 The
Saturday 1st XI was unable to
force a victory in its final
Division 2B match of the season
at home to Fleet. We batted
first on a difficult pitch and
made 174 all out in 52 overs. In
reply, Fleet threatened to
overhaul our total at various
times, but we kept taking
wickets and remained on top.
However, we were unable to bowl
them out as they finished on
133-8 from 48 overs. Zamir Khan
rediscovered his best form with
the ball, taking 6-45 with his
off breaks. So, we have finished
9th out of 10 in the league
table and may or may not be
relegated to Division 3 next
season, we are currently waiting
for the TVCL to resolve all its
issues regarding relegation from
the premier/feeder leagues and
making up an extra team in
Division 1. Watch this space!

 The
Saturday 2nd XI won its final
Division 4B match of the season
away to Farnham Common and in
the process ensured they avoided
relegation and consolidated on
last season's promotion. Knowing
that 14 points from the game
would be sufficient to avoid the
drop, we elected to bat first
and batted excellently to score
280 for 7 before declaring after
50 overs.
The mainstay of the innings was
débutante Mohammed Abraz who
scored a classy 139 with some
timing of the ball. Abraz was
well supported by Kevin
Braithwaite (27) and Simon
Seabrook (24) who helped him add
116 and 87 respectively for the
first two wickets. Upon Abraz's
departure, James Mallinder
entered the fray to hit a quick
fire 37 before Asif Raza (14no)
finished things off with a few
lusty blows.
On a fast scoring outfield,
Jason Page's fiery opening spell
accounted for both Farnham's top
two - the first to a fine catch
by Matt Woods. Ravi Mangat
(4-63) then came on and despite
runs flowing fairly freely for
the home side; wickets fell at
fairly regular intervals.
Mallinder took a blinding
one-handed catch in the slips as
well as a skier to remove
Farnham's top scorer.
Just when the host's lower order
started to show some resistance,
Page returned to take two
wickets in two balls and
eventually finished with 4 for
39. Tony Hewston took the final
wicket with the aid of
Seabrook's third catch behind
the stumps and celebrations were
had by all.

 The
2XI made their usual end of
season trip to Little Kingshill,
won the toss, and elected to
bat. Having achieved all and
more than they expected, the
batting order was reversed,
allowing Nick 'The Wall'
Davenport to bat for runs
instead of a draw. Chalfont made
slow progress on an extremely
bouncy and variable pitch, but
runs from Dean Page and Andy
Amor, plus massive sixes from
Dave Andersen and Matt Woods,
meant that Chalfont finished at
tea on 184-9 with the skipper
not having to bat for only the
second time this season!
Kingshill are always a good
batting team, and this was no
exception this year. Hard toil
by Dean Page accounted for four
wickets, and Matt Woods, with a
low bouncing warm up ball
removed one of their most
dangerous batsmen. With overs
running out, Chalfont made
crucial breakthroughs from Webb
and Collins, but with two overs
left and just two runs to score,
Kingshill lobbed the ball over
the field and ran a hard two for
victory.
Dropped catches were the order
of the day, and the 2XI were
left rueing what might have
been.

TRIPPING OVER THE LACE GAUNTLET!
OK, so we have had a mixed
cricket season. There have been
highs and there have been lows
(and that's not just my batting
average)! However one of the
best games this season was the
Cricket vs. Hockey cricket
match. A game that was played in
the right spirit (tequila)! The
cricket team managed to nudge
the victory at the post but it
was a close run contest. Wanting
to get their own back, the
hockey section have limply
dropped the gauntlet in front of
us to replay them at hockey.
This has been snatched up by a
manly grasp and accepted by
yours truly. All I need now is
some help, (yes, believe it or
not I can't take them on all by
myself)!
The game will be a 8:30pm start
at Newlands Park on Friday 12th
September. All you need is a
pair of trainers and a white
shirt, (a cricket one will do).
I'm sure that we will be having
a few drinks after and maybe
even a few nibbles. It will be a
great way to round off the
season. Even if you don't want
to play, please come down and
cheer us on, we might need it,
although you never know when an
upset can occur! Please email me
on tony_hewston@hotmail.com or
call me on 07775 755244 if you
are interested.
