Northern Superchargers-Women batter Davina Perrin becomes the first batter, man or woman, to smash a century in the ongoing edition of The Hundred Competition. The 18-year-old batting prodigy achieved this historic feat during the Eliminator clash of The Hundred Women's Competition on Saturday. Perrin launched a scathing attack on the London Spirit (Women), smashing a blazing 101 (43) to power the Supercharges to a humongous 214/5. By doing so, Perrin also became the youngest ever batter to score a century in the history of the Hundred Competition. 

The youngster was responsible for giving the Supercharges a rapid start at the top of the order. Rubbing shoulders with some of the best cricketers in women's cricket, Perrin showed no signs of nerves as she punched way above her weight to terrorize the Spirit bowlers. Together with Alice Davidson-Richards, Perrin mounted a massive 101-run stand for the first wicket. While Alice played the role of a second fiddle, Perrin allowed her bat to do the talking for the most part.

In her 43-ball onslaught, Perrin accounted for an unbelievable 15 fours and five sixes. As unbelievable as it may sound, nearly 90% of her runs came in boundaries. Moreover, it is worth mentioning that there were only nine singles and one double throughout the entirety of her blazing 43-ball knock. Eva Gray and Sarah Glenn were the most affected bowlers as they went around the park for 35 (11) and 21 (8), respectively.

Curtains were eventually drawn on her innings during the 79th ball of the first innings, courtesy of a fortunate run-out attempt by Charlie Dean in her follow-through. The 18-year-old Wolverhampton-based batter received a huge round of applause from the Oval crowd as she gradually exited the field of play. Nevertheless, her electrifying ton propelled Northern Superchargers-Women to a commanding position, as their bowlers had sufficient runs on the board to play with. 

Charli Knott (40 off 16) and Georgia Redmayne (50 off 29) led a valiant effort with the bat, but a three-wicket haul from Grace Ballinger and Annabel Sutherland pegged London Spirit back and eventually restricted them to 172-9. 

Northern Superchargers Women all-round show to beat Trent Rockets Women by 8 wickets in Match 8 of The Hundred Women’s Competition 2025. They bowled well to keep the Rockets to a small total and then chased it down comfortably, thanks to a brilliant innings from young talent Davina Perrin.

The Rockets got off to a bad start when Bryony Smith (1) was run out by a sharp throw from Georgia Wareham in the first set. Grace Scrivens (5) and Natasha Wraith (5) also fell cheaply. Nat Sciver-Brunt tried to steady things with 15 from 15 balls, but when she was out at 47/4, the team was in trouble. Captain Ashleigh Gardner hit a quick 13 from 6 balls, while Heather Graham (15), Emma Jones (12), and Alana King (10) added a few runs each. But the Rockets could only reach 128/8 in their 100 balls.

Davina Perrin stole the show with a superb unbeaten 72 from just 40 balls, hitting 12 fours. Phoebe Litchfield made 22 from 10 balls, and Annabel Sutherland stayed unbeaten on 18 from 11 balls to finish the job. The only wickets to fall were Alice Davidson-Richards (11) and Litchfield. The Superchargers reached the target in 79 balls, winning with 21 balls left and showing their power with both bat and ball.
