Katherine Brunt was in fantastic form as England cruised past Pakistan in their league stage fixture of the ongoing ICC Women's Cricket World Cup, at Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Thursday. The pacer took three wickets in eight overs, conceding only 17 runs and also registering two maiden overs. Her dismissals accounted for openers Nahida Khan, Sidra Ameen and Nida Dar. In a talismanic performance, Brunt's wicket of Ameen summed up her form as the batter inside edged it to smash the middle stump out of the ground. The incident occured in the 25th over when Brunt sent a spectacular length delivery which forced Ameen on the front foot and then it seamed back in for the inside edge, hitting the middle stump. The wicket proved to be a crucial one as Ameen was also her side's top-scorer with a knock of 32 runs off 77 deliveries. Such was the brilliance of the delivery that the commentator stated, "That is an absolute jaffa".
