Recapping on 3 wins from 4!

The 1st XI were the only team to lose as they faced league-leaders, Harpenden, at Balls Park. Batting first, the 1s could only manage a score of 116 which was easily chased down by their opponents for the loss of just 2 wickets.

In more positive news, there were solid wins for the other 3 teams as they all look to strengthen their respective league positions. The 2s enjoyed a good win over Bushey as they chased 147 for the loss of 6 wickets. Abeywickrema, Underdown and Orchard excelled with the ball, taking 3 wickets apiece, whilst Mercer scored 50 in the run-chase.

After the 3s came so close to a brilliant run-chase the previous weekend, they got over the line this time around, chasing Langleybury's 258 for the loss of 5 wickets. Beardsley (2-39) and C.Abell (2-37) were the pick of the bowlers, while the game's highlight was the match-winning partnership of 155 between Marnoch (85*) and G.Rideout (80).

The 4s also enjoyed victory away to Holtwhites-Trinibis, chasing 176, 7 wickets down. Johnston (3-32) and A.Rideout (3-42) were the pick of the bowlers while 58 from L.Abell and 39 from Prasad took the team to a much-needed victory.

Just 2 league games to go now...
