One Day Cup Final - The Blaze go out in last ball thriller

We can finally say goodbye to The Blaze - a nom du guerre no-one ever really got on board with, even in the regional cricket days of yesteryear (OK two seasons ago) - I think it was the use of the definite article that really grated. Blaze was not their moniker it was THE team name. From next season they will revert to Nottinghamshire or more frequently Notts. Thanks be to whatever deity floats your boat. We are led to believe that The Blaze name was retained as the players wanted it. Presumabl

One Day Cup Semi-Final - Top two will fight out the Final

Surrey, having overcome a spirited Somerset team in their effective quarter-final on Saturday, travelled to The Utilita Bowl in Southampton to face Hampshire for a place in Saturday's Final. Having won the toss Surrey elected to field, despite a used pitch and a later start. Three hours later they trudged off the field knowing they needed more than 300 to prolong their season. Hampshire's two England players who were not managing their workloads, were the major contributors to their 303/5. Maia

Round 18 of the One Day Cup - So near and yet so far....

So to the final round of the One Day Cup league fixtures with two matters to be decided. The first is who will finish top and go straight through to the final, and the second is who will finish third and make the semi-final (I refuse to call it the Eliminator) on Wednesday. The Blaze settled the first issue on Friday (not sure why they were allowed to play their final game before all the others?) with a demolition of lowly Essex. The Blaze finish top and Essex finish bottom. The game reflected

Round 17 of the One Day Cup - And then there were 2!

At the start of the day there were four teams vying for the third place slot and a place in the One Day Cup semi-final next Wednesday. They were Warwickshire, Lancashire, Surrey and Somerset. By the end of the day there were just two teams left with a shout - Surrey and Somerset - and they play each other in a delicious encounter at the Oval on Saturday. Warwickshire's chances suffered a catastrophic defenestration when they were bowled out by Surrey for just 55, the lowest team score of the se

Round 16 of the One Day Cup - As Warwickshire Watch On....

Warwickshire, sat in third place in the table, could only sit and watch as those below them in the table tried to sneak past them or close the gap. As it was Somerset, just a point behind, could not put one over on the Mighty Blaze, but Surrey and Lancashire squeezed up the fight for third with victories over Essex and Durham respectively. Surrey won by 118 runs; Lancashire by three! But a win is a win! It means all four teams vying for that third spot are now within just one point of each othe

Round 15 of the One Day Cup - Including the greatest come back of all time

As England thrashed Ireland in the Second ODI, the counties were hard at work battering each other to try and reach the top three of the One Day Cup table. The Blaze are already sure to be there, as are Hampshire now after trampling all over Durham at Chester-le-Street. That leaves just one spot up for grabs and Warwickshire helped their cause with 5 points against hapless Essex. Could Somerset at Headingley and Lancashire, playing mid-table rivals Surrey, do the same? It looked unlikely until Y

Round 14 of the One Day Cup - Run-In Jitters

With some of the England players back in the ranks for a one-off appearance before the Ireland series (you can guess the usual no-shows*) the battle of the mid-table teams all got a bit jittery, with just a few games to go before the season finale. The Blaze's comfortable victory over Warwickshire kept them firmly atop of the ODC table and ensured they will be in the final three come September. Despite their defeat Warwickshire remain in equal third place. Somerset and Surrey kept themselves in

Round 13 of the One Day Cup - Big Hundreds & Battle for Third Place Tightens

As rain fell for the first time in two months the Women's County Championship (aka the One Day Cup) began it's run in to September's semi-final and final. This was Round 13 of 18. Very few of the England players, including those named for the upcoming Ireland ODIs, were available to play, so counties were relying on their up-and-coming youngsters to fill the gaps. As it was there were wins for the top two - The Blaze and Hampshire, who look to be battling it out for the top spot (the pair clash

Round 12 of the One Day Cup - Last one before another break

With England involved in the T20 World Cup and England A in the middle of a low-key series with India A, many of the county sides have been struggling to field full-strength teams. The positive spin is that it gives some the Academy members the chance to make their first team debut. The negative is that some games are less than competitive. In this sandwich filler section Surrey were surprisingly the big losers. They only played two games, but lost to both The Blaze and to Durham. They have sli

Round 11 of the One Day Cup - Collapses, Shocks & Big Wins

On the morning after the night before for Nat Sciver- Brunt's calf, and with England's male football players apparently getting ready for some competition or other, the ladies what cricket were at it again in the One Day Cup. Bottom-dwellers Lancashire toppled the table-toppers The Blaze; Hampshire annihilated Essex, Somerset produced the 40 balls of the season and Yorkshire took the spoils in the Northern derby. Here is how the games worked out...... Durham v Yorkshire Durham 193 ao lost to Yor

Round 10 - Clubs digging deep

With the T20 World Cup in full bling (sorry I mean swing), the 10th Round of the One Day Cup may have sneaked under the radar, and there are still two more rounds to be played in the next 10 days. With quite a few injuries to add to their list of woes clubs are being forced to dig deep to put out an XI. Despite missing their Scottish contingent The Blaze racked up their eighth win consigning potential challengers Surrey to their fourth loss. Hampshire continued their title chase with a win over

Round 9 - The Halfway Mark

Round 9 done, which means that all the teams have now played half their games (8) and the table looks like this. The Blaze have clearly won the first half of the season with seven wins out of their eight games. They have not always looked convincing, particularly with the bat, but they have consistently managed to get over the line. Hampshire are a comfortable second, despite losing to The Blaze this week. They have managed to pick up five wins, as have Surrey in third. Warwickshire sneaked in

A blustery Round 8 round-up

As England managed to scrape past New Zealand in the 1st T20, and Alexa Stonehouse became the 21st member of the ODI squad as Issy Wong went down with a hamstring injury, Round 8 of the One Day Cup duly played out. Round 9 at the weekend will be the halfway mark, and the last before a month long break for The Blast.

Round 7 - The one where all teams batting second won by 5 wickets

I can't help feeling that this week has seen the real beginning of the One Day Cup. The England players have checked out, with the exception of a few fringe players. Suddenly the county stalwarts and depth in squads is coming to the fore, and the playing field has even upped a bit for the likes of Essex and Durham.

Round 6 of the One Day Cup

On a weekend that saw the England World Cup squad dressed in fatigues yomping around the countryside with the British Army, the rest of the professional cricketers simply got on with playing some cricket. Round 6 saw a first defeat for Hampshire; another 100 for Charis Pavely; a five wicket haul for Charley Phillips; and a Dutch vergissing.
