DIVISION ONE:

 

Cresselly gain vital victory in top-three clash

 

Burton 102 for 6 (8) lost to Cresselly 120 for 6 (18) for 18 runs

 

Cresselly continued their determined quest to claim the silverware again as they made the journey to Oatfield Park and came away with a vital victory after being asked to bat first and made enough runs and kept a tight rein on the excellent Burton batting line-up to ease home by a relatively comfortable margin.
 
Cresselly’s final tally owed much to excellent batting by Lucy Johnson and Ffion Ashman alongside talented young players Ava Midgley and Mari Cole, so that although Llawella Scale, Olivia James and Finola England bowled well the rest of their attack was  unable to stop the visitors maintaining their high run-rate.
 
Finola Scale and Rhiannon Morgan were in their usual run-gathering mode for Burton before retiring and only Becca Barton stayed long of their remaining batters as Lucy Johnson and especially Lauren Davies were very accurate for Cresselly - and in the final analysis Cresselly deserved their victory!
 
Cresselly Batting: Lucy Johnson 25*, Ava Midgley 28*, Ffion Ashman 19, Mari Cole 15
Burton Bowling: Llawella Scale 2-15, Olivia James 1-24, Finola England 1-17
Burton Batting: Finola Scale 25*, Rhiannon Morgan 25*, Becca Barton 15
Cresselly Bowling: Lucy Johnson 1-21, Lauren Davies 3-16

Tish take the points at Imble Lane

 
 

Pembroke Dock 94 for 7 (6) lost to St Ishmaels 95 for 5 (17)

 
 
The match between Pembroke Dock and St Ishmaels was a close one throughout but in the final analysis it was Tish who gained the verdict as they had good performances by key players, not least by  Rachel McGuire, who claimed four wickets in as many overs.

 
 Lola Phillips and Linzi Picton also took wickets for Tish as Katie Gibbins and Polly Price were joined by Taigan Hardy in taking The Dock to a decent score with help from the ‘Extras’ Column.

 
Regular run-getters Cath Orton, Lucy Patterson and Tracey Chandra then took Tish close to their target and then extras also helped them reach their target, despite another accurate spell from teenager Poppy Price and the experienced Katie Griffiths.

 
Pembroke Dock Batting: Katie Gibbins 26*, Polly Price 25*, Extras16

St Ishmaels Bowling: Rachel McGuire 4-8, Lola Phillips 2-27, Linzi Picton 1-3

Hook bat big to beat The Town

 

Hook 147 for 5 (17) beat Haverfordwest 109 for 5 (7) by 38 runs

 


Hook were asked to bat first at home to Haverfordwest and they built a sizeable score that The Town tried hard to reach but ran out of time, but they did well to reach the three-figure mark.
 
Kate Farr returned to form for Hook alongside skipper Sam Rossiter, as did younger batters Tia Rees and Elin Miller, with Cerys Pullin and Lowis Hughes as the only Town bowlers to succeed.
 
Lyn Ward continued to be the top Town batter and again Summer Smith was on hand to help Elin Miller completed another excellent all-round performance as Tia Rees was the other Hook wicket-taker in a comfortable win.
 
Hook Batting: Kate Farr 27*, Elin Miller 28*, Sam Rossiter 27*, Tia Rees 25*
Haverfordwest Bowling: Cerys Pullin 2-17, Lowis Hughes 1-20

DIVISION TWO:

 

Llangwm take the verdict at Treleet

 

Pembroke 92 for 4 (3) lost to Llangwm 108 for 6 (12) by 16 runs

 

Llangwm were asked to bat first against Pembroke at Treleet and held a slight edge that gave them victory against a home side that were always in the hunt until the closing stages.
 
Lilly Thomas was again the pick of the Llangwm batters, ably assisted by Pam Asson, Zoe and Ellie Brick, plus quite a few extras as the Pembroke bowlers shared the wickets.
 
Jodie Lewis, Kim Barnes, Chloe Jones and Bobbie Neale all contributed to the Pembroke tally alongside 18 extras but they still fell short of a home win.
 
Llangwm Batting: Pam Asson 13, Zoe Brick 21, Lilly Thomas 27*, Ellie Brick 16, Extras 24
Pembroke Bowling: Bobbie Neale 1-14, Summer Russant 1-12, J Moseley 1-15, J Vines 1-15

Seasiders too strong for Kilgetty

 

Saundersfoot 75 for 2 (16) beat Kilgetty 73 for 6 (4) by 8 wickets

 

Saundersfoot showed something like their best farm as they won the toss at home to Kilgetty, restricted their opponents to a limited score and then reached their target for the loss of only two wickets.
 
Daisy Bland was the pick of the Kilgetty batters but accurate stuff from Nell Mackay, Talia Ennis and especially Madi Neye proved decisive.
 
Then Madi and Talia also topped the batting list for The Seasiders so that although Laila Lewis bowled really well for Kilgetty it was Saundersfoot who took only 13.4 overs to reach their target.
 
Kilgetty Batting: Daisy Bland 13
Saundersfoot Bowling: Nell Mackay; Talie Ennis  2-18, Madi Neye 2-6
Saundersfoot Batting: Talia Ennis 20, Madi Neye 19,
Kilgetty Bowling: Laila Lewis 2-15

Whitland win well against gritty Carew

 

Carew 107 for 3 (5) lost to Whitland 108 for 0 (16)  by 10 wickets

 

Carew produced on of their best batting performances of their campaign where only three wickets fell all evening, reaching over three figures as Kate Chandler-Hall again led the way and Sian Rees supported her.
 
But a wicket each for Ellie Fuller, Zoe Phillips and Sally Windsor meant that Whitland managed to halt home hopes of an even bigger score.
 
Then the ‘big guns’ of the Whitland batting line-up fired on all fronts as Lani Hogben, Angharad Jenkins and Kelly Evans all passed the retirement score and they blazed their way to a win in only 11.3 overs!
 
Carew Batting: Kate Chandler-Hall 25*, S Rees 19
Whitland Bowling: Ellie Fuller 1-12, Zoe Phillips  1-35, Sally Windsor 1-22
Whitland Batting: Lani Hogben 27*, Angharad Jenkins 25*, Kelly Evans 26*
