Southgate Adelaide v Northwood Town Cricket Club Saturday 1st XI on Sat 06 Jun 2015 at 1pm
Northwood Town Cricket Club Lost by 4 wickets

Match report Vice captain Akshay Loomba took on the role as captain while Michael Listers nursed an injury to see if we could pick up our first 30 points. Winning the toss, town decided to bat on what was a glorious day in Southgate.

A yorker on the toes of Loomba sent him back for 0 but that didnt stop Mekwan and Kyle from playing their natural game and got town off to a flyer at 40-1 off 4 overs. After the loss of a couple more wickets, Lawrence (51) and Burt (40) were playing some glorious drives to look to rebuild and get Northwood Town back on track. Unfortunately the tail didn't wag and Town only managed to bat just over half of their allotted overs to reach a disappointing 148 all out.

There was an instant turnaround and Towns openers had half an hour to have a go before the tea break. Lawrence and Daly used the new ball to great effect with both bowlers swinging the ball with great skill causing a lot of trouble for Southgate Adelaide's top order. Ten overs in, tea was taken and Town were easily on top with the home team struggling on 19-5. Post tea, a mix of wayward bowling and good batting from Ahmed saw Southgate adelaide notch up runs very quickly and before we knew it, the win was getting further and further away from us.

Town only managed one wicket after tea to end a disappointing game. Loomba spoke after the game: 'After a disappointing batting performance, we needed to come out fighting with the ball and we did exactly that to go into tea in a really strong position. We let ourselves down after tea and the bowlers simply couldnt find their rhythm and consistency. It is something we need to work on and if we want to start winning games we need to bowl more consistently without so many four balls. We will take this experience onto next week and I hope the boys will learn from this.'
