Lanning made 50 off 47 balls –

Meg Lanning was not selected for Australia’s upcoming T20I and ODI series against West Indies, which starts on Sunday, with the national selectors and medical staff preferring she made her return in domestic cricket.

She delivered with a free-flowing half-century at the WACA. Following a huge slice of luck off her seventh ball of the innings, where she was caught in the gully off a no-ball from Piepa Cleary.

Lanning took full advantage thumping six fours and a six in her half-century. She got her innings going against the offspin of Lilly, thrashing her through cover and over long-off against the spin. She then unfurled cuts and pulls against AUS leg-spinner Alana King and two delightful sweeps off Amy’s offspin.
