Making her KIA Super League debut for Lancashire Thunder, Indian T20 captain Harmanpreet Kaur smashed a four and a six with her team needing 8 runs from three balls at the Kennington Oval, London on Tuesday.
Chasing 149 to win against the Surrey Stars, the Thunder won by five wickets and a ball to spare.
A couple of days after Indian vice-captain smashed the fastest half century in the Super League (and the joint-fastest T20 fifty of all time), Kaur made her mark in the league in memorable fashion.
With 11 needed from the final over, Kaur took a single off the first ball. The next ball saw Thunder lose a wicket, but Kaur was back on strike. With 10 needed off four balls, Kaur hit a two, followed by a four and then finished with a massive six over midwicket.
WHAT A WAY TO WIN!

Harmanpreet basically sacrificed Elllie Threlkeld to get back on strike... she really HAD to win the game after doing that... and she did - that's what you pay your overseas to do!
