GIBSON AND BATES HELP THUNDER INTO WBBL FINALS

Maisy Gibson and Sam Bates have qualified for the WBBL finals, helping the Thunder to a two-run win over Brisbane last night.
Bates and Gibson finished as the not-out batsmen for the visitors, as they reached 117.
Maisy took an important catch to dismiss Haidee Birkett, before Sam claimed the vital wicket of Holly Ferling.
“Oh she’s bowled her one run short of a super over.”
The Thunder will play Perth on Thursday.
