St. Fagans CC continued their spirited effort in defending their league title, with a 202-run thrashing of Ammanford CC, with former Glamorgan One-Day Cup winner Steven Reingold hitting a century, backed up with the ball by Andy Gorvin who gave away only 14 runs, picking up two wickets in the process, in his 7-over spell. Glamorgan U18 regular Zac Williams and former Glamorgan player Owen Morgan picked up 3-fers to dismantle the Tom Bevan-led Ammanforf CC batting line-up.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Former Sri Lanka U19 all-rounder Caniston Gunaratnam, now studying at the University of South Wales and playing for Pontarddulais CC, scored a century for his club in a 7-wicket win against Cardiff CC. The men&#8217;s North Wales Premier League returned after a month-long break, with Menai Bridge CC recording the biggest win, by a margin of 188 runs against Bethesda CC. Smit Parekh&#8217;s 6-25 helped Bangor CC beat Conwy CC by 154 runs. Brymbo CC recorded a thrilling 4-run over Denbigh CC, while Mochdre CC continued their ascend in the table.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Over in the women&#8217;s South Wales Premier League, young keeper-batter Elizabeth Cox scored a hundred for The Panthers in their 104-run win against Radyr CC, while Pembroke CC beat Newport CC by 35 runs. In the men&#8217;s Welsh Cup quarter-final, holders St. Fagans CC were knocked out by Clydach CC, thanks to a great display of fast-bowling from the Swansea valley club&#8217;s Pakistani overseas Ahmed Bashir.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>South Wales Men\u2019s Premier League<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Abergavenny CC<\/strong> 318\/6 (R Avery 137, J Ryan 118, M Bevans 43*; O Webber 4\/87) <strong>beat Swansea CC<\/strong> 213 (A Haider 51; O Harris 3\/58) by 105 runs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bridgend Town CC<\/strong> 203\/8 (S Wood 76*, L Humphries 30; T Morgan 4\/33, A Fletcher 3\/52) <strong>beat Ynystawe CC<\/strong> 202\/8 (A Singh 64, T Blake 53; A Davies 3\/24) by 2 wickets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Newport CC<\/strong> 168 (C MacMillan 48, K Sahabdeen 34; O Rayner 4\/35) <strong>beat Usk CC<\/strong> 153 (E Doyle 56; T Barry 3\/9, S Saeed 3\/21) by 15 runs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pontarddulais CC<\/strong> 230\/3 (C Gunaratnam 115*, C Herring 80*)<strong> beat Cardiff CC<\/strong> 226\/7 (S Wyatt 88, B Garrett 39, S Swingwood 35; R Grant 4\/41) by 7 wickets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>St Fagans CC<\/strong> 319\/7 (S Reingold 137, O Morgan 85; J Kenchington 3\/52)<strong> beat Ammanford CC<\/strong> 117 (D Driscoll 36, T Bevan 33; Z Williams 3\/26, O Morgan 3\/34) by 202 runs.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>North Wales Men\u2019s Premier League<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bangor CC<\/strong> 281\/9 (N Scott 110, L McCann 38, F Kasner 37, N Rehman 37; Lalmon TV 4\/30) <strong>beat Conwy CC<\/strong> 127 (Lalmon TV 33, L Tawhai 30*; S Parekh 6\/25) by 154 runs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Brymbo CC<\/strong> 271\/4 (J Claybrook 63*, C Taylor 56, J Barnard 54, S Aplin 50) <strong>beat Denbigh CC<\/strong> 267\/7 (I Jones 65*, H Jones 63, G Lyall 60; R Deniz 3\/51) by 4 runs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Menai Bridge CC<\/strong> 269\/9 (J Gower 82, G Roberts 69) <strong>beat Bethesda CC<\/strong> 81 (A Wood 3\/4, P Glover 3\/34) by 188 runs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mochdre CC<\/strong> 95\/7 (I de Silva 4\/13)<strong> beat Gwersyllt Park CC<\/strong> 91 (A Campion 3\/7) by 3 wickets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Northop CC<\/strong> 199\/5 (J Evans 83, E Colclough 61; M Ryan 3\/12) <strong>beat St Asaph CC<\/strong> 195\/9 (W Ryan 43, W Norman 32; M Mullarkey 4\/52) by 5 wickets.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Men\u2019s Welsh Cup Quarter-Finals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Clydach CC<\/strong> 132\/4 (J Hubschmid 76) <strong>beat St Fagans CC<\/strong> 167\/7 (O Morgan 72; A Bashir 3\/22) by 6 wickets (DLS).<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>South Wales Women\u2019s Premier League<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pembroke CC<\/strong> 184 (A Westwood 3\/32) <strong>beat Newport CC<\/strong> 149 (S Mohammed 45, S Williams 43) by 35 runs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Panthers CC<\/strong> 256\/6 (E Cox 111*, D Barnfield 31) <strong>beat Radyr CC 154<\/strong> (A Poole 38; I Thorndike 4\/13) by 102 runs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 13th weekend of Premier League club cricket concluded in Wales, with the men&#8217;s North Wales Premier League&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":103905,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5010],"tags":[748,4884,16,15,1764],"class_list":{"0":"post-302119","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-wales","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-great-britain","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-wales"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114938446374823652","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/302119","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=302119"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/302119\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/103905"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=302119"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=302119"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=302119"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
