fifty

Two hundred fifty years in, the American experiment has gone horribly awry, although there is plenty of controversy surrounding the “why” of it.

Crawley set the tone, helping them race to 49 without loss by the end of the powerplay, before falling just one run short of a fifty.

Nine years on, Chathli made her first fifty in The Hundred in Spirit's win against Birmingham Phoenix earlier this month.

Meanwhile Curran has back-to-back fifties of his own having reached 50 not out in the win against Brave.

When reaching his fifty he again looked to the sky in tribute to his father who died earlier this month.
