Fleming and school-mate Claire McGuirk are part of a side that after a first-up loss to Riverina convincingly beat Western in their second game for the day.
Fleming was integral to that striking 24 at first drop as North West chased down Western’s 7-54 in 12 overs.
She was at the crease with Lara Graham (Oxley High) when they achieved the runs, the two putting on 32 for the third wicket.
McGuirk wasn’t required to bat but finished with 0-1 from a tidy one over in what was a suffocating performance from the North West bowlers.
She had copped some stick from Riverina in their morning Twenty20 but wasn’t alone in that.
Fleming isn’t bowling after picking up an injury at the recent National Indigenous Championships, where she helped NSW claim a 10th successive title.
North West play Sydney East and Hunter on Tuesday in another two Twenty20s.
