Hornsey Cricket Club 3rd Team v Shepherds Bush CC on Sat 19 Jul 2008 at 13.00
Hornsey Cricket Club Won

Hornsey 3rd XI 214 all out off 46.5 overs

Shepherds Bush 3rd XI 142 all out off 42.5 overs
Hornsey 10 points, Shepherds Bush 0 points

An excellent win get's the 3rd XI back on track after 3 consecutive losses. Marty Tucker's first ever ton in all cricket, 113, on a difficult batting track was enough to ensure a decent total. Alastair Thomas scored 34, no one else did anything much, although Ashraf Wali hit to good effect down the order. Marty hit 15 4s and 3 6s, after being perilously close to being out 1st ball (which would have made a season's king pair against the Bush). It was felt that 214 was enough and it just depended on whether we could bowl Shepherds Bush out. Johnny Bruce picked up 3 early wickets (12-2-31-3), the middle order held firm for a while as 40-4 became 100-5. Charlie Joseph started his spell erratically but then found his rhythm to clean up the tail with 5-42 of 12-ish overs as the batsmen didn't know whether to block or slog and ended up doing neither. "Rocker" Robinson, legendary long standing Bush player went first ball in bizarre circumstances. Huge appeal for LBW first ball, he immediately said "I hit that", before it was pointed out to him that it had flown straight to Tim Waine at silly mid-off! So that'll be out caught then, Rocker.
