The Blaze Women suffered their first loss of the season after winning the first three matches, where the loss was heavily due to the unavailability of their key players.
Batting first at Trent Bridge against Durham, The Blaze were bowled out for 153 in 19.5 overs. Georgia Elwiss fought hard to steady the middle order with a top score of 31, while Marie Kelly provided a quick 28 at the top. Emma Jones also chipped in with a brisk 24, but regular wickets prevented the side from putting up a massive total.
Defending 153, the bowlers didn't get off to the best of starts where they conceded 52 runs in the first six overs and the momentum was completed with Durham Women. Emma Jones was the standout performer with the ball, picking up 2/21 to offer a brief glimmer of hope, while Charli Knott claimed 1/32.
The Blaze will need the likes of Tammy Beaumont, who is having a lean patch so far where she scored 89 runs in 4 matches. Charli Knott (101 runs) and Georgia Elwiss (81 runs) are the other two key batters that The Blaze rely on to score most of the runs. While in the bowling department Grace Ballinger has been the most economical bowler (5.33) and has picked up 5 wickets.

Warwickshire Women's poor run of form in the season continues as they now lost four matches in a row with the latest coming against Durham Women.
Bowling first at Chester-le-Street, Warwickshire restricted Durham to 140/5. Alexa Stonehouse bowled exceptionally well, taking 1/15 in her 4 overs, while Mary Taylor, Charis Pavely, and captain Georgia Davis picked up a wicket each and played a huge role in slowing down the run-rate in the middle overs.
However, the run chase didn't go as planned as they lost the in-form top order batters early as a result Warwickshire were on the backfoot from the start. Only Chloe Brewer (26 runs), Meg Austin (19 runs), and Charis Pavely (18 rums) managed double figures as Warwickshire crumbled to 113 all out in 18.1 overs.
Warwickshire's biggest problem this season has been the inconsistency of their batters, Abigail Freeborn with 158 runs has provided solid starts at the top alongside Meg Austin (104 runs), but once these two batters get out it has been a procession and late innings collapses right throughout.
The Bears bowlers haven't bowled particularly well either, where they combinedly managed to pick up only 17 wickets and conceding 158 runs per match.
