Ashington batting, at Langwell Crescent Memorial Ground, during the early stages of a seven-wicket Premier Division defeat by Newcastle-based North East Premier League leaders South Northumberland, historically the competition's dominant force.
Impressive batting from Nikhil Gorantla powered South North to their emphatic victory. With the visitors 38-2 when the Durham University student came to the crease, Ashington, this 2023 season playing Premier Division cricket for the first time, appeared to be in a strong position.
But Gorantla, who has turned out for Essex Seconds and Cambridgeshire, struck an unbeaten 134 off 110 balls, including 17 fours and four sixes. To rub salt in the Mighty Acorns' wounds, the teenager clinched victory by clubbing a down-the-ground six. With Chris Hewison (32), Gorantla added 105 for the third wicket. His unbroken partnership for the fourth wicket with Adam Cragg (58 not out off 41) was worth 112. By the end, Ashington, for whom Matthew Collins took 2-57 from 14 overs, looked pretty demoralised.
Understandably so. Put in, Ashington stuck at their task, and 254 looked a decent score. According to regulars, 230 is the minimum required on a traditionally good wicket. Mitchell Killeen (52 off 75), Caribbean pro Jeremiah Louis (51 off 60), opener Jack Jessup (46 off 57) and wicketkeeper Jack McCarthy (31 off 30) contributed usefully. Spin duo Oliver McGee (4-44 from 15) and Lee Crozier (2-84 from 15) shared the bulk of the wickets. With the Ashington score at 146, Crozier removed batters four and five in a single over.

We are trying to investigate ways in which organic waste can be separated and used for compost in urban gardens and tree nursaries. Additionally, we are interested in helping to improve the efficieny of the collection methods for the takataka collectors.
After a few weeks of hot and humid weather, the last couple days have been gorgeous! We've just been soaking it up with lots of time outside. We had the best time playing in the backyard last evening, and Nadia loved for us to push her around in the car. She'd shout "go, go!" to urge us to run faster, and her delighted laughter brought us such joy. I love simple family evenings like that!
