In the NCU Women’s Premiership, Holywood remain unbeaten after a 65-run DLS victory against CSNI at Seapark.
Lara Maritz made it two centuries in seven days, as the currently out of favour Irish international sent yet another message to the selectors with a brilliant unbeaten 101 from just 68 deliveries – 17 fours and one maximum.
She dominated a third wicket partnership of 124 in just ten overs with Erin Bond (23no) as the Seapark side racked up 192 in 20 overs.
CSNI were never in contention, struggling to 74 for five in 15 overs – captain Jemma Gillan top-scoring with 20 – before heavy rain forced the players from the field. Alexandra Atkinson with two wickets was the pick of the Holywood attack.
Waringstown are top after they made it four wins from four with a thumping 174-run victory against Muckamore.
Amy Caulfield (33) and Sophie Hinds (29) shared an opening stand of 71 to lay the perfect platform for Charlotte Lyons and Abigaile Gerken. The pair scored half centuries in a third wicket stand of 119 in 11.2 overs to take them to a daunting 200 for three.
Penny Speer then took four wickets as Muckamore were rolled over for just 26 – two wickets apiece for Lyons and Naomi Matthews.
There was no play in the Lisburn versus North Down game scheduled for Wallace Park.
