Scorecard

West Herts II v Northwood Town Cricket Club Saturday 1st XI on Sat 17 Jun 2017 at 1pm
Northwood Town Cricket Club Lost by 5 wickets

Match report Winning the first toss of the season, Loomba decided to bat on what looked a really flat wicket on a really hot day.

Losing two very early wickets, the in-form man Lawrence was in early as he and Loomba looked to rebuild a platform. Lawrence consistently hit a boundary an over to allow Loomba to take his time when scoring runs. Another middle order collapse followed as Town went from being 115/3 to 165 all out. Despite another class innings from Lawrence, the other batsmen failed to support him with Ibrahim and Alexander picking up regular wickets.

In reply, Town had it all to do to try and get 10 wickets with only 165 runs on the board on a good batting track. Vadgama and Lawrence bowled really tight lines to start with to build early pressure. Town had a glimmer of hope when West Herts were 5 down but after Loomba dropped the dangerous Alexander on 50, followed by an onslaught on the captain the over after, the game was all but over and a disappointing day at the office came to an end.

Loomba spoke after: Unfortunately we failed with the bat today and we were always going to need a miracle to take 10 wickets on this track with only 165 runs to play with. We need to go back to the drawing board, rethink the batting order and come back stronger next week. The way we are generally playing, 30 points is only round the corner but we have to turn that corner first.
