Timberscombe v Stoke St Gregory May 23 2009
Timberscombe ran out easy winners to complete their second win of the
season. Asked to bat first, the home side found the early going tough.
After 20 overs they had moved to 52 for the loss of one wicket. From
then on the innings took off. With skipper Paul Sparks leading the way
with 78, healthy contributions from opener Btuce Lang, 32 and Joe
Shooter a total of 186 for 4 was posted.
The Stoke reply never really got going. A wicket to the third ball of
the innings and tight bowling from Rob Golding and Will Giblett meant
the visitors were always up against it. A lively and hard hit
52 by M Vigar brought some respectability to the innings, but they
were always behind the required rate ending 57 runs short.
