South African opener Lizelle Lee has blasted 12 sixes in a WBBL individual record score of 150 not out for the Hobart Hurricanes against Perth Scorchers at the SCG.
Lee thrashed 12 fours and 12 sixes in her 75-ball 150 not out, as her Hobart Hurricanes side amassed at total of 3-203 when batting first on Sunday.
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.
“I have to give credit to everybody in our team that kept on believing in me and when I was doubting myself and crying and couldn’t stop they were there and also my family supported me so much,” Lee told Seven.
She dominated a third-wicket stand of 114 with captain Elyse Villani, who contributed just 14.
“Elyse batted a fair bit with me and she just kept telling me to stay calm and follow my process and that’s what I did,” Lee said.
