Cheshire Women's Cricket League Results

All the weekend's Cheshire Women's Cricket League results, match reports and latest league tables are here...

Summer Series Western Division – August 30:

Porthill Park 60-9 (30; Becky Cripwell 29, Philippa Dagger 3-5, Madi Arthur 2-9, Hannah McGowan 2-10, Sophie Morris 2-11) (25pts)

Upton 51-9 (30; Charlie Scudder 12, Amy Scerri 3-12, Becky Cripwell 2-2, Lucy Shenton 2-4, Grace Potts 2-5) (5pts)

·         Porthill Park are the winners of the Western Division for 2020, sealing the honours with two matches to spare. The Potteries-based club have undoubtedly been the best team, but once again didn’t have everything their own way as they wrapped up the title. However, despite posting a target of just two runs per over, Porthill’s bowlers took early wickets and never relinquished their grip. Amongst some impressive bowling figures Philippa Dagger’s outstanding season for Upton continued; and Becky Cripwell conceded just two runs in her six overs, having also held the Porthill innings together earlier, and she is a strong contender for the league’s best all-rounder of the season.

Chester Boughton Hall 79-7 (20; Ali Cutler 45, Molly Price 3-8, Alexa Harrison 3-14) (25pts)

Oxton 32 (18.3; Freya Davies 12, Gemma Rose 3-4, Tilly Buss 2-0, Nandu Valliyil 2-7) (4pts)

·         Ali Cutler’s innings stood out on a day when no other batsman passed 12. Molly Price and Alexa Harrison recorded impressive bowling returns for Oxton, but some even more impressive analyses from Gemma Rose and Tilly Buss helped to get Chester back to winning ways.

August 31:

Nantwich 141-2 (30; Madi Hudson 52, Morganne Prince 50*) (25pts)

Oxton 11 (12; Bethan Robinson 4-1, Hannah Bratt 3-0, Grace Michel 2-1) (1pt)

·         A dramatic reversal of the result from a few weeks previously as half-centuries from Madi Hudson and Morganne Prince set Oxton a formidable target. Oxton folded in reply to some fine bowling from Bethan Robinson, who conceded just one run in four overs in addition to her four wickets; and Hannah Bratt, who followed up two maiden overs with a triple-wicket maiden. Robinson’s spell is the best bowling analysis to date in any division this year.

Summer Series Eastern Division – August 30:

Didsbury 86-9 (30; Roshini Prince-Navaratnam 48*, Ellie Mason 2-5, Kate Harvey 2-19) (25pts)

Stockport Trinity 83-7 (30; Sarah McCann 21, Rosie Wilson 2-11) (7pts)

·         The top of the table clash produced a match that was every bit as close as one might have expected, but it was Didsbury who edged this nailbiter and ended Stockport Trinity’s 100 per cent record. Roshini Prince-Navaratnam was the glue that held the Didsbury innings together and her score was more than double the next highest score on either side, indeed in her superb personal season she has scored more than twice as many runs as any other batsman in the Eastern Division, Trinity’s star names included. Assuming the weather doesn’t intervene though, the title race remains in Trinity’s hands as well as Didsbury’s – if Trinity beat Stockport Georgians next Sunday then it will set up a winner takes all final match when Trinity and Didsbury meet again on September 13.

Leigh 104-8 (30; Poppy Donohue 20*, Amanda Gettins 3-12) (25pts)

Ashton-on-Mersey 94-4 (30; Beth Caunce 43, Gaby Crabb 2-13) (7pts)

·         Leigh recorded their first win since the opening day, edging out Ashton despite losing regular wickets throughout their own batting innings.
