Rain spoils the 1sts' picnic on the Green, giving them no chance of getting the 182 needed to beat Staines & Laleham. The 2nds keep up their title hopes with a good win at Woking, while the 3rds leap to 4th place in the table with a one wicket win over Purley. The 4ths narrowly lose a match they should have won. A great day for the Club and for Richie Richardson on Sunday. In the first match TD just fail to beat the Lashings stars in a 20-20 match. Fine bowling and fielding restrict Lashings to 121 all out in 19.3 overs. Tyhames Ditton bat well but tight bowling from Chris Harris, Ed Giddings and Jason Gillespie mean that 19 are required from the last over. Richie Richardson and Mike Dixon both hit sixes but we finish 5 runs short Scoreboard Fall Of Wickets 32-1 ; 35-2 ; 36-3 ; 41-4 ; 45-5 ; 78-6 ; 103-7 ; 107-8 ; 110-9 ; 121-10 ; Bowling 1st XI Fall Of Wickets 48-1 ; 85-2 ; 88-3 ; -4 ; -5 ; -6 ; -7 ; -8 ; -9 ; -10 ; Bowling In the afternoon game Lashings make 221 in their 20 overs, too many for Richie Richardson's Invitation X1, despite the opening bowling partnership of Curtley Ambrose and Joel Gardner. Graeme Hick makes 50 to make up for his second ball duck in the earlier game. For the Invitation X1 a vintage partnership between Richie Richardson and Collis King, and later big hitting by Nick Jupp (TDCC) and Curtley Ambrose bring respectability to the score. This week is 'Cricket Week'. Past v Present on Wednesday, TD v Twickenham on Thursday and Long Ditton on Friday |
