Andrea-Mae Zepeda Owns the ECS-W Pink Lady Spotlight
Andrea-Mae Zepeda is the name at the top of the story from the ECS-W Pink Lady, 2026, after a superb tournament for Hope in the Senior Womens competition in Regensburg.
With the event now completed, Zepeda can be celebrated as the Most Valuable Player of the entire event — and the numbers make that honour feel thoroughly deserved. Across five matches played, she contributed with both bat and ball, turning in a complete campaign that brought her 427 match fantasy points.
Zepeda came into this event having played in six player events and having represented Austria, and she once again showed the kind of all-round value that can shape a tournament.
A Bowling Campaign Built on Control and Wickets
Zepeda’s biggest impact came with the ball, where she was consistently difficult to get away and regularly found a way through. She bowled in all five of Hope’s matches, sending down 62 balls and conceding just 38 runs.
That translated into a superb economy rate of 3.7, a figure that tells the story of just how tightly she controlled games. But this was not only about keeping the scoring down — Zepeda was also a genuine wicket-taking force.
She finished the event with eight wickets, striking every 7.8 balls. For a bowler to combine that level of control with that rate of wickets is exactly the kind of double impact that defines an MVP campaign.
Her best spell came for Hope against Fearless on 27 Sep 2026, when she produced outstanding figures of 4/3 from 2.1 overs. It was the headline bowling performance of her event and a perfect snapshot of her tournament: precise, dangerous and decisive.
Valuable Runs for Hope
Zepeda also played her part with the bat, appearing in four innings for Hope and scoring 50 runs from 62 balls. Her batting strike rate for the event was 80.6, while her average stood at 12.5.
Her top score came in the same Hope vs Fearless match on 27 Sep 2026, where she made 25 from 20 balls. That innings also featured her event-best Maximo return in a match, with one Maximo.
Across the tournament, Zepeda hit one Maximo in total, giving her a Maximo rate of 1.0 per 10 overs as a batter. Her scoring profile also showed that 12.0% of her runs came through fours and Maximos, underlining that her batting contribution was built more on graft and involvement than pure hitting.
The Verdict
Andrea-Mae Zepeda’s MVP case was beautifully simple: she played every match, bowled in every match, batted in four matches, and kept producing for Hope.
Eight wickets, only 38 runs conceded, a 3.7 economy rate, 50 runs with the bat, and 427 match fantasy points — that is a complete ECS-W Pink Lady, 2026 campaign.
For Hope, for Regensburg, and for the ECS-W stage, Andrea-Mae Zepeda was the player who stood tallest.
