Northwood Town Cricket Club Saturday 1st XI v Eversholt on Sat 19 Jun 2010 at 1.00 pm
Northwood Town Cricket Club Lost by 4 wickets

Match report NORTHWOOD TOWN endured a frustrating four wicket defeat at home to Eversholt as they rued a poor early batting performance and some exasperating decisions.

Batting first, Town were once again guilty of early poor shot selection and they slumped to 33-4. This included a strange lbw decision against Phil Carter which certainly would not be repaid in the visitors reply.
Michael Lister began the fightback with a determined innings of aggression and style. He was mainly supported by the patience of Jim Cotton who showed great composure to keep his wicket, as the pair carved out a critical partnership of 59. Lister was dismissed after a swashbuckling 60 (4x6, 7x4) which he scored in just 67 balls. However, Cotton (44) remained resolute as he built a new partnership of 48 with Veer Vadgama (22). However, once these two were dismissed the writing was on the wall for the Town innings as they were dismissed for 166.
Town began bowling with a sense of purpose and Richard Doling (2-39) in particular was showing excellent pace and movement. However, a series of close lbw shouts were to be turned down and bizarrely laughed at by one umpire to leave Town knowing they needed to hit the stumps if they were to have any success. A crucial catch was dropped which would have had the visitors in trouble at 30-3, but the lucky recipient went on to score a match winning 81. Skipper David Bushnell rotated the bowling and Jack Daly picked up 2-15, but the visitors managed to claim victory with four wickets in hand.
