Consensus Summary

Georgia Voll became the third fastest Australian woman to score a T20 international century when she smashed 101 off 52 balls against West Indies in St Vincent, helping Australia sweep the series 3-0. Her aggressive innings—featuring six sixes and fearless slog sweeps—set up a dominant total of 211, while rain shortened West Indies’ chase to 61-3, resulting in a 40-run DLS victory. Voll’s performance marked her first T20 century and solidified her role as a key player following Alyssa Healy’s retirement, with officials noting her fearless approach. The series concluded before Australia’s upcoming ODI series against West Indies in St Kitts and preparations for the World Cup in England.
