Newlands and Northwood vs N2cc
Sunday 30th May 2010
Durrant Sports Ground Croxley Green

Unfortunately this excellent venue was to host a rain affected match.
Set in picturesque grounds, there were not too many report worthy events.
There were two debut’s on the day.
Liam who started off with some welcome off spin, and the new N2CC RTM Garden services cricket shirt,
as modelled by Bobby, who was to be in the wars fielding again…

N2 lost the toss, and were on bowling duties as normal.
However the ominous weather started to arrive, and the fielders bravely continued in first light rain,
and then steady rain for the last 40 minutes.
Newlands were bowled out before tea was due ; but just as play was about to resume the deluge began.
This was so bad that puddles immediately started forming in a dip of the wicket,
and an already sodden ground became unplayable for the rest of the day.
All players took refuge in the cars by the boundary, and most headed off home at that point ( including their scorebook )

However we have been forwarded the following bowling figures.

Bhatt 8 overs 2 maidens 0 wickets for 12 runs
Dodd 8 1 2 for 19
Butler 6 0 1 for 29
Liam 4 0 0 for 34
Dyer 7 0 4 for 28
