Scorecard

Chiswick & Latymer 3rd v AMERSHAM CC Saturday 2nd X1 on Sat 25 Jun 2005 at 1:30pm
AMERSHAM CC Won by 10 wickets

Match report An impressive set of gates but really a bit of a rubbish tip inside. Amersham got off to the best start by winning the toss and inserting the opposition on a damp pitch which was about as flat as the moon. It became clear that the batting on display was no match for Jon Lishman (2-28) and Mike Garvey (4-11).
Their opening spells had the batsmen in all sorts of difficulty and it seemed that a score of 50 was optimistic. A Lishman yorker was the fastest ball of the day to dismiss a young batsman first ball but it would have had many far better players struggling. Garvey bowled extremely well and was too good for the opposition on many occasions.

In true Amersham style, the foot came off the gas and some degree of partnership was allowed to develop. This may have been down to Chiswisk's secret weapon...an old, demented lady who took 15 minutes pushing her belongings around the boundary before settling down to sleep within the field of play. Nobody seemed quite sure of the rules if she had been hit but the opposition batting did not put her in much danger.

However, the introduction of Jeremy Good (3-10) brought the required termination to the innings. Never one to do things in half measures (other than when it comes to the purchasing of jugs), a stunning hat-trick was a great way to bring things to an end.

Then it was a case of the Langley father and son combination playing for their averages ... sorry ... batting very sensibly to ensure the 10 wicket victory. John (32*) drove the ball powerfully whilst Ben (45*) was much more adept at using the entire range of shots and careful placement to build his score.

An easy, valuable win. Well done to the bowlers, the Langleys and thanks for coming to everyone else.
