Sophie Devine has turned on an incredible display with the willow, powering her way to a century against reigning champions the Sydney Thunder in Weber WBBL|07.
In an innings that took no prisoners, the powerful opening batter from New Zealand clubbed six sixes in a match winning performance.
Her powerful hitting has taken her WBBL career tally to 113 which is streets ahead of our podcast host Matt Ellis who has only managed 9 maximums in a club cricket career which began in 1989.
As you would expect, this knock caught the eye of our resident librarian and quiz show host Matt Fiction who has penned this haiku poem in her honour.

There has been significant hype on social media and we can confirm that a brand new segment will be making its debut on the Cricket Library Weekly this week.
It is understood that in between writing haiku poems and sorting through the book returns, Matt Fiction has been working around the clock to bring the segment to life.
Sources at the Cricket Library have it on good authority that ‘Fact or Fiction’ will involve guests being asked a series of true or false questions in a strict two minute time period. Contestants will be put on the spot having to select if the statement read by Matt is either Fact or Fiction.
Robbie Mackinlay is believed to have been prepping himself in case he is put on the spot and invited to be the first contestant to take on the challenge. Loyal listeners from around the world have also been expressing their interest in taking part in the segment which is set to take the podcasting world by storm.
Make sure you tune in this week to be one of the first to hear history in the making this week on the Cricket Library Podcast.
Last week on the Cricket Library Weekly, Robbie Mackinlay boldly proclaimed that former guest and friend of the Library Rachel Priest would make her mark on this season’s WBBL competition featuring in the upper echelons of the run scorers list.
His suspicions proved to be very accurate with the Hurricanes skipper plundering the Melbourne Stars on her way to a destructive 107 off just 68 balls including 10 boundaries and 7 sixes.
Resident cricket librarian Matt Fiction was particularly impressed, penning this haiku poem in her honour.
Priest pounds a hundred

Leading from the front!
