- England 302-5; Pakistan 124; England win by 178 runs
- Sciver-Brunt hits 124 before taking two wickets
Rishi Sunak and the Conservatives have been keen to stress that national service can come in all shapes and sizes. Could it perhaps include scoring runs for your country? If so, then Nat Sciver-Brunt has surely already completed hers, and then some.
At Chelmsford against Pakistan on Wednesday, the 31-year-old became the fastest Englishwoman to achieve the milestone of 3,500 runs in ODIs: it has taken her 94 innings. Shortly afterwards, she brought up her ninth ODI hundred in perhaps the most audacious way possible, with back-to-back ramps, as England concluded their ODI series against Pakistan with a 178-run win – their most convincing performance of the series.
