Sunrisers Snatch Thrilling Victory Over Vipers in Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy

Sunrisers' Flo Miller played a pivotal role in securing a thrilling three-wicket victory over defending champions Southern Vipers in the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy. Miller's unbeaten 47 from 59 balls proved crucial as Sunrisers chased down a challenging target of 212 at Radlett.

Vipers, led by Georgia Elwiss' 53, posted a competitive total of 211 for 9. However, Sunrisers' bowlers, particularly Nic Hancock (3-45), kept the visitors in check throughout the innings.

In response, Sunrisers faced an early setback, losing two wickets to run-outs. But Jodi Grewcock (56) and Amara Carr (42) steadied the ship with a 78-run partnership.

Charli Knott's off-spin proved effective, dismissing Carr and Mady Villiers to leave Sunrisers in a precarious position at 138 for 6. However, Miller and Jo Gardner (20) combined for a crucial 60-run stand, bringing the target within reach.

Despite Gardner's dismissal, Miller remained composed, hitting the winning run with three balls to spare. Her innings included a crucial boundary off Mary Taylor and a four from Hancock.

Sunrisers' victory propelled them back to the top of the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy table, while Vipers suffered their first defeat of the season.
