  • 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.
