The incident occurred during a match between Southern Brave and the Trent Rockets.

During a match between Southern Brave and the Trent Rockets in The Hundred Women’s, a bizarre incident occurred in which the ball touched the wickets but did not dislodge the bails as the batter got a lifeline.

The incident occurred during the 63rd ball of the Trent Rockets’ innings. Southern Brave bowler Lauren Bell delivered a slower ball aimed at the middle and leg stumps. The ball dipped as it approached Nat Sciver-Brunt, who got an inside edge that deflected off her shoe and rolled back onto the stumps, but the bails remained unmoved.

Sciver-Brunt, who was at 37 runs at the time, received a fortunate reprieve. Seizing the opportunity, the Rockets captain finished unbeaten with 60 runs from 37 balls, including eight boundaries and a six.
