Jersey thrash Guernsey to retain inter-island crown           BBC

Jersey’s women thrashed Channel Island rivals Guernsey by 89 runs to win their annual T20 fixture. Jersey made 200-4 in their 20 overs in a rain-affected clash at the KGV, with Grace Wetherall scoring 68 from 43 balls, including three sixes and seven fours.

She and opener Analise Merritt shared a second-wicket stand of 98 before Merritt was trapped lbw by Molly Robinson for 53 off 31 balls. Erin Gouge added an unbeaten 26 in the final overs of the innings, while Robinson had figures of 2-26.

In reply, the poor weather meant Guernsey were set a revised target of 135 to win from 12 overs. But Jersey’s bowlers showed little mercy as the Sarnians were restricted to just 45-5 off their revised allocation. Opener Philippa Stahelin was the only Guernsey player to reach double figures before she was run out for 16 as Jersey skipper Chloe Greechan took two wickets for just six runs from her three overs.

The win continued Jersey’s dominance of the fixture – last year they beat Guernsey by 104 runs, while in 2023 they won a three-match T20 series 3-0 thanks to a 61-run win, an eight-wicket victory and their record winning margin in a T20 international of 157 runs.

“With the weather it was quite tough to get back in the mindset of going back out there and restricting Guernsey,” Greechan told BBC Radio Jersey. “But we bowled really and with Analise and Grace we’re batting really well.”

Guernsey captain Krista de la Mare said: “It wasn’t the result we were looking for but we’re really happy with how we played. “Our big thing today was to try and keep the energy up, keep the vibe up in the field and come up with a positive vibe and I think we’ve really done that. “It’s a shame about the result, but I think we’ve taken a lot out of today.”
