Sonny Baker gave a dream performance in hundreds and on Sunday took the sensational hatchester originals for commanding 57 victories over the northern superchargers.
The 21 -year -old fast pitch, fresh from his call from England, became only the fourth pitch in a hundred hundred men to achieve this performance, joined Sam Curran, Imran Tahira and Tymal Mills.
Baker’s magic arrived in his third set of vans at death. He first removed the experienced Dawid Malan before Tom Lawes and Jacob Duffy with subsequent balls fell. Superchargers, which were already in their persecution, were Skittled in just 114. Baker ended with excellent characters 3 to 21, limiting the dominant trip for the originals.

Previously, Captain Jos Buttler anchored shifts by a smooth 64 out of 45 balls, while Heinrich Klaasen broke the insurmountable 50 and raised the team to 171 for three – a total that turned out to be out of reach as soon as Baker’s fiery charm closed the competition.
Sonny Baker earns an English call
Sonny Baker limited a remarkable rise with his first call in England, named in the squad for the upcoming ODI series against South Africa and the T20i series against Ireland.
At only 22 years, a fast pitch born in Exeter gained the reputation of a raw pace-in order to turn over 90 mH-s a rare ability to turn the ball at high speed.
His permanent climb through Somerset, England under 19 years and England Lions have now brought him a final reward. Baker’s selection comes on the back of engaging performances in the home cricket of the white ball.
In the explosion of Vitality 2025, he raised eight goals in seven matches on average 27.25, with the best numbers 3/28. His sensational hattrick in hundreds strengthened only the case for his inclusion.
Although the T20i debuted, the total record T20 T20 is already impressive: 22 goals in 19 games on average 24.81, including the best 4/20 numbers.
