Glamorgan Women sealed a League Two Finals Day place with a match to spare, as they cruised to a nine-wicket victory over Gloucestershire.<\/p>\n
Bethan Ellis (67*) and Bethan Gammon (40*) made short work of a target of 115 in the 14th over, taking Glamorgan to their fifth win in six completed games.<\/p>\n
It was the first time Glamorgan Women had played a home double-header with the men’s team.<\/p>\n
Bea Willis top-scored with 28 in Gloucestershire’s 114-5, while Anna-Mae Shearn was the most successful bowler with 2-27.<\/p>\n
Visiting captain Melissa Story chose to bat and Willis got them off to a decent start, reaching 36-1 in the powerplay.<\/p>\n
But Shearn bowled her in the eighth over and Gloucestershire could not accelerate on a pitch with large wide boundaries in place for the men’s game, with Georgia Cant’s 16 not out the best of a series of cameos.<\/p>\n
Spinner Gemma Porter was as usual the most economical home bowler, with 1-16 in the powerplay and death overs.<\/p>\n
Captain Lauren Parfitt fell to Charlie Phillips (1-17) in the first over of the Glamorgan reply, but Ellis and Gammon rode their luck and went hard in the powerplay with 20 coming off the sixth over.<\/p>\n
Warwickshire loanee Ellis, 25, had most of the strike, bringing up her 50 off 42 balls, but Gammon was equally aggressive as their century stand took just 11 overs.<\/p>\n
Ellis belted her ninth four over mid-on to end the contest, while Gammon’s runs came off just 26 deliveries to give her an impressive strike-rate.<\/p>\n
Glamorgan qualify alongside Middlesex from the South Group for Finals Day at Northampton on Saturday, 26 July.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
