Summer Series Western Division – September 6:

Chester Boughton Hall 52 (26.3; Nicole Fisher 22, Ellie-Mae Davies 4-8, Lucy Shenton 2-5) (4pts)
Porthill Park 53-7 (25.5; Olivia Chorlton 15, Ali Cutler 4-6)

• Batting second for the first time this year, divisional winners Porthill were given another scare by Chester’s bowlers, and by Ali Cutler in particular, who claimed four wickets for six runs in her six over spell. However, Porthill’s bowlers have been in stupendous form all season, and after Cutler and Nicole Fisher had added 32 for Chester’s first wicket, Porthill’s attack dominated, with Ellie-Mae Davies bagging a hat-trick in the middle order.

Nantwich 111-4 (30; Grace Michel 34, Beth Hughes 32, Hannah McGowan 3-26) (25pts)
Upton 66 (29.2; Lily Scudder 17, Abbie Adams 3-3, Bethan Robinson 3-10, Hughes 2-1) (3pts)

• A decisive win for Nantwich, and as Upton became the first team in the division to complete their fixture list, Nantwich are now poised to knock Upton out of the runners-up spot next week.

Stockport Georgians 80-6 (22; Natalie Bell 22) (8pts)
(Restricted to 22 overs per side due to rain)

• For the second time this season, Trinity beat their near neighbours by a small margin, and just as in the earlier encounter, their win owed a great deal to Ellie Mason. This now sets up the Eastern Division decider this Sunday (September 13) when Trinity host Didsbury.

• Lindow completed an unbeaten season as winners of the Development Division, compiling a formidable total with Claire Ashworth’s 46 in as many deliveries leading the way. Ashworth was not finished there and contributed a fine spell with the ball to seal the victory.
