Match Analysis

Perth Scorchers have suffered their second defeat of Weber WBBL|10, falling to Hobart Hurricanes by 72 runs at Sydney Cricket Ground this morning.

A WBBL record century from South African opener Lizelle Lee has powered the Hobart Hurricanes to a convincing win over Perth Scorchers at the SCG.

Lee blasted 12 sixes in a WBBL individual record score of 150 not out to lead the Hurricanes to 3-203 before the Scorchers were bowled out for 131 to complete the encounter.

Lee also struck 12 fours in her 75-ball 150 not out to lead the Hurricanes' third win of the season.

The 32-year-old reached her century with a six over long on and brought up her 150 off the final ball of the innings.

Her score eclipsed Grace Harris's 136 last year.

It was a big turnaround in form for Lee, who had scored just 71 in her five previous WBBL innings this season, with a top score of 38.

She dominated a third-wicket stand of 114 with captain Elyse Villani, who contributed just 14.

After scoring 23 not out, Heather Graham took 3-24 to lead the Hurricanes' bowling attack as Lauren Smith and Molly Strano took two each.
