Ami Campbell was both happy and relieved after helping Yorkshire to a 150-run Metro Bank One-Day Cup victory over Gloucestershire at Bristol today.<\/p>\n
Campbell\u2019s 98 not out off 61 balls continued her impressive form in this competition, taking her to 350 runs in six innings across seven matches. She underpinned Yorkshire\u2019s 281-7 total, to which the hosts replied with 131 all out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The White Rose\u2019s fourth win in seven games has consolidated their position in fourth in the table, and with two group games remaining they are on course for the semi-finals.<\/p>\n
This win ends a difficult few weeks for Yorkshire, who snapped a three-game losing streak across competitions. They were beaten by Middlesex twice on successive Saturdays, both in the Vitality Blast T20 final and this competition.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They then lost to Glamorgan in this One-Day Cup last Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe really, really wanted to win today, and it puts us in good stead for getting into the semis,\u201d said the experienced left-hander.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe struggled the last few games with just building partnerships.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve trained really hard all week, putting emphasis on backing our shots and playing confidently against slower spin bowling, which I think we struggled with.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe pitch today was actually not easy. Not a lot actually came out of the middle of my bat, I don\u2019t think. It felt like it kept coming off my toe.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere was a little bit of turn, there was a little bit of bounce. It was a pitch that you really had to dig in on. Thankfully, my bigger shots came off today.<\/p>\n
\u201cHonestly, towards the back end, they bowled well. They were just bowling really full. If I\u2019ve got a switch hit coming out, then I\u2019m in trouble. Do you know what I mean. I\u2019m struggling to find any other options.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were aiming for 250, so we were really happy with what we got at the end.\u201d<\/p>\n
After Amelia Oliver\u2019s calm and impressive career best 61 at the top of the order, Yorkshire\u2019s innings was really accelerated through a fifth-wicket partnership of 78 between Campbell and Olivia Thomas, who chipped in with 33, from 134-4 in the 33rd over.<\/p>\n
\u201cI really enjoy batting with Liv because we\u2019ve got a similar sort of fighting intensity. She ran hard with me. It was really hot out there today, so we were both blowing at one point.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut, yeah, we just kept ticking for the team.\u201d<\/p>\n
Thomas was excellent, also adding three wickets with her leg-spin.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe bowled really well, again,\u201d added Campbell.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe bowlers have been very good for us throughout the season. Thankfully, we were able to pull through with those partnerships with the bat, and it all came together.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Picture by Allan McKenzie\/SWPix.com.
