Akila Dananjaya led an ultimately fruitless fight back for Sri Lanka with figures of 4-47 against Zimbabwe.

On a day when that ol' *modded* rain ruined every match in England I've gone for Deandra Dottin who made hay while the sun shone for her 104* against Pakistan Women to remind everyone that West Indies Women are not a spent force.

A truly innovative innings from England's Natalie Sciver saw her bag 129 runs to beat New Zealand.

Her second nod for this accolade.

Despite the fact Gareth Batty was on fire Surrey still lost to Middlesex. The veteran got 4-14.
