Gardner’s Maiden ODI Ton Helps Australia Get Closer To Retaining Women’s Ashes With 86-run Win
With Annabel Sutherland: Ashleigh Gardner slammed her first ODI century for Australia as the hosts defeated England by 86 runs to complete a clean sweep of the ODI leg of the Women’s Ashes and get closer to retaining the trophy.
Australia were in trouble at 59/4, before Ashleigh turned the tide by hitting a run-a-ball 102, her first-ever century in international cricket. She was well-supported by Beth Mooney (50), Tahlia McGrath (55) and Georgia Wareham (38 off 12 balls), as Australia posted 308/8.
Ashleigh followed up the brilliant batting performance with a stunning catch in the field - taking a one-handed catch above her head before lobbing the ball in the air and completing the catch while diving to dismiss Sophie Ecclestone.
