Maia Lewis plays big hand for Wellington Lynn McConnell - 15 January 2001
Former New Zealand captain Maia Lewis scored an outstanding 89 for Wellington against Northern Districts at Hamilton in the State Insurance Cup game today. Lewis, who has been troubled with injuries in recent seasons, made her first mistake of the innings when dismissed. CLEAR White Fern Anna O'Leary, the Wellington captain, scored 28 and Amanda Cooper 30 for Wellington. Nicola Browne had fine figures of 3-33 from her 8.1 overs and she was well supported by Victoria Brown who took 2-36 from 10 overs. In fine conditions in Christchurch, Canterbury recovered to score 180 after an early setback when they lost three wickets in 12 balls with the score on 14. Natalie Scripps got right among the young Canterbury side and finished with 5-37 from her 8.3 overs. However, a 68-run partnership between Paula Flannery and Jo Lawler ensured a more competitive score from the Cantabrians. Flannery scored 49 before being run out while Lawler was out for 29. Fiona Fraser, in her debut match for Canterbury, scored a quick-fire 19 off 21 balls.
Scores at the lunchbreak were: Canterbury 180 (Paula Flannery 49, Jo Lawler 29, Amiria Marsh 34, Fiona Fraser 19; Natalie Scripps 5-37, Kathryn Ramel 1-17, Helen Watson 1-32) met Auckland at Hagley Oval. Wellington 226 (Anna O'Leary 28, Maia Lewis 89, Amanda Cooper 30; Helen Partridge 3-35, Victoria Brown 2-36, Nicola Browne 3-33) met Northern Districts at WestpacTrust Park.
