Kent (Horses)(women) vs Glamorgan(women) – match 13, L2 – at Beckenham, Kent County Ground (Worsley Bridge Road) (Kent) on Sunday, 10 May 2026
History was made when Coco Streets [89 runs (from 97 balls] became the first woman in either league to score more than 300 runs (301 from 312 balls with two dismissals) from three matches ‘on-the-trot.’ Batting first, Glamorgan women’s innings saw two centuries for guest Scots international Megan McColl 111(90) and Daisy Jeanes 110(84) who made things possible by staging three ‘fifty’ partnerships. Without LiveStream because of technical problems, commentators were gagged on whether Coco Streets would score her third consecutive ‘ton.’ On the day, Coco Streets 89(111) fell eleven runs short, but still made history, as mentioned above. Gap between scores was narrowed by ‘last-ditch’ century partnership between Rachel King 46(42) andElsa Barnfather 70(39) whose ‘power-hitting’ scored four ’sixes,’ beating the ball-slowing outfield. Match was conceded after Katy Cobb took three wickets during the same over, with Izzy Cloke absent (injured.) Separately noted that scorecards mis-stated venue as ‘St Lawrence Ground’); Weather: cloudy grey, with short bursts of light rain, chilly throughout 10C.
