Sunrisers top the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy table after defeating Central Sparks by five wickets at Kidderminster.
The England A international struck 118 not out from 123 balls – the highest individual score of the tournament so far – to secure Sunrisers’ third victory in four games.
That enabled Sparks to post a total of 213, but Scrivens’ stand of 110 with Cordelia Griffith made a significant dent in the target and Amara Carr helped her captain to clinch the win with 10.2 overs to spare.Thunder finished on 206-9, built around Seren Smale’s knock of 99 – the teenager narrowly missing out on her maiden hundred after sharing a partnership of 94 with Katie Mack , while Vipers’ left-arm spinner Linsey Smith took 3-19.
They were pegged back to 105-6 by Katie Levick’s miserly spell of 1-13 and Erin Burns’ 3-40, but Bethan Gammon and Ella Claridge added 61 and, needing five from the final over, Lucy Higham scrambled home with two balls to spare.’ 100 per cent record in the tournament.
