Southern Brave’s Dominant Win in The Hundred
The Hundred competition in England has grown in popularity over the past few years. The fast format is played by legendary T20 cricketers from all over the world. Also, sports fans are getting the pleasure of watching stormy batting in lowballs. Not to mention if Kieron Pollard gets a chance to bat. Kieron Pollard’s Southern Braves scored 139 runs off 100 balls and challenged 140 runs for victory. But the Welsh Fire team could only score 97 runs.
Southern Brae won this match by 42 runs. Kieron Pollard scored 17 runs off 12 balls in this match. He hit two sixes in this. Hit a six that is now the talk of social media. Kieron Pollard was batting while Kumar Sangakkara was doing the commentary. At the same time, Kieron Pollard hit the ball towards him. But Kumar Sangakkara, who was speaking to comment, did not understand and suddenly had to get up from his seat. As luck would have it, the ball did not reach there.
