Just the best units of the phrases to explain the then 17-year previous who had already made a reputation for herself in English cricket by clocking 70 mph enjoying for Warwickshire. Three years and an England Test debut day later, Wong appears all of the extra promising a prospect. One who can turn into the primary girl to clock 80 mph.

Wong pitched the ball up exterior the off-stump and nipped it again in to have an effect on the off stump, at 68 mph.

In an interview final yr with inews, Wong spoke about how beginning early was key to her tempo.
“I started playing for the county at the age of 11 and I haven’t looked back since,” she stated.
“I’m pretty competitive. I would always look at the kid next to me and think, ‘I’m going to bowl faster than you’. It never occurred to me that I couldn’t because I was a girl and they were boys, that thought never entered my head.”
Wong, whose father has Cantonese ancestors and mom, a Yorkshire native, wasn’t the primary to be related to cricket within the household. Two of her great-uncles had performed for the Hong Kong males’s nationwide crew.
On the matter of bowling the quickest in ladies’s sport, Wong solutions in affirmative.
“I don’t believe in putting a ceiling on anything in any walk of life. Of course, someone can bowl over 80mph but you have to make things better 1 percent at a time – then you take a wider look and see just how far you’ve come.”
Kate Cross, who was the choose of the bowlers within the first innings with the figures of 4/63 had excessive phrases to supply for her debutant England teammate.
“Wongy steaming in and trying to knock people’s heads off at some point, she’s been doing that in the nets with us all week so it was great to see her get a chance,” she stated within the post-match presser on Tuesday.
Not within the least the final we’ll see of her in England colours, making the speedometer go gaga.
