Having won toss, the returning skipper chose to bat. The wicket was showing some wear and was proving a little lively at times so timing wasn’t easy. Paul (3) holed out at mid off whilst Gaurav(18) gloved a snorter to slip. Sanjay kicked his Chesham Bois career off with a handy 14 as he and Uma started to drag the score back towards a defendable total. Bennett, Prakash, Karthik all fell for low scores leaving Chesham Bois on 109-7 after 25 overs. Uma was fortunately still there and along with Jitender(6) and Vaibhav(34 no) dragged us up to a respectable 205 with Uma finishing 102 not out.

In reply, Vaibhav(8-2-42-2) and Karthik(5-0-30-0) got us underway with Vaibhav removing the openers. Sanjay (4-1-32-0) then worked from one end as the frugal and accurate Jitender (8-0-19-3) bowled his uninterrupted spell from the other. At the halfway mark, Widmer End St Maragret’s had over half the runs required with 6 wickets in hand so looked well set. Gaurav (8-1-28-1) and Jitender kept the run rate under control with Uma (7-0-32-0) and the returning Vaibhav finishing the job off leaving the opposition 9 runs short of the target.

As always, another great, enjoyable game of cricket with Widmer End St Margarets and looking forward to the return fixture later in the year.
