Scorecard

Laura Wolvaardt's unbeaten 78 propelled Manchester Originals to a six-wicket win against Southern Brave, who remain winless in The Hundred women's competition.

Southern Brave set a competitive target of 136-5, thanks to Danni Wyatt's 61 off 46 balls and valuable contributions from Charli Knott (27) and Maia Bouchier (24).

Sophie Ecclestone, the standout bowler for the Originals, took 2-17, while Kim Garth and Fi Morris each claimed one wicket.

Brave managed to take three wickets for eight runs, with Georgia Adams picking up 2-24, leaving the Originals at 100-4 off 77 balls.

However, Wolvaardt remained composed and, needing 10 runs off the final set, hit Lauren Cheatle for three consecutive fours to clinch victory with two balls to spare.
