Bouchier stars as Hampshire, Durham and Essex win

England batter Maia Bouchier struck a career-best 143 as Hampshire bounced back from Saturday's One-Day Cup loss at Lancashire by beating Somerset by five wickets. The 27-year-old's century ensured that her side cut The Blaze's lead at the top of the table to four points, with both teams having played six games. Elsewhere, Mady Villiers also hit a century after taking three wickets with the ball as Durham picked up their second win of the season at Warwickshire.

And Essex moved up to sixth in the table as they eased to a comfortable five-wicket win over Lancashire at Chelmsford. Odgers century in vain for Somerset At the Utilita Bowl, Bouchier's personal best trumped an exquisite 133 from Somerset's Bex Odgers in Hampshire's five-wicket win. Odgers' first professional ton tied with an unbroken 150 run partnership with Chole Skelton (77) – the highest seventh-wicket partnership in this country in women's List A cricket and the fourth largest of all time for the seventh wicket in this format – had given Hampshire a tricky 282 to chase.

But Bouchier and international team-mate Freya Kemp hammered the bowling in a captivating 149-run partnership for the third wicket in front of England head coach Charlotte Edwards, as Hampshire strode to a fourth win in six. Bouchier only fell when Somerset captain for the day, Niamh Holland pulled off a great catch at long on, but it did not stop Rhianna Southby, Naomi Dattani and Megan Sturge from ticking off the remaining 26 runs with more than nine overs to spare.

Villiers led the bowling attack with 3-38 - and then unfurled a glorious first century for Durham with the bat.
