THIS WEEK'S
SCORECARD
BCCC WINS 0
OPPOSITION WINS 4
Oh dear! - The season's
low point - hopefully!
Saturday
1st XI
Lost at home to Dartford by 8 wickets. Remain 7th in
the table, just 9 points above the relegation zone. Remaining matches
are away to Ashford and Catford & Cyphers and home to Harvel. However,
on paper both Downham & Bellingham and Chestfield have tougher run-ins.
It looks like this one's going down to the final game of the season.
Highlights - Put on a respectable 193-8 off 50 overs,
Robbie Williams top scoring with 51,
including 9 fours. Julian Roach also
recorded his highest score this season for the 1st XI with 42. In reply,
oppo batsman Gaurav Chabra, who also plays for Delhi, scored an unbeaten
114.
Saturday 2nd XI
Lost away to Canterbury by 5 wickets.
Remain in 4th
place in the table but now 26 points adrift of the promotion places.
Realistically now only 3 wins will be sufficient for promotion.
Remaining matches are home to Ashford and HSBC and away to Orpington.
Highlights - Skipper Dave
Luxford top scored with 33. Derek
Bloomfield took his season's haul to 32 wickets with 3-42 off 16
overs.
Saturday 3rd XI
Lost away to Gravesend by 11 runs.
Finish the season 4th in the table.
Highlights - The 3's won't be sorry that this may be
the final game they play at the Ex-Blues ground, all being well. Another
typically low scoring match with 20 wickets going down for 239 runs in
only 68 overs. Reduced the oppo to 125 all out with
James Todd taking 4-33 off 13.4 overs
(completing his most successful season for the 3's with the ball). In
reply the 3's finished just 11 runs short of victory,
Steve Viola top scoring with 39.
Saturday 4th XI
Lost away to Streatham & Marlborough by 8 wickets in
the 4's last game of the season. Remain 7th in the table but maximum
points for Belhus in their last game of the season could see the 4's
finish bottom.
Highlights - BCCC were put into bat and all began
well with Walks, spurred on by the prospect
of S&M, top scoring with 60. Opening partner Tony
McCann scored 45, completing a successful season for the 4's
finishing amongst the top 10 batting averages in the League. However,
with a weakened side due to 37 absent players, the innings collapsed to
151 all out in the last over and on a ground where the side batting
first hasn't won all season, the oppo polished off the runs with
relative ease.
