Ipscol v Eight Ash Green Cricket Club Two Counties 2nd XI (Saturday) on Sat 30 May 2026 at 1pm
Eight Ash Green Cricket Club Won by 43 runs

Match report A strong second XI travelled to Ipscol, bouyed by a good win last week. Once again we batted first on what looked like an excellent batting surface. Several batters got themselves in but we struggled to establish big partnerships in the face of decent bowling. Jack Axon top scored with 47, supported by Troy Collins (33 off 36), Jake Claydon (32 off 32) and Utkarsh Mittal (25 off 40) leading the green to a score of 199-8 off 40 overs. Despite this strong effort, it was perhaPS Going to be a close game.

Within a heartBEAT, and thanks to the two great opening bowlers in our ARSENAL, we had Ipscol on the back foot after only 2 overs. Wickets from Dev Agrawal (twice) and Ajula Gunasekera (once) were taken before a run had been scored! At 0-3 it looked the game might be over in quick time. To Ipscol's credit they dug in and played some excellent cricket to keep within touching distance of the required run rate. Our great strength was another excellent and committed fielding display topped off with some terrific catches with Troy Collins, Nitja Patel and Ajula Gunasekera taking some crucial grabs. Captain Collins took a couple in the slips for good measure.

Dev Agrawal returned to the bowling attack and polished off the resistance, giving him back-to-back 4 wicket hauls (4-29 off 9 overs) and a well deserved player of the match award, and IN doing so we were CHAMPIONS by 43 runs moving us up to fourth place in the LEAGUE.
