Timberscombe v North Newton II 19 July 2010
Hinkley Point Cup Semi Final
Timberscombe saw off the challenge of North Newton thanks to some
devastating bowling and keen fielding.
Choosing to bat on a soft wicket the home side found runs hard to come
by. From their 18 overs they had only reached 100 with Paul Keal (28)
and Kev Godfrey the main contributors. Tight bowling from all the
Newton bowlers had kept the runs down and had made scoring hard.
An early direct hit run out by Tom Sparks in the first over lifted the home side.
Opening bowler Gary Archer proved very difficult to play. His 4 for 4
from his 5 overs took the game away from the visitors. Only J Stone
with 23 looked like troubling Timberscombe. When Kev Godfrey weighed in
with 4 for 8 the innings was done. Timberscombe ran out winners by 30
runs.
Timberscombe 100 for 5
Paul Keal 28
