Glamorgan pair Colin Ingram (69) and Asa Tribe (56) had both made quick-fire half-centuries for the visitors, but Lawrence, who was undefeated after facing 54 balls, sealed Surrey's win with a straight six.
WHAT A WIN! 📈
Dan Lawrence (120*) and Tom Curran (49*) take us home with a ridiculous 146-run unbeaten partnership. 💥
Some team.

East tennis teams surpass expectations

Mission accomplished and a bit more besides has to be the verdict on the East women and men's tennis teams after another Summer County Cup brought together teams from up and down the UK. East women surpassed themselves as a side promoted the previous year by climbing higher up the scale into Division Two for 2026. As for the men it was no secret that they could struggle into Division One shorn of several key players but the squad dug deep and not only finished third but could have actually taken the title on the final day had Surrey opponents not proved too strong. So, with wins over North Wales, Essex, Norfolk and Lincolnshire the East women go up again, their only defeat this year coming against Warwickshire on the Cheltenham courts. Leading performers were Mhairi Beattie (10 sets won out of 13 played), Hanna Augustynska (9-11) and Sarah McFadyen (9-14). Key was winning a series of tight matches by five ties to four. Victories over North Scotland, Northamptonshire and South Wales while losing to Warwickshire and Surrey meant the men will return to Division One next year and if American based pro's Jake Fearnley and Matt Rankin were to become available that would boost their chances hugely. Top individual performers on the Eastbourne grass were James MacKinlay (12-15) and Scott Duncan (11-15). The East women's squad is pictured aas, back row, left to right – Mhairi BeBeattie, Eva Vrhunec, Heather Croll, Shaylin Holt. Front – Hanna Augustynska, Aaadya, Iyer Chadalawada, Ama Nisbet.

West Ham plotting Championship raid for new goalkeeper after Everton had approach turned down

WEST HAM have put Sheffield United keeper Michael Cooper on their hit list. Hammers will make final checks on the 25-year-old before the transfer window shuts. 4 4 The Blades would want about £15million for Cooper, who they got from Plymouth for an initial £2m in 2024 Former West Ham boss David Moyes has already tried to land the stopper, but Sheffield United rejected the approach from Everton. Last season in the Championship, Cooper impressed as the Blades challenged for promotion to the Premier League. The Yorkshire side missed out on a return to the top-flight after losing in the playoff final to Sunderland. Cooper kept 21 clean sheets in 43 appearances for the Blades and achieved a save percentage of 76.9 per cent. The Hammers, however, struggled in the Premier League and rotated between Alphonse Areola and Lukasz Fabianski. The veteran Polish goalkeeper has left the London Stadium after his contract expired. Areola remained, but there are doubts over his abilities after multiple errors last season. The Frenchman was at fault again in the Hammers' 2-1 defeat to Manchester United in their Premier League Summer Series clash last night. The former Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid ace gave away the penalty that allowed Bruno Fernandes to put the Red Devils ahead. Everton and West Ham to fight it out for Douglas Luiz West Ham only have veteran and former Sheffield United stopper Wes Foderingham as their other option between the sticks. The 34-year-old made the switch to East London last summer on a two-year deal after he was released by the Blades. Blades boss Ruben Selles has insisted that Cooper is going nowhere this summer. The manager made the claim after the former Pilgrim missed the 2-1 pre-season win over Burton Albion on Tuesday. 4 He said: "The last game was a decision from me to give the other goalkeepers some minutes. "He felt a bit of discomfort in the knee, but he should be back in a couple of days. "He's definitely staying, it's not about that. "I understand the concerns because he wasn't there, but it has nothing to do with that." The Hammers have already added Kyle Walker-Peters and El Hadji Malick Diouf to their squad this summer. Callum Wilson is also closing in on a move to the London Stadium following his release from Newcastle. 4

Priest 'proud' of Glamorgan Women despite T20 exit

Glamorgan coach Rachel Priest says she is proud of her team despite their seven-wicket defeat by Yorkshire on League Two T20 Finals North group winners, including England internationals Lauren Winfield-Hill and Beth Langston, will be a Tier One side next season, a year before Glamorgan go fully professional."I'm really proud of the way the girls carried themselves, against a professional team it was never going to be easy for us but the girls put on an amazing show," said Priest."We just fell away a bit with the bat and we need to keep working on options to score boundaries throughout the innings." Glamorgan won five of seven completed games to finish second in the South group, whereas Yorkshire stormed through the northern section unbeaten in eight."Extremely positive, the hard work in the winter has shown on the field and we'll look to keep building on that," Priest told BBC Sport Wales."If we can recruit some players and keep working with the players we've got, we'll look to be where Yorkshire are now."It's really exciting to have cricket as your job and lots of our girls are working hard towards that opportunity."Glamorgan have included a clutch of professional loan players on the fringe of Tier One counties throughout their campaign, with Warwickshire batter Bethan Ellis making a string of appearances, teenage Hampshire all-rounder Poppy Tulloch featuring in all the Blast games and Somerset batter Niamh Holland returning for the such as Emily Burke, Daisy Mullan, Emma Jones and Erin Vukusic have also worn the daffodil badge this season, with Priest having an eye on future recruitment as well as hoping professional habits benefit her mostly young semi-pro side."Yorkshire have got eight or nine full professionals, so it's a great experience for our girls to have played against them," said 26-year-old Ellis, born in Leamington Spa of Welsh parents."For a 17-year-old (Poppy Walker) to have bowled against ex-England players is something to learn from.""Glamorgan have welcomed me and I felt part of the team straightaway, I've really enjoyed it," added Ellis, who ducked a question about whether she would consider a permanent have a chance of further knockout cricket in September in the One Day Cup, where they stand third in League Two after four of the nine group games.
