The Women’s Big Bash League is highly regarded as a T20 tournament and the standards of cricket live up to that reputation more often than not.
And on Saturday, a week after Tahlia McGrath’s ridiculous catch went viral, it was the turn of England all-rounder Nat Sciver to produce a moment of magic on the field.

Her international teammate Tammy Beaumont, playing for Sydney Thunder, was at the receiving end.
Stars won the match by eight wickets.
