KATIE LEVICK is backing Northern Diamonds to still make an impact in this year’s Charlotte Edwards Cup – despite having lost their opening three games.
Significant work lies ahead for the Diamonds if they are to secure a top-four finish and qualify for Finals Day on June 22. They were beaten comfortably by Lancashire Thunder in their opening match but have since been edged out in thrilling last-ball finishes by the Blaze and Central Sparks. The latter came most recently, at Headingley on Monday, when they oh just failed to defend an 11-over target of 81 amid weather disruption.
“One day it’s going to swing our way, and hopefully we can get a bit of momentum going in a competition like this. We are still in it.” Levick is having another excellent season. She has claimed 16 wickets in nine matches across both 50-over and T20 cricket, including six in three in the Cup. Her 16 wickets this summer have taken her beyond the 100-mark in the four-and-a-bit-seasons of regional cricket. She currently has 112 to her name. “I feel in really good form so far this year,” she added.
