciver-Brunt out of her ground off Jonassen’s bowling.

Mistakes from several Rockets fielders helped Bryce and Georgia Elwiss, who grabbed 18 off 15 balls, to help Fire to their third win of the 2024 competition.
