Alyssa Healy has overcome personal heartbreak to blast the Sydney Sixers to a landslide 74-run belting of the Adelaide Strikers and to the top of the WBBL ladder.

It was Healy's highest score, her second career WBBL ton – her first was also against Adelaide at Hurstville Oval – and the second-best individual score in the competition's history, behind teammate Ash Gardner's 114 a year ago.

"It was a hot day but I enjoyed my time out there," Healy said.
