Hornsey Cricket Club 3rd Team v Winchmore Hill CC on Sat 14 Jun 2008 at 13.00
Hornsey Cricket Club Won
Winchmore Hill 206 all out 43.5 overs
Hornsey 207-7 off 55 overs (max 56)Nick Giles 15-4-43-5 Johnny Bruce 15-3-51-1
Hornsey won by 3 wickets
An excellent win for the 3rd XI chasing a decent total against a strong 3rd XI attack. Winchmore Hill scored freely to be all out in less than 44 overs.
With wickets for Tim Waine, Scott Haughton and run out.
Scoring was difficult when Hornsey batted against an accurate attack, but with 56 overs to get the runs there was no hurry. Alastair Thomas scored a patient 56, Johnny Bruce a patient 35, and the equation boiled down to 108 off the last 20, but crucially 8 wickets left.
Thomas and Bruce were out in consecutive overs with 15 overs left, but Joe Jemotte (17), Tim Waine (25*), Scott Haughton (13) paved the way for John "One Shot" Simon to hit the winning runs. John's previous shot, the sweep, has deserted him, and his shot is now the cut.
With 6 wanted off two overs, he proceeded to get hit on the toe, swish at a number of balls, and then finally the short wide one came and John smashed it over point for 4, game just about over.
A great win against a good club. That makes at least 5 consecutive victories against Winchmore Hill 3rd XI, who are always one of our better opponents!
