Northwood Town Cricket Club Saturday 1st XI v Preston on Sat 25 Jul 2009 at 1.00pm
Match was Drawn
Match report
NORTHWOOD TOWN played out a draw with Preston in a spritied game played at Chestnut Avenue. Batting first, Phil Costard (25) started well for Town and Johanes Van Ee, batting at five having opened in previous weeks, carved out an important 43. However, at 95-5 Town's resistance - which has broken down in recent weeks - would again be tested. Michael Lister stepped up to the challenge with a stylish 38 and he was supported by Dave Bushnell (16) as the pair put on 37. There was still work to be done and Kazim Naqvi finished the innings well with an unbeaten 22 - although injuring a hamstring in the process which would stop him from bowling - as Town were eventually dismissed for a defendable 181.
Town's bowlers had performed well in recent weeks and were confident of finally getting 30 points on the board. However, despite economical bowling from Dave Bushnell (2-46) and Johanes Van Ee (3-46) the much needed wickets were hard to come by. The introduction of young spinner Veer Vadagama (2-35) brought the real bright spot in the game as he snared two early wickets and had a loud lbw shout for a hat-trick turned down. Preston decided to see out the rest of the game and finished on 171-7.
Skipper Raj Ahluwalia was happier with the performance:
"Really we needed the 30 points, but there were better signs and some good performances. We showed more determination and we bowled well again but unfortunately we didnt have enough to get the important win."
