On This Week – June 28 THE DAZZLER EXTRA – ON THIS WEEK – JUNE 28 June 29 2010 Appleton remained the last unbeaten team across all competitions, having maintained this record by the tiniest of margins at home to Chester Boughton Hall. The result meant Appleton guaranteed top spot in the T20 Western Division and a home semi-final. The Tigers needed to chase down 106 without a significant contribution from Emma Barlow on this occasion, who fell second ball to Lorna Thomas. The crucial contribution came with an unbeaten 23 in 14 deliveries from Jess Lewis, which included four from the final delivery when two were required. It was the fifth occasion in that season when a three-figure total had not been sufficient to win a 20 over match. July 1 2012 Appleton took a major step towards a third successive title as they beat Chester Boughton Hall off the final ball. Emma Barlow made an unbeaten 80 in their successful chase of 153. June 30 2013 Ali Cutler took her league batting average for the season to an incredible 432 after an unbeaten knock of 81 in Chester’s win over Bolton Indians. June 29 2015 Vicki Dean reached 25 in just nine deliveries and hit three of her first four balls for six in Trafford’s Knockout Cup win over Bredbury. July 1 2015 There was an absorbing contest in this Knockout semi-final between Stockport Trinity and Wistaston Village. Fortunes ebbed and flowed, before Laura Newton saw her side home after retiring at 25, as required, and then returning in a last wicket stand with Hannah Thornhill. Newton finished 40 not out in the successful chase of 74. At the time, the only higher individual score in the competition’s history was the 79 made by Lorna Thomas in the first final in 2007, when the match was played over 40 overs with no retirements. July 1 2018 Upton took a big step towards the Division Three West title with their second narrow win over Nantwich in that season. July 1 2018 Cheshire beat Berkshire in their final match to achieve the not inconsiderable feat of staying up in T20 Division Two, where three of the nine teams were relegated. Some vital late order runs from Katie Bennett and Megan Cureton took Cheshire to a competitive total, before some fine sets of bowling figures from Sarah Worsdale and Kate Coppack completed the job. June 30 2019 Chester Boughton Hall’s reply ended at 197-2, seven runs shy of the target set by Oakmere. Ali Cutler followed up a fine bowling spell of 3-8 with an unbeaten 104 from 84 deliveries, but in doing so could only become the record holder for the league’s highest individual innings in a losing cause. Cutler’s century was outshone by that of Dawn Prestidge, whose 123 in the Oakmere innings came from 101 deliveries. The CWCL in 2020 Most of you are aware that the resumption of recreational cricket is not currently one of the events due to occur in the July 4 wave of lockdown easing. The ECB is still in negotiations with the Government and is hopeful that the go-ahead for recreational cricket will follow shortly. Owing to the continued uncertainty as to exactly when match activity might commence, the CWCL is still working towards a target start date of August 2 – if we are able to start earlier, it will be by at most a week or two. By Friday, the process of discovering which teams wish to participate in a formal competition will be complete, and the League can then consider appropriate competition formats. CWCL Leading All-Rounders Three weeks ago, this publication listed the players who have scored 1000 or more runs in league competitions since 2006, followed in the next edition by those who have taken 70 or more wickets. But who makes it into both lists? Batting Bowling Rank Rank 1 Ali Cutler (Chester) 2 7 2= Amanda Gettins (Trafford/ Ashton-on-M) 11 6 2= Sarah Sutcliffe (Brooklands/ Bowdon/ Romiley/ Ashton-on-M) 12 5 4= Leesa Mellon (Hyde/ Stalybridge/ Didsbury) 5 13 4= Annie Rashid (Appleton) 15 3 6 Hannah Jones (Hyde/ Stalybridge/ Didsbury) 13 9 7 Lorna Starkey (Thomas) (Chester) 8 15 8 Natalie Lyons (Appleton/ Oakmere) 16 8 9 Gillian Spragg (Trinity/ Poynton) 26 2 10 Nicola Capes (Chester) 22 11 11 Alison Smith (Oakmere/ Wistaston) 18 20 12 Rachel Warrenger (Hawarden/ Oakmere) 14 29 13 Kate Coppack (Chester) 24 23 14 Jane Tarpey (Oakmere) 33 18 15 Mary Priestner (Trafford/ Ashton-on-M) 31 21 16 Hannah Bratt (Wistaston/ Nantwich) 35 32 Which of those players also made it into the list of players with 30 or more fielding dismissals? This is a select group of just 12 players who really can count themselves as being members of the league’s elite.

(One famous autograph hunting episode, involving Katherine Brunt, certainly occurred at the Cheshire v Yorkshire match at Alvanley CC in 2008). Sophie is currently one of four England squad players training at Chester Boughton Hall, which was selected as one of six regional training venues ahead of the squad’s re-union for full training. .

  • The Dazzler Extra – on This Week – May 31
    THE DAZZLER EXTRA – ON THIS WEEK – MAY 31 May 29 2007 Laura MacLeod announced her international retirement after playing 13 Tests, 73 ODIs and three IT20s over the previous eight years. June 3 2010 Hyde beat Bowdon in the T20 Eastern Division with a successful chase of 111-1 in only 13 overs. Jo Hurlston, Lucy Makinson and Rebecca Griffin were the batsmen reaching 25 very rapidly. Leesa Mellon also took 3-22 in this match. May 31 2011 Was this the warning shot? Possibly the biggest upset in the history of the League’s competitions was Hyde’s Knockout Cup elimination of Chester Boughton Hall in 2012, but in the previous year’s quarter-final, Chester survived a scare from the same opposition to win by just seven runs. June 2 2013 Six years on from the international retirement announcement, Laura made her debut for League newcomers Wistaston and took three wickets for seven runs in their victory over Oxton. June 1 2014 This was a day where there were three incredibly close finishes in the division one/two cross- divisional matches, with all three eventually going in favour of the second division club. First division pacesetters Oakmere lost their 100% record, with Astley Bridge taking the final wicket with the first ball of the 40th over to win by one run. Chester missed their opportunity to make up ground on Oakmere here, going down to Wistaston on the last ball after Laura MacLeod scored 75% of her side’s runs (91 in a score of 123-9) to lead the Crewe side to victory.

Madi Hudson was the hero, leading the way with 71 at almost a run a ball, being joined by Charlotte Neal for a century partnership. Leyland lost regular wickets in reply as they struggled with their imposing target. A trip to Yorkshire to play Sessay – the club that defeated Didsbury at the same stage in 2018 and 2019 – now awaits the Vipers.

  • The Dazzler 164 Finals Day Cheshire Women's
    Ma THE Chester complete T20 double on Finals Day, seeing off Didsbury 1sts and Trinity … DAZZLER 164 Didsbury 2nds win development KO … Chester stay in contention for League title, but Appleton’s challenge ends … Wistaston wrap up division two … League Dinner tickets now on sale … Lancashire Thunder lose all three of their opening Super League games FINALS DAY Ch ester Boughton Hall hosted the triple-header Finals Day this year, and also took home the trophies in both finals that they were contesting. Many of the Chester players produced fine performances, but the star of the show was surely acting captain Kate Coppack, who reached the retirement score in both matches, and took a combined 5-15 in the eight overs she bowled during the day. Match 1 – Development Knockout Cup Final: Stockport Georgians 77-9 (20; Liv Bell 22, Zara Matthews 2-6, Ellen Gallimore 2-13, Tasneem Akram 2-17) Didsbury 2nd XI 80-3 (15.1; Laura Griffiths 27*) • Georgians may have won division three this year, but Didsbury’s seconds gained some revenge by triumphing in the knockout competition that is exclusively for teams in that division. Tasneem Akram struck twice early on, and Georgians were struggling on 11-3. Liv Bell led a recovery of sorts, but with Zara Matthews and others bowling well, the final total set the Manchester side less than four per over. Beth Garnett produced an excellent spell in the second innings, but Laura Griffiths led the way as the target was reached with almost five overs to spare. Match 2 – Senior Knockout Cup Final: Chester Boughton Hall Deemons 101-8 (20; Kate Coppack 25ret, Nadia Wheeler 21, Leesa Mellon 2-7, Millie Frost 2-8) Didsbury Swordettes 68-9 (20; Hannah Jones 34*, Kate Coppack 4-7, Dawn Prestidge 3-15, Ali Cutler 2-7) • Didsbury’s first team could not make it a double celebration for the club as an impressive display comfortably saw the Deemons to their seventh Knockout win in the 11 years the competition has been played.

  • The Stats Issue
    THE STATS ISSUE Before we get into the 2020 season statistics, some important news items: The Annual General Meeting of the Cheshire Women’s Cricket League will be held on Wednesday November 18 at 1930. Due the current health situation, this meeting will, for the first time, be conducted remotely via the Zoom platform.

The business of the meeting will include: • Reports from League Officers • Elections involving candidates wishing to stand for League Officer positions for the next 12 months. Please get in touch if you are interested in standing for: Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary, Treasurer, Press Officer, Web & Results Administrator, Fixtures Secretary, Senior Competitions Secretary, Rules & Disciplinary Secretary, Umpires & Scorers Representative, Welfare Officer • Assessment of applications from clubs wishing to join the League’s senior competitions for the first time in 2021.

  • The Dazzler Extra – on This Week – July 5
    THE DAZZLER EXTRA – ON THIS WEEK – JULY 5 July 8 2012 Hannah Gradwell broke the division two batting record and posted the second highest individual innings in league history with a score of 155 against Hyde. Her opening stand with Sarah McCann was worth 134 in 18 overs, on the way to a Stockport Trinity total of 278-8. July 7 2013 Sophie Ecclestone took 4-14, with six maidens in her ten overs, and it proved to be the best bowling return during her two years as a member of Cheshire’s senior team. Nathalie Long took 3-20 and Jenny Halstead and Helen Smith added 92 in 15 overs for the first wicket in a 102-run win over Durham. July 5 2015 Didsbury beat Stockport Trinity and took a commanding lead in division two, despite Hannah Jones being dismissed for the first time in the league in that season. July 3 2016 Sophie Ecclestone took 1-21 in a T20 international against Pakistan as she made her senior England debut, becoming the third youngest player to represent England Women. July 2 2019 Only two days after Didsbury had comprehensively beaten Stockport Trinity in a league match, Trinity won a thrilling T20 East match against the same opposition to reach the final of this competition. Carys White and Sarah McCann got the run chase off to a flyer, and Trinity were always up with the required rate as they reached 106 with two balls to spare. This was only Didsbury’s second loss of the season in all competitions, with the other being the regional final of the national T20.

    Didsbury continue to top Division 1 and effectively seal first place in T20 East … Division 2 still wide open, but Upton record vital win … Hawarden maintain unbeaten records in Division 3 West, but Division 3 East leaders Woodley slip to first defeat … Georgians seconds still dictating Division 4 … Appleton into Senior Knockout semi … Nominations sought for League XI to play MCC CHESHIRE WOMEN’S LEAGUE Division One – July 4: Appleton 111-9 (40; Emma Barlow 40, Sophie Connor 3-12, Leah Holland 2-32) (11pts) Oakmere dnb (13pts) • Unbeaten Oakmere looked on course for another victory here in a match abandoned at the halfway stage. Porthill Park 50-7 (16; Ilenia Sims 32*, Ellie Mason 4-22, Emma Royle 3-16) (12pts) Stockport Trinity dnb (12pts) • This match also failed to go the distance, but there was no suggestion here that Porthill’s fortunes were improving. Still without a win, the Potteries side saw all their batters bar Ilenia Sims sent back cheaply by Ellie Mason and Emma Royle. Didsbury v Leigh – Cancelled due to rain, 8pts each July 11: Stockport Trinity 175-4 (40; Ellie Mason 97, Jenny Dunn 56, Rosy Wilson 2-26) (7pts) Didsbury 177-4 (34.3; Roshini Prince-Navaratnam 105, Rosie Davies 25, Dunn 2-45) (25pts) • Didsbury continue to lead the way after completing what could have been a tricky run chase with relative ease. Roshini Prince-Navaratnam batted superbly before falling for 105 just before the close, having reached her fifty with only 65 on the board and then adding another 65 for the third wicket with Rosie Davies in the period when the game really turned in Didsbury’s favour.
