Scorecard

Eight Ash Green Cricket Club Two Counties 1st XI (Saturday) v Abberton & District on Sat 22 Aug 2020 at 13.00
Eight Ash Green Cricket Club Lost by 16 runs

Match report The Green missed the opportunity to grab a win double over Abberton as the visitors eased home by 16 runs, despite the fact that we had restricted them to only 167. That they reached such a score was largely down to a belligerent 93 from skipper Sullivan, our old friend Kev Smith missing out this time as he fell first ball. Bowling honours to Jens Wair whose 8 overs yielded 2-23, including that prized wicket of Smith. The Matt's Norris and Parker each also took a brace of wickets, at the start and end of the innings respectively and there were two run-outs, the second the result of some nifty footwork from captain Stephen Nunn.
Parker opened the batting for us and reminded us what we are missing from James as he blocked his way to a magnificent 4 from 47 balls. Ollie Mewis & Will Spicer batted around Parker in reaching the 20's, but neither was able to anchor the innings and see us through to victory. The middle order came and went in rapid succession; ultimately we were only able to run Abberton so close thanks to numbers 8 & 10, Nunn (36*) & Wair (28), who not only entertained us with an excellent partnership, but also had us believing we could pull off an unlikely win. Alas, it was not to be, but in this most surreal of seasons we all know that cricket was the real winner.
