Bagborough v Timberscombe 26 June 2010
A disappointing display with the bat brought about a first defeat for
the season as Bagborough out played league leaders Timberscombe.
Electing to bat the visitors were soon in trouble and never really
recovered. Wickets fell at regular intervals as poor shot selection was
the order of the day. The only real highlight was Matt Bowden’ s straight drive with the bat on auto pilot. A late flurry from Gary Archer was the only real
bright spot as Timberscombe ground out full batting points.
The home side set about their task with freedom with opener N Phillips
capitalising on any loose balls to make his runs. Despite two outstanding catches from Kev Godfrey and the skipper, the late flurry of
wickets came too late to change the outcome as Bagborough ran out easy
winners on the day.
