Perry breaks the chase open
Ellyse Perry took control just as the chase threatened to bog down, and Birmingham Phoenix W rode her 63 off 39 to beat MI London W by five wickets with six balls remaining. With the asking rate hovering and MI London W’s spinners tightening, Perry’s clean hitting and sharp running shifted the mood, and Phoenix stayed composed even after a couple of early dents.
Middle-overs squeeze undone
The game swung in the middle phase of the chase. Phoenix were 35/2 in the powerplay, then Perry and Fatima Sana stitched a decisive 66-run partnership that turned a tense pursuit into a manageable finish. MI London W had done the hard part by dragging Phoenix to 68/4 across the middle overs, but once that stand settled, the required rate stopped climbing and the last 20 balls became a matter of keeping wickets in hand rather than chasing boundaries.
Perry, Sana and Gordon stand out
Perry’s innings was the difference: she attacked the loose balls, rotated strike to blunt the squeeze, and kept Phoenix ahead of the rate. Sana’s 36 off 32 was the perfect foil, absorbing pressure early before cashing in once the field spread. For MI London W, Kirstie Gordon’s 2 for 20 kept the contest alive through the middle, but Henry’s effort with the bat needed a stronger platform around it.
Pre-match edges don’t cash in
MI London W came in with the head-to-head momentum and the numbers pointing their way, but this match was decided by execution in the key moments. Their 120/6 was built on Chinelle Henry’s 42 and a 56-run stand with Hollie Armitage, yet the powerplay crawl (24/1) left them without enough cushion when Phoenix found one big innings. In a short chase, one batter batting deep can erase form lines and pre-game projections quickly.
