It was national player Desrene Cox’s turn to take centre stage on Sunday as her Panthers team continued their unbeaten run in the Women’s Cricket League, defeating Greenies by 5 wickets.
Missing a couple of their top players, Greenies came out fighting reaching 72 for no wickets at the 10 overs interval. Cox had excellent figures of 4 overs for 9 runs. An excellent piece of fielding by Panthers’ Carneth Thomas saw her chase and retrieve a well struck ball from the backward square leg boundary. Thomas fired in a bullet return which found Greenies leading batter Carmel Harms short of her ground. Only Caroline Rotsey provided any further resistance as Greenies totalled 111 for 6 wickets.
Greenies were sensing making an upset with Panthers in trouble having loss 5 wickets for 45 runs. But an unbeaten 67 runs partnership between Desrene Cox 29n.o and Verryll Seymour 24n.o restored Panthers for another well-deserved victory.
