Berkshire Women vs Sussex Women

Berkshire Women vs Sussex Women: Match Report

Sussex Women cruised to a comfortable five-wicket victory over Berkshire Women in their first T20 match of the season. Sussex's second match of the day against Bucks Women was abandoned due to rain after just seven overs. 

Sussex skipper Chiara Green won the toss and elected to put Berkshire into bat and she could have no complaints about the way in which the bowling attack went about their business.

It was a dominant display of bowling from the visitors which resulted in only one of the Berkshire batters making it into double figures.

Regina Suddahazai Khan was the pick of the Sussex bowlers, with her two wickets from three overs only conceded six runs. 

The rest of the wickets were shared around the attack, with Daisy Gibb, Millie Taylor, Beth Harvey and Chiara Green all making vital contributions to restrict Berkshire to just 60-9 from their 20 overs. 

Although Sussex managed to reach their target in 14.5 overs, it wasn't all plain sailing. Sussex lost 5 wickets but in the end comfortably completed the task at hand. 

Opener Izzy Collis (21) top scored with the bat and had valuable support from Millie Adams (19), sister of Sussex's Georgia Adams.
