Durham Women started their season with a 42-run loss against the Birmingham Bears Women, followed by an 18-run defeat to the Lancashire Women in their second match. After these two early losses, Durham Women got on the board with a one-run victory over the dominant Hampshire Women.
However, after their win, the Durham Women are once again back to losing ways, having lost to Surrey Women by nine wickets. Batting first, Durham Women posted a score of 141/5. Hollie Armitage scored her first half-century of the season (50 runs in 49 balls). Bess Heath (27 runs in 18 balls) and Mia Rogers (25 runs in 20 balls) powered them to a respectable total.
Then, Lancashire Women chased down the target in 12.5 overs, losing just one wicket, which was taken by Phoebe Turner. The rest of the bowling lineup failed to maintain their line and lengths, resulting in Durham Women's third loss this season.
Suzie Bates, with 153 runs and four wickets in four matches, tops both the batting and bowling charts and has been the lone warrior for Durham Women. Katie Levick and Trudy Johnson have also picked up three wickets each.

The Birmingham Bears Women have had a mixed season so far, winning two matches: against the Durham Women by 42 runs and against the Somerset Women by 69 runs. However, they have also lost two matches: against Essex Women by 19 runs (D/L method) and, in their last match, against the Lancashire Women by 5 runs in a closely contested game.
Bowling first, the Bears Women's performance wasn't great, as they conceded 10-15 runs above the par score, with Lancashire Women finishing at 162/7. Millie Taylor was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 2/25.
Chasing the target, the Bears Women got off to a good start, scoring 43 runs for the first wicket in 32 balls. Davina Perrin continued her good run of form, scoring 34 runs in 23 balls. Natasha Wraith's unbeaten knock of 58 runs off 34 balls, however, couldn't save the Bears from losing the match.
So far this season, Davina Perrin has scored 176 runs in 5 matches, and Laura Harris has also scored 142 runs in five matches; both these batters are key for the Bears Women in this fixture. In the bowling department, Millie Taylor, with 8 wickets, and Georgia Davis, with 7 wickets, are the top bowlers.
