Match Report:
Sussex and Kent met at the Middleton Cricket Club, near Bognor Regis, Sussex, on Sunday 9 August, for Round 5 of the LV Women’s County Championship. Both sides went into this game unbeaten, with 4 wins from 4 games. These games have always been competitive, with both teams fielding international players.

The weather was fine and sunny for the 50 over match. Kent won the toss, and put Sussex into bat. Kent’s opening bowlers of Lynsey Askew and Char Anneveld bowled very tightly, and were well supported in the field. Sussex lost three early wickets, and were finding it difficult to score freely.

Wickets continued to fall and Sussex were finally all out for 59, in 36.3 overs. All five of Kent’s bowlers took wickets, with the pick being Lynsey Askey with figures of 10 overs 5 maidens 3 wickets for 12 runs, and Char Anneveld who returned 10 overs 5 maidens 3 wickets for 15 runs.

Kent’s opening batsmen, Tamsin Beaumont and Natalie Lane started steadily, knowing that there was plenty of time to get the necessary runs, without taking risks. Lane was out on 16, which brought to the wicket Charlotte Edwards, the Kent and England captain. She and Beaumont took the score to 51 before Beaumont was out.

In came Lydia Greenway, also an England international. The remaining runs were scored, and Kent reached 60 for 2 wickets in 21.3 overs.

This was an important win for Kent. There are 5 games remaining in the Championship, and the next one is against Berkshire on Sunday 16 August at KCCC Beckenham, starting at 11.00am.
