The Blaze made a pleasing return to the Metro Bank One Day Cup as they beat Surrey at Beckenham by five wickets, thanks in large part to a match-winning 96 from Georgia Elwiss.

Having won the toss and seen the opening bowlers, Grace Ballinger and Charley Phillips, go wicketless early on, Surrey were in a prime position to win with an opening partnership of 89 between Alice Monaghan and Rhianna MacDonald-Gay.

Once they departed, Surrey struggled to keep the runs flowing, with Maria Andrews, on her List A debut, returning three for 40 as her left-arm spin proved difficult to get away.
