Report: South Central Counties Cup, Sir John Paul Getty XI v Fairbreak
Read the report from the 'Sir John Paul Getty' Best of Region XI's friendly 40-over match against the touring Fairbreak Global XI at Wormsley
The Best of Region side continued their success against the touring Fairbreak Global XI with a seven-wicket win at Wormsley.
The Sir John Paul Getty XI elected to bowl first under cloudy skies in Buckinghamshire, and their decision was rewarded as Chiara Green picked up the first wicket of Yasmin Daswani, lbw for 17.
A few balls later, and spinner Charlotte Taylor picked her first wicket in her opening over of the day, pinning fellow Viper Ariana Dowse lbw for 12.
A partnership was hard to come by at first for the Fairbreak XI, with Green picking up the wicket of Mariko Hill for seven, before a pair of caught and bowleds for Bethan Miles and Finty Trussler to remove Roberta Moretti Avery and B Dodd.
Miles picked up her second when she was caught by Phoebe Wilkinson for nine, before a couple of run outs left the Fairbreak XI on 102-9.
However, a partnership of 52 rescued the touring side to a total of 165, as Bhavika Gajipra and number 11 Sonali Patel both scored 25, before the latter was caught and bowled by Lane.
In reply, the visitors struck early, as Wilkinson was lbw to Gunjan Shukla for five, but after that, it was plain sailing for the Getty XI.
Oxfordshire’s Abi Norgrove and Hampshire’s Sophie Mitchelmore fell just six runs shy of a century partnership, as both batters reached fifties before retiring out.
Isabella James raced to 25* off 27 balls, and Issy Collis moved to 9* as the home side chased the target down in the 32nd over, with seven wickets in hand.
