Ocean Grove claims title

Ocean Grove produced an emphatic performance to claim the Geelong Cricket Association BWCC Division One cricket premiership.

Ocean Grove defeated East Belmont by 40 runs in the decider.

Jackie Johnston won the toss and batted first with Alana Kot (27 from 31 balls) and Tesarna Lapham getting the Grubbers off to a solid start with a 30-run opening stand.

Johnston (37 from 31) and Mandy Adams (31 not out from 26) put the finishing touches on the innings. Grove scored at a run a ball and finished with 5/121 from its 20 overs.

East Belmont struggled to break free from the economical Ocean Grove bowling.

Danielle Vigilante (2/6 from four overs), Lapham (1/8 from four) and Kot (2/16 from four) bowled a tight line and length.

Andrea Frankpitt and Tanya Taylor also took a wicket each and East Belmont finished on 7/81, 40 runs short.
