The captain of Canterbury Magicians starred with the bat in the last fixture against Auckland Hearts. The southpaw, batting at number four, muscled 56 off 46. Her innings was laced with five boundaries. She also claimed 22/2 in four overs, bowling right-arm off-spin.

Gabby Sullivan: 

The right-arm speedster of Canterbury Magicians wreaked havoc with the ball in her last appearance against Auckland Hearts. She scalped 21/4 in four overs and was the second-most economical bowler for her side. She bowled well inside the powerplay, picking up three wickets, and was effective in the death overs accounting for one scalp.
