Jersey beat Guernsey by six wickets in women's T20 inter-insular first leg

Four Jersey players made their debuts in the game

Jersey beat Guernsey by six wickets with four balls to spare in the first leg of the women's T20 inter-insular.

The Sarnians were put in to bat and scored 93-8 from their 20 overs at College Field.

In reply, Tracey Vallois finished on 31 not out as a youthful Jersey side, without ex-captain Gemma Dunning, reached the target in the final over.

"We controlled the run chase very well, so it was a really good performance," said Jersey coach Elliot Corbel.

Guernsey coach Jason Shambrook commented: "We were a little bit wayward with the extras - I think we bowled 30-odd runs in extras, which was a third of the score.

"If you do that it's very difficult to win games."

The second leg will be played in Guernsey on 23 July.
