In a match that began with promise but ended in disappointment for the hosts, Northwood Town 4th XI faced off against a well-drilled Eton Bray CC 2nd XI side at home.

Toss and First Innings: Eton Bray Batting
Northwood lost the toss and were asked to bowl first. Opening bowlers Panash and Abhay set the tone early with a disciplined opening spell, keeping the scoring rate in check. Abhay was rewarded for his persistence, claiming the first breakthrough.

However, Eton Bray responded strongly with a solid second-wicket partnership that rebuilt their innings and shifted momentum. Debutant Vishal Singla made an immediate impact, breaking the partnership and injecting energy into the fielding side.

From there, wickets began to fall at regular intervals, thanks in large part to a sharp spell from captain Dhaval Shah, who led from the front with a standout performance. He returned impressive figures of 7-0-36-3, applying pressure during the middle overs and keeping Northwood in the contest.

Despite the breakthroughs, Eton Bray batted with intent and composure, finishing their innings at a competitive 207 for 8 in 40 overs.

Second Innings: Northwood Town Batting
Chasing 208, Northwood Town’s innings never quite got going. The top order struggled to find rhythm, and the team adopted a cautious approach early on. Unfortunately, this caution turned into stagnation, and pressure mounted quickly.

Wickets began to tumble at regular intervals, with no batter able to anchor the innings or build a meaningful partnership. The Eton Bray bowlers maintained tight lines and capitalized on every opportunity.

In the end, Northwood were bowled out for just 45 runs, suffering a heavy defeat and falling well short of the target.
