Purley on Thames CC

Scorecard

Finchampstead 3 v Purley on Thames CC Saturday 1st XI on Sat 02 Jun 2018 at 1pm
Purley on Thames CC Won by 4 wickets

Match report The 1st XI won our third game on the bounce with a four wicket victory away at Finchampstead 3s.

Having lost the toss and been invited to field first we bowled economically in the first 10 overs, Alex Clough making the breakthrough early on. Some more tight bowling and some pressure from our spin duo Patrick Allen and George Clarke saw the hosts reduced to 93-5. Batters 7 and 8 dug in and pushed the total to a very competitive 194, Robbie Jeffery taking two wickets at the death to round off his afternoons work with figures of 4-40.

The Purley reply started well with Pat dispatching the opening bowlers to all parts. After he fell for a well made 46 James Measham and George Wheeler kept the score ticking over. An exhibition in clearing the ropes followed from Richard Sanford and Andrew Jackson to put the game firmly in our hands and when Howard departed for 52 it was left to a Clarke partnership to get us over the line.

Next week we return to The Goosecroft for the visit of Falkland 2s looking to make it four out of four 🤞!
