An unbeaten century from Takapuna batsman Lauren Down helped propel the Ponies to victory against Cornwall in the Prichard Cup final.
Winning the toss and electing to bat, Cornwall made a solid start, opening pair Saachi Shahri and Gemma Adams reaching 81 in the first 25 overs. Naveena Hira snared Shahri’s wicket for 34, which brought Katie Perkins to the crease.
Perkins upped the scoring rate and Cornwall looking comfortable until Adams was LBW to Roz McNeill for 65. Then the Cornwall middle-order struggled to gain traction against the Takapuna bowlers.
While Perkins the scoring from one end, Cornwall’s final six could only add 24 runs between them. After 50 overs, Cornwall had reached 215/7 – Perkins on 72* off 61.
Lauren Down and Maddy Probert opened the batting, and Down began scoring almost immediately.
Fran Jonas bowled Probert for five, and Arlene Kelly came in to join Down. The pair complemented each other’s batting, and as they got going, there was a sense that if Cornwall were going to keep Takapuna out, they needed a breakthrough fast.
That didn’t happen. Instead Down and Kelly batted together past the 30th over, putting on 133 runs. The partnership saw plenty of lovely from both batsmen and Cornwall couldn’t build any real pressure.
When Clare Crooks had Kelly caught behind for 40, it was too little too late.
Down, then on 99, was unfazed by the break. She brought up her century with captain van Deventer at the other and set about getting to the Cornwall total quickly, including hitting a huge six back over the bowler’s head and almost into the hospital next to Cornwall Park.
Takapuna cruised to victory, winning by eight wickets in the 44th over. Down finished the innings on 133 not out, van Deventer on 24.
Cornwall 215/7 (K Perkins 72*, G Adams 65; A Kelly 3-36, N Hira 2-39) lost to Takapuna 218/2 (L Down 133*, A Kelly 40, A van Deventer 24*; C Crooks 1-29) by eight wickets.

22-year-old Down made the ODI side off the back of another strong season
with the Hallyburton Johnstone Shield winning Hearts.
“It was a bit of a surprise to be honest,” said Down.“I’m just really excited to be part of the whole setup, I can’t wait! It
should be a great experience and one I can learn a lot from along the way.”
WHITE FERNS coach Haidee Tiffen said it was the raw talent and athleticism
of Down and fellow potential debutant Kate Heffernan, alongside their
consistent performances, that caught her and selector Kirsty Bond’s attention.
“Both Kate and Lauren are impressive athletes in their own right and will
definitely bring that dynamic edge that we’re looking for,” said Tiffen.
“Lauren’s been on our radar for a while in both formats and we also think
she’s one for the future. She’s explosive with the bat and is a terrific
fielder across the park.”
Canterbury Magicians all-rounder and Kate Ebrahim (nee Broadmore) returns to
the ODI squad, while Northern Spirit’s T20 leading run-scorer Natalie Dodd and
pace-bowler Haley Jensen also return to the international scene in the T20
squad.
“We’ve picked on form and all three players have stuck their hands up and
put in some big performances at times under pressure – which is something we’ve
placed real value on.
“It’s great to have Hayley back in the mix after her successful season with
the Melbourne Renegades in the Australian Women’s Big Bash League. She’s a
quality player and we’re delighted that she’s committed herself to returning to
New Zealand to play her cricket.”Suzie Bates will captain both sides, which feature the familiar faces of vice-captain
Amy Satterthwaite, hard-hitting all-rounder Sophie Devine and 17-year-old
leg-spinner Amelia Kerr.

Takapuna DCC wins the Auckland Cricket Presidents major competition for the first time ever
We did it ! The old boys of Takapuna are the 2016 Auckland President’s Grade Champions.
We have a squad of around 20, hence the higher number of players on the photos.

Takapuna won the toss and decided to bat first. Bar a steady 33 from opener Brendan Smith, Taka had a very poor start by the remaining top order, 67 for 4 at the 17-over (halfway) mark.
But middle order batsmen Rob Jane and Spencer Day recovered the innings at great pace by posting a 115 run partnership. Skipper Rob Jane remaining not out on 57 and Spencer contributing a fabulous 48.
Taka 195 for 8 after their 35 overs. Howick Pakuranga never got into their chase thanks to magnificent bowling from all the bowlers, top wicket takers were Ian Smallburn 2 for 8 of 4 overs and Greg Scott with 5 for 13 of 6 overs.
A great running catch by Rob ter Braak sealed the deal, Howick Pakuranga 80 all out and Takapuna could celebrate a magnificent win.
Takapuna's Lauren Down shines as Auckland Hearts set records

Takapuna Ponies player and Auckland Hearts opening batsman Lauren Down has already been extremely impressive in the Hallyburton Johnstone Shield this season. On the 2nd of December 2018, Lauren Down reached her maiden century for Auckland Hearts in 112 balls, including seven 4s.
Against the Magicians she scored 96 and 56, and the day before Down scored 49. The Auckland Hearts have continued their winning ways in the Hallyburton Johnstone Shield, racking up two victories against the Northern Spirit over the weekend. Congratulations Lauren !!!
Congratulations also to our Premier player Arlene Kelly who played her 50th List-A game. Well done Arlene !!!
