Mercurial right-hander bats-woman Deandra Dottin belted an astonishing century as the West Indies (Windies) cricket team trounced Sri Lanka Women by 31 runs to sweep the three-match Twenty20 International series in Antigua Sunday night.
Playing at Coolidge Cricket Ground, the 26-year-old Dottin carved out 112 off 67 deliveries as the hosts chalked up 159 for six off their 20 overs, after choosing to bat first.
Dottin, of Barbados, smashed nine fours and five sixes on the way to becoming the first women player to score two T20 hundreds in a career, following her maiden one seven years ago during the T20 World Cup in the Caribbean.
The Barbadian’s hundred was also her second of the year, coming on the heels of her unbeaten 104 against Pakistan in the Women’s 50-overs World Cup in England last July.
Dottin, who was voted Player-of-the-Match, got support from Hayley Matthews who chipped in with 34 runs from 40 balls at the top of the order.
In their reply, the Sri Lanka Women were held to 128 for five off their 20 overs despite half-centuries from wicketkeeper Rebeca Vandort (50) and Shahikala Siriwardene (50).
Matthews returned later with her off-spin to claim four wickets for 18 runs from her four overs.
The win ensured the Windies swept the entire series after their 3-0 whitewash in the ICC Women’s Championship ODIs in Trinidad a fortnight ago.
