Gidea Park & Romford CC Sunday 2nd X1 v Rontays on Sun 07 Jul 2002 at 2pm
Gidea Park & Romford CC Won 112 Runs
In this 40 over game Park won the toss & decided to bat first, Chris Collier & Stewart Weatherill opened up. They got Park off to a cautious start. Tight bowling by the Rontays attack including Park players Jason Toogood & Andy D'Cruz left Park on only 70 off thier 1st 20 overs & 118 at the 30 over stage, but determind stroke play from James Redwood, Darren Batch & skipper Patient led Park to take 121 off the last 10 overs & gave Park an impressive total of 239.
The Rontays reply got off to a reasonable start although they struggled some what against wily vetaran off spinner Dave Osborne(2-24) from eight overs. Good bowling from Darren Batch, James Redwood & James Evans bowling leg spin for the first time, led to pressure being applied to the Rontays batting order. They found it hard keeping up with the required run rate & Park ran out comfortable winners.
