[10] Typhoons bowler Celeste Raack was the leading wicket-taker in the tournament, with 12 victims, with fellow players Orla Prendergast, Rebecca Stokell and captain Laura Delany also putting in strong performances to help their side to the title. [11] [12] The 2021 tournament again included just two sides, with Scorchers and Typhoons now playing for separate 50 over and T20 titles. [13] In June, the Super 50 Cup ended with Typhoons winning just one match, losing the title to Scorchers. [14] In August, they also lost in the T20 Trophy, winning one match out of six. [15] In 2022, the side finished second in the Super 50 Cup and third in the Super 20 Trophy. [16] [17] Typhoons overseas player Robyn Searle, in the final match of the Super 50 Cup, scored the highest score in Super Series history, making 143*.
