Scorecard

Northwood Town Cricket Club Saturday 1st XI v Southgate Adelaide on Sat 02 Jul 2016 at 1pm
Match was Drawn

Match report Northwood town managed to escape with a hard fought draw in what was a very touch day for the home side.

After losing the toss and being asked to field, Southgate Adelaide never seemed to be in any real trouble despite a long outfield offering no value for shots. A fantastic knock from Mahmood, supported well by Ahmed ensured Adelaide got up to a very good score of 213 from 50 overs declared.

In response, Town knew they would need to bat aggressively to reach this target and the long outfield meant a flurry of early wickets as batsmen tried to force the ball over the top to negate the situation.

At 35-6 and in real trouble, the home side realised that it would take a miracle to win the game and decided to fight for the draw. An incredibly patient knock from Mikhil Patel who regularly behaves like a 10 year old, batted like a stubborn old man not wanting to give his wicket away. Mikhil was supported well by Jamie Cotton who was completely in his zone when given instructions to just block and Ravi Kotecha who supported Mikhil well until the end despite some nasty sledging.

Town remain unbeaten in 6 as they host Waltham X Rosedale next week.
