thank you. england stars nat sciver—brunt and issy wong played key roles as the mumbai indians have won the inaugural women's premier league after a tense victory over the dehli capitals. wong made an impressive start for mumbai with three wickets in her first eight balls including her international team—mate alice capsey. hayley matthews then produced an inspired spell with the ball taking three wickets for just five runs as the captials slumped to 79-9. but 36 runs from the final two overs off wong and nat sciver—brunt saw dehli post 131. in reply, mumbai lost two early wickets but sciver—brunt, who was purchased for £320,000 by the indians, set about steadying the ship. she put on 72 runs with harmanpreet kaur

some 700 kilometres south—east of the country's capital manila. named after a native mangrove, the island became famous for its surfing scene, considered the best in the philippines. but the main draw for many is siargao's largely unspoilt natural environment. and when you are zipping around on a bike it's easy to see how stunning this place is. in 2019 siargao was voted the best island in asia, and was dubbed the next bali, with plans for further development on the horizon. in december 2021, everything changed. category 5 super typhoon odette hit the island off—guard,

with wind speeds of up to 195km/h.
