Here’s what happened on Week 16!

Storm visited Romiley on Wednesday. Opening pair Karen Johnson (29* off 40, 2x4, 1x6) and Abi Giles (17* off 32) got the pair off to a great start, assisting Storm to reach 107.

The Silverbacks continued their outstanding winning run with a great victory against Didsbury! Ian Holland (4/18) and Gareth Watterson (2/18) bowled really well to restrict the visitors. Both retiring, Andy Gould (31*) and Ian Dixon (30*) had a great opening partnership with the hosts reaching 106 and subsequently winning by 10 wickets!

The 1s hosted Widnes at home, where a lot of runs were scored. Cam Kwok (72 off 65, 8x4, 2x6) and Muneeb Iftikhar (71 off 51, 6x4, 5x6) didn’t hold back as they built Sale’s total up to 299.

The 2s travelled to Bramhall. With Max Bishop (47 off 113, 6x4, 1x6) and Micahael Playle (52 off 97, 4x4) getting the side off to a decent start, it was a tough score to defend as the hosts chased it down.

Week 14 all finished!

Storm kicked us off with Brooklands away on Tuesday. Against a tough side, Storm sadly missed out by just one run. Bowling first, Ellie Wright (1/33) and Jude Parish (0/10) walked away with the best figures, but the hosts made it to 147 off their 16 overs. With the bat, skipper Lucy Dodds (33* off 19, 6x4, 1x6) and Kate Winfield (31* off 14, 3x4, 3x6) batted well but sadly it wasn’t enough. 

Looking to start the weekend on a positive, Storm were back on Friday, away at TMV. Once again bowling first, Rachael Read (2/12) and Ashley Hutton (1/6) were super economical and restricted TMV to 276. Kate Winfield (32 off 12, 5x4, 1x6) and Rebecca Broadbent (23 off 14, 5x4) dominated with the bat to ensure Storm got all 3 points! 

The 1s hosted Stockport Georgians in a thriller. Openers James Dodds (92 off 126, 11x4) and Jonny Davidson (28 off 27) batted well, setting a target for the visitors of 205. Tyrone Lawrence (2/24) and Amlyn Layton (2/38) bowled brilliant at the end to keep Georgians from reaching the target, winning by 4 runs! 

The 2s had the reverse fixture and travelled to Stockport Georgians. Bowling first, Gareth Watterson (2/18) and Callum Ross (2/74) bowled well but the hosts climbed to 228. Michael Playle (41 off 66) and Elliot Brown (34* off 34) were positive, but sadly it wasn’t enough, and Sale missed out by 67 runs. 

The 3s had a tough day in Toft. Batting first, Alex Shelton (29 off 63) and Sam Parish (16 off 34) helped Sale battle their way to 139. Brandon Moy (1/9) and skipper Brayden Ross (1/12) did what they could, but Toft batted very well.

The 4s went back to winning ways with a great victory over Bowdon at home! Opening bowlers Hana Khan (1/32) and Noah Wood (1/36) got off to a great start, ultimately restricting the visitors to 190. Asad Khan (96 off 76, 10x4, 1x6) and Tom Moakler (45 off 46) batted superbly to get the job done and take all 20 points!

A shoutout to the 5s who played their first game of the summer with a game against Stockport Georgians. 50* for Vinay Padalkar and 3/11 from Madhav Jith Ampady to seal a great 63 run victory!
