Steelbacks deserve more recognition
Northamptonshire Steelbacks' players deserve more credit for their T20 Blast performances, according to captain David Willey. A 10-run win over Birmingham Bears on Wednesday made it six wins from their opening six games of the competition. Advertisement They are top of the North Group in which seven victories last season was enough to qualify for the quarter-finals. "There are some brilliant players here - we've got Saif [Zaib] in The Hundred this year but there are a few more guys I would hope would get recognition for their performances and get picked up for a wildcard," the former England all-rounder told BBC Radio Northampton. "We're trying to stay in the present, taking one step at a time and we're actually talking about one ball at a time - and will try to back it up against Durham on Friday." Birmingham looked on course to end the Steelbacks' 100% record when they were 94-1 in the 10th over, chasing 185 for victory, but George Scrimshaw removed Tom Latham and Sam Hain in quick succession before Willey grabbed the prize wicket of Dan Mousley and took a stunning catch in the deep to dismiss Ed Barnard. Advertisement "He [Scrimshaw] is a very talented bowler - he's got some great attributes and to have him out there bowling with the breeze behind him on a pitch which offered him assistance was a game-changer for us and I'm delighted to see him doing well," added Willey. "With the combinations we've got at the death it allows me to use a couple of overs through the middle where we need to make something happen and call on my experience for a couple of tight overs - and to get Mousley out was a key moment."

Myrtle Beach hotels, motels reflect on this year's season before busy CCMF weekend
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WBTW) — With the summer season just around the corner, Myrtle Beach hotels and motels are reflecting on this year's season before this weekend's Carolina Country Music Fest. The event draws in thousands of people to the city each year, which means local hotels and motels typically anticipate fully-booked rooms. But Theresa Willey, a desk worker at Midtown Inn & Cottages, says she feels this weekend may look a little different. For years, Willey said the motel has had every room booked for months for the CCMF weekend. She said people who have come each year have turned into family as they watch the concerts from the motel's balconies. But Willey feels this year's lineup may be the reason why not every room is booked. She's unsure if the economy or tariffs play a role in the motel's business this year. 'The big names that they're used to for country music aren't here like they normally are,' she said. 'A lot of people don't look at Kid Rock as a country artist. Jelly Roll, I think because he is the new artist, that a lot of people are excited about him. But they still don't know what side of the fence he's on.' Willey said this year's season for business has been up and down due to weather. With this weekend's forecast showing rain, she hopes it doesn't turn away even more guests. In years past — rain or shine — Willey said country music lovers have made their way to the motel to watch the concert from the motel. Which makes her believe the lineup is the main reason why some familiar faces won't be returning to stay at Midtown Inn & Cottages. 'I'm going to miss a lot of them, because it's like a big family weekend, like a reunion, you know?' she said. 'So I'm going to miss a lot of the people who are normally here. But then you get to meet new faces that are coming in.' Willey said the motel will continue to rely on CCMF for business, but she said they may need to rely more heavily on bike week events moving forward. Down the road along the boulevard, Oceans One Bar Harbor and Bermuda Sands Hotels' executive director of operations, Ray Booth, said this year's season has been steady. But he says the hotel's rates are different. 'The rates are a little bit depressed. A lot of competition in the area, and it seems like people were a little bit more on a budget looking for a deal,' he said. Booth said CCMF is also one of their best weekends for bookings of the entire year. He said they plan to have more bookings made for the event later in the week and anticipates most of the guests coming in Thursday. Booth said he believes inflation has more to do with the hotel's business fluctuation this season. 'I think inflation has more to do than anything than tariffs do,' he said. 'You know, people have had their wallets pinched for the last few years and they're trying to to save as much as they can. But hopefully with some prices coming down now, gas prices are coming down — Hopefully you will see a lot more people traveling this summer.' Although some out-of-towners have been concerned about recent crime on Ocean Boulevard, Booth feels that's not a main reason impacting the hotel's business. 'I've had people call and say, 'Well, I heard there was a shooting or something.' You know, and they wonder whether it's safe. Obviously, you tell them that we are safe, that the police do everything they can do, and hopefully they can limit those types of incidents,' he said. 'Then you ask them where they're from and they tell you Chicago. So, it's all relative. Even though we're a small town, we still have the crime just like everybody else does.' Booth said being in a market where other hotels compete just around the corner, making sure the business stays on top isn't easy. 'Most of the hotels last year, I think, were probably down 6 or 7%. You know, we're still coming off a down year, but increasing prices are not something you do when you're in a market that has heavy competition,' he said. 'We just have to deal with it and overcome it.' Carolina Country Music Fest begins Thursday and ends Sunday. * * * Gabby Jonas joined the News13 team as a multimedia journalist in April 2024.

Kent beat holders Gloucestershire in Blast thriller as Somerset see off Surrey
Crawley smashed four maximums in a rapid 37 from 17 balls while Daniel Bell-Drummond top-scored for hosts Kent with 60 in an imposing total of 208 for three in Canterbury. It proved too much for Gloucestershire but only just as late hitting by Ben Charlesworth (38) revived their hopes before two for 22 by Tom Rogers made sure the champions got their South Group campaign under way with a defeat after being restricted to 204 for seven. Just the 26 runs off five balls for Zak Crawley 😅 — Vitality Blast (@VitalityBlast) May 30, 2025 Somerset won a repeat of last year's semi-final with Surrey despite a fine innings of 92 by former England opener Jason Roy. Roy, who last played for his country in 2023, scorched a scintillating 92, but received little support as Surrey limped to 146 for nine. Overseas pace duo Matt Henry and Riley Meredith claimed three-wicket hauls for 2024 runners-up Somerset, who won by five wickets with 13 balls to spare after Will Smeed led the way at the top of the order with 35. Liam Dawson had Essex in a spin to help Hampshire record a thumping 106-run victory at Ageas Bowl. James Vince (62) was one of three Hampshire batters to pass fifty and it helped his team post a mammoth 230 for seven. Michael Pepper struck 51 for Essex before falling to Dawson, who finished with four for 26 after recently being recalled to the England set-up. A post shared by Hampshire Cricket (@hantscricket) Birmingham Bears topped North Group last year but started this season with a seven-wicket loss to Nottinghamshire in a high-scoring encounter. Sam Hain's unbeaten 92 proved the bedrock of Bears' 226 for five, but he was outclassed at Trent Bridge by Jack Haynes. Haynes blitzed 89 not out from 41 balls, with 11 fours and three sixes, to lead Nottinghamshire home in the final over. A superb individual display by David Willey inspired Northamptonshire to a 13-run victory over former club Yorkshire in another run fest. Northamptonshire captain Willey struck 54 and along with Justin Broad's 67 it helped the away side make 237 for four at Headingley. Both James Wharton and Will Sutherland hit 58 for Yorkshire, but three for 42 for Willey made sure his new team fought back to limit the hosts to 224 for nine. Shan Masood guided Leicestershire to a five-wicket triumph over Derbyshire with 45 not out. Derbyshire made 170 for six, but were indebted to 70 down the order from Martin Andersson after three for 37 from Logan van Been had them reeling on 51 for five. A mature innings from Pakistan captain Masood endured Leicestershire chased their target with minimal fuss with Pat Brown, who earned an England Lions recall last winter, smashed for 47 off his 2.4 overs.
