Rickmansworth III lost to Old Owens II

With just one front-line bowler, the Rickmansworth side needed to get wickets early, but Old Owens batted themselves to a winning position by putting up 100/1 and then finally a total of 172/6. Mark Raine, Phil Croft and Andy Milner each took 2 wickets, but the going was certainly tough.

Rickys reply saw Squires and Blackwell back in the pavilion with just 10 on the board and only Gavin Lock and Sachin Kumar reached double figures as Ricky were dismissed for a paltry 59. “We will strengthen the team for next Saturday” promised skipper Blackwell after the rout.
