Wormley II v Northwood Town Cricket Club Saturday 2nd XI on Sat 22 May 2010 at 1.00 pm
Northwood Town Cricket Club Lost by 97 runs

Match report Buoyed by their vastly improved performance the previous week Town entered this game with Wormley, who were languishing just above them in the table in confident mood of achieving their first win of the season. This looked on the cards after the first hours play when the steady opening bowling
partnership of Adam Hills and Dave Harding and a wicket for Pradip Pandey had reduced Wormley to 60 for 5. Unfortunately despite the sterling efforts of Hills who finished with 3-60 in 20 overs the back up bowlers were not able to maintain the pressure and Wormley's 5th wicket pair of O'Neill and Pepper through good running between the wicket and a lightning fast outfield
contributed a match winning partnership of over 110.It was only the introduction of Taz Katira who in an amazing four over spell finished with 4 all bowled wickets for just 17 runs that halted Wormley's innings on 208 which was going to require an outstanding batting performance from the
Town if any win was going to be achieved.

Confronted by a very competitive and verbal Wormley bowling attack and fielding side the Town were not able to make the start and put together any partnerships of note and despite a worthy contribution from Neil Cheesewright with 20 in intimidating circumstances and a late flourish from new boy Rukshan Senanayka who finished with 20 not out the innings closed on a very disappointing 111.

On reflecting on the match performance Town captain Dave Harding whilst disappointed with the defeat felt the match winning partnership of the two Wormley batsman was the main turning point in the game as a run chase of a total of 140 - 160 might have been within the Towns's grasp with the limited batting line up at his disposal. The game was also a very good learning curve for one or two of the Town new boys to League cricket in fielding for 50 overs on a very hot day and also experiencing for the first time some verbal intimidation.
