# Cricket: England made a flying start to the Women’s T20 World Cup as Danni Wyatt-Hodge’s blistering century inspired an 87-run victory over Sri Lanka on Friday. Wyatt-Hodge, whose wife Georgie gave birth to their daughter Daisy last month, celebrated becoming a parent with a superb innings of 105 not out in just 62 balls at Edgbaston. It was only England’s fifth women’s T20 hundred, and Wyatt-Hodge has three of them. She propelled the hosts to 219 for 1, their highest-ever score in the tournament. Sri Lanka never looked like overhauling England and subsided to 132 all out in a one-sided tournament opener.
